Former SECHSKIES members Ko Ji-yong, Jang Su-won, and Lee Jae-jin to reunite

Ko Ji-yong, Jang Su-won, and Lee Jae-jin will reunite for "THE TREE in INSPIRE - SECHSKIES' Untold Story" ahead of the group's 30th debut anniversary in 2027. The performance follows a long hiatus for the three former SECHSKIES members, who released an official poster for the event on the 30th.

Ko Ji-yong, a former member of the group SECHSKIES, is reuniting with Jang Su-won and Lee Jae-jin. As the three, who have been following their own paths for some time, have decided to stand before fans together through an official stage, expectations are growing among fans who cherish SECHSKIES memories. This meeting carries significance beyond a simple event, particularly as it takes place ahead of the group's 30th debut anniversary in 2027.

According to Mountain Movement Story on the 30th, Ko Ji-yong, Jang Su-won, and Lee Jae-jin released the official poster for "THE TREE in INSPIRE - SECHSKIES' Untold Story" and have begun full preparations for the performance. Attention is focused on this as their first official event together, where they will meet fans directly after a long hiatus.

The subtitle for this stage is "SECHSKIES' Untold Story." Rather than simply recreating past hit songs and activities, the event is designed as a space where the three members, having lived their own lives, will share stories they could not convey before through music and talk. An official stated, "The three, who have spent time in their own respective places for a long time, will prepare a place to meet fans again and unfold stories that could not be shared through music, talk, and memories."

Ko Ji-yong's participation is drawing particular interest. Having been active in various fields including broadcasting and business following SECHSKIES' activities, interest is high regarding what stories he will tell at this official event, given his long period of distance from group activities. The fact that he will take the stage with Jang Su-won and Lee Jae-jin is welcome news for fans who remember the past activities of SECHSKIES.

The reunion of the three is also notable because it has been arranged ahead of the 30th anniversary of SECHSKIES' debut. Having debuted in 1997, SECHSKIES left a significant mark on the music industry as an iconic group of the first generation of idols. Expectations are rising as to whether this event can serve as an opportunity to look back on past glory while sharing stories that could not be shared with fans for a long time.

Ko Ji-yong's recent personal matters are also drawing attention. He recently revealed that he divorced his ex-wife Heo Yang-im approximately two years ago and stated that Heo Yang-im holds custody of their son. As the divorce was revealed belatedly, legal proceedings regarding child support and visitation rights are also underway.

According to Ko Ji-yong's side, Heo Yang-im filed a provisional injunction and a petition for a visitation rights judgment against Ko Ji-yong on the 5th of last month regarding issues of child support payments and visitation rights. In response, Ko Ji-yong's side filed a provisional injunction on the 16th of the same month requesting a prohibition on interference with visitation and a prohibition on posting photos and videos of the child. As the claims of both sides are in conflict, specific facts and legal judgments will need to be confirmed through the proceedings.

As the three individuals who share SECHSKIES memories stand on the same stage after a long time, attention is focused on what kind of stories and emotions this performance will convey. It is expected to be an opportunity for Ko Ji-yong to embark on new official activities and a special time for fans to face the members they shared an era with once again.
