Singer DinDin revealed that he reflects on his past criticisms of the World Cup national team and coach.
A production press conference for TikTok’s original content ‘Tiki Tiki Taka Taka Talk Talk Show’ (hereafter ‘Tiki Taka Show’) was held on the 21st at The Link Hotel in Guro-gu, Seoul. Former soccer player and entertainer Ahn Jung-hwan, singer DinDin, comedian Lee Eun-ji, and PD Kim Dong-wook attended the event.
‘Tiki Taka Show’ is a talk variety show that explores various topics in a battle format through the medium of soccer. As TikTok’s first original long-form content in Korea, Ahn Jung-hwan, DinDin, and Lee Eun-ji will appear as MCs.
DinDin shared why he decided to join the program. He explained, “Since it’s a soccer-related variety show, I felt a sense of reflection regarding my past actions,” adding, “I decided to appear because I wanted to sincerely learn about soccer and cheer for the team this time.” Previously, DinDin faced significant backlash for his sharp criticisms of the national team and coach ahead of the ‘2022 FIFA Qatar World Cup.’
He also predicted the results for the upcoming World Cup. He said, “You might think it’s unrealistic, but I hope they win the championship.” He added, “I believe the current team’s strength is great. They will definitely make it to the round of 32, and I think they can even advance to the round of 16.”
‘Tiki Taka Show’ will be premiered on the 25th at 8 PM on the official TikTok Korea account and Ahn Jung-hwan’s TikTok account ‘Ahn Jung-hwan 19’.
