Big Bang member Seung-ri is now serving as an MC for two TV shows in Japan, according to YG Entertainment, Big Bang’s agency.

Seung-ri is hosting “V. I. FROM BIGBANG,” a reality show broadcast by Japanese music channel Space Shower TV. The show, which premiered last Thursday, illustrates the steps Seung-ri takes to make his own show.

Seung-ri also serves as the special MC of “Sakigake! Ongaku Banzuke Eight,” a popular music variety show of Fuji Television.

“Seung-ri recently interviewed Oguri Shun, the main actor of Fuji TV’s drama, and Akira, a member of Japanese group EXILE, while on this TV show,” YG said. “The production crew of the show picked Seung-ri as a special MC after watching his interviews with Japanese stars.”
