Singer and broadcaster Tei is leaving MBC FM4U's "Good Morning FM with Tei" after three and a half years as host.
Tei announced Monday during the show's opening segment that the Nov. 22 broadcast would be the last. "I will step down from the DJ seat," Tei said, adding a plan to "connect with more people through concerts and new albums as a singer."
Tei decided to leave after discussions with the production team in order to focus on recording a new album.
"I want to hold more concerts and release some albums as a singer and get closer to people that way," Tei said. "And if the opportunity comes, I will return."
Tei's final live broadcast will air Saturday, with the Nov. 22 episode marking the official end of the run. A successor has not yet been named.
"Good Morning FM," which launched in 2003, is one of MBC's flagship morning radio programs. Past DJs include Kim Sung-joo, Jeon Hyun-moo, Noh Hong-chul, Kim Je-dong and Jang Sung-kyu.
Tei took over as DJ of "Good Morning FM" in May 2023 and received the top prize in the radio category at the 2025 MBC Broadcasting Entertainment Awards.
