Expat TV personality and France native Robin Deiana from the popular JTBC talk show “Non-Summit” will be showing off his music talents by collaborating with the folk-acoustic duo Sosim Boys on their upcoming EP.

The album, titled “Shining Star,” is slated to drop on Friday, according to an announcement by Doctor Nine Media on Wednesday. On the EP, Deiana will take on the role of a French rapper. The album is also said to have been produced with the help of local R&B stars K.will, Eric Nam and Dia to create a sound that best suits the styles of the Sosim Boys.

Deiana’s appearance on the album will not be his first attempt to make his mark in the Korean music industry. The former model and B-boy dancer and one of the current hosts of MBC every1’s fashion program “The Most Beautiful Days,” Deiana previously auditioned for the popular TV trot singing audition program “Trot X.”
