In the fifth episode of SBS’s Tuesday variety show “Mountain Village Bachelor Young-woong,” airing on the 21st, viewers can look forward to an even more diverse lineup of entertainment, ranging from a listening party for unreleased tracks to an epic showdown where pride is on the line. The three will heat up the atmosphere by playing unreleased tracks they’re currently working on for the first time. Im Young-woong will also candidly share behind-the-scenes stories about the songwriting process. Meanwhile, a commotion ensues when Nucksal loses his cell phone. Reports indicate that Im Young-woong, as the host, will step in to help the stranded Nucksal, showcasing his skills as the mountain village’s go-to problem-solver. Additionally, the mountain bachelors’ first trip to town begins. Their excitement at going out is short-lived, however, as a series of wagers begins with a game where lunch and coffee money are on the line. After shifting into full-on game mode, they eventually challenge even the production crew to a match, culminating in a highly anticipated footvolley showdown at a local elementary school with “two-star Hanwoo beef worth 600,000 won” on the line. Led by ace Lim Young-woong—a “self-proclaimed and universally recognized soccer player”—the mountain village bachelors entered the match with confidence, but they soon faced a crisis when the production crew, a lineup of “soccer experts” with surprisingly impressive skills, took the field. After a fiercely contested match, all eyes are on whether the mountain village bachelors will be able to keep their wallets intact. Their burning competitive spirit even spills over into a bonus game where the prize is “treating the elementary school to fried chicken,” raising anticipation over who the “Gangwon Province Chicken Man”—who boasted recklessly only to shoot himself in the foot—might be. As evening falls after the fierce competition, Kwak Beom—who has secured the title of official mountain village chef—confidently takes the lead on the main dish. Not only does he boldly challenge Cha Seung-won, the very epitome of cooking variety shows, saying, “I’ll go head-to-head with Cha Seung-won,” but he also proposes launching a cooking program under his own brand, “Kwak’s Kitchen.” However, his confidence was short-lived; as smoke billowed from the hearth, the set instantly turned into a chaotic mess. Reports indicate that the smoke was so thick it obscured visibility, putting even the production crew at risk of being “smoked out.” Gaining attention as a “pollution-free, healing variety show,” *Mountain Village Bachelor Young-woong* delivers wholesome laughter by blending singer Im Young-woong’s never-before-seen daily life in his mountain cottage with the delightful chemistry between him and his friends, which grows more prominent with each episode. Episode 5 will air on SBS at 9 p.m. on the 21st.
