The episode of the MBC variety show “What Do You Do When You’re Bored?” (Nolmwo) airing on the 29th depicts Yoo Jae-suk, Haha, Heo Kyung-hwan, and Joo Woo-jae working to make ends meet without spending their own money.
Amid this, Joo Woo-jae brings up the story of how he recently took the stage as a secret guest at Kim Jong-kook’s concert. Coincidentally, Yoo Jae-suk also attended the concert as a hidden audience member that same day, and upon hearing that Yoo Jae-suk was there, Joo Woo-jae completed his performance while being conscious of his presence.
When Joo Woo-jae confessed, “Because of Jae-seok hyung’s gaze, I lost my place in the lyrics right after stepping on stage and fell apart,” Yoo Jae-seok chuckled, saying, “You didn’t even make eye contact with me. You didn’t even know where I was, but just the fact that I was there was enough to make you fall apart.”
Joo Woo-jae drew laughter by saying to Yoo Jae-suk, whose mere presence can shake one’s composure, “The real ‘breaker’ is Jae-suk. He goes around breaking everything.” Yoo Jae-suk also announced that he would attend Haha’s fan concert in September as a hidden audience member, revealing, “I secured a ticket a while ago.”
“What to Do?” is an open-format variety show featuring the laughter, fun, and heartwarming moments of the entertainment industry’s funniest stars—with no limits. It airs on the 29th at 6:30 p.m.
