[Edaily Starin Choi Hee-jae Reporter] Former professional gamer and TV personality Hong Jin-ho and singer Mimi will appear on “No To” to showcase their variety show skills.

The episode of tvN’s “Amazing Saturday” (Nolto) airing on the 29th is set to captivate viewers as Hong Jin-ho and Mimi showcase their unpredictable chemistry with the “Do-Re-Mi” cast.
Making his first appearance on “Amazing Saturday,” Hong Jin-ho boasts, “Quizzes are my specialty,” showcasing his genius for brain games. However, his confidence is short-lived as he runs into trouble due to pronunciation issues. When the Doremis, having caught Hong Jin-ho’s slip-up, murmur, “Are you really a genius?” he retorts, “Just figure it out roughly,” drawing laughter.
But soon, as if resigning himself to the situation, he shared an anecdote about how he once had to do a dubbed interview due to his pronunciation, and the Doremis burst into laughter at this bittersweet story. Mimi also livened up the atmosphere with her unique word choices and unfiltered banter, and drew attention by showing exceptional enthusiasm for promotion, especially since she’s embarking on a solo career 11 years after the group’s debut.
Before the main game begins, the second chef from “No-To’s Best Eats Street” makes an appearance, heating up the studio. Seeing the chef—who had flown in from Italy the day before specifically for “No-To”—the Doremis exclaim, “This is insane!” as if they couldn’t believe their eyes.
In the ensuing appetizer game, the “This Is the Kind of Person I Am” quiz, the Doremis’ valiant efforts to land the correct answers—using wit, quick thinking, and a bit of luck—add to the laughter, undeterred by the polar opposite drawing skills of the two guest questioners.
Furthermore, Hong Jin-ho—true to his status as a “second-place icon”—says he feels a kinship with Nucksal, the runner-up on a music survival show, but then delivers a blunt truth by asking, “Are you still rapping?” Meanwhile, Mimi’s variety show charm, which has had viewers in stitches with her various “innocent yet crazy” moments, is expected to provide plenty of laughs.
A fierce battle is also expected in the team speed dictation challenge. Rumor has it that, in their quest to win the Italian meal, the two teams not only tried to outmaneuver each other but also engaged in a psychological battle, even resorting to unimaginable foul play. It even reached a point where Hong Jin-ho was caught on camera kneeling down and exclaiming, “If it was going to be like this, I wouldn’t have appeared on ‘Play Saturday.’” All eyes are now on how this fierce showdown between the two teams will conclude.
In the “Dialogue Box Quiz—Drama & Movie Edition,” the Doremis’ unique acting talents will be showcased in full force. In addition to Shin Dong-yup’s serious acting and Moon Se-yoon’s comedic performance, Hong Jin-ho is also taking on an unexpected acting challenge. Furthermore, anticipation is building to see what twists Taeyeon—who voluntarily joined the acting challenge and mastered a variety of characters—and Mimi—who took an unexpected gamble for her promotional performance—will deliver.
“Fun Saturday” is a cross-generational music variety show where contestants compete in a song-lyric dictation game for a chance to win popular foods from markets across the country. It airs every Saturday at 7:30 p.m.
