In the episode of 'Class that Crosses the Line,' Jeon Hyun-moo and Yoo Byung-jae faced a crisis of possibly having their Korean passports seized by Lucky.
Aired on Feb. 5 at 9 p.m., the MBC variety program 'Class that Crosses the Line' (planned by Jeong Yoon-jeong, directed by Han Seung-hoon, Byun Da-hee, written by Kim Soo-ji) is themed 'Since I Was Born, Let's Travel Joseon.' Seol Min-seok, Jeon Hyun-moo, and Yoo Byung-jae shared stories about the 'original Koreans' who first came to Joseon about 400 years ago with Lucky, an Indian-born broadcaster, and his foreign friends.
Lucky noted, "There would be many Koreans who would have their passports taken away if they took the naturalization test," bringing up the infamous difficulty of the test. As an example, Yoo Byung-jae had to answer the question about "What are the four major holidays in Korea" and felt embarrassed for not being able to mention all four. Jeon Hyun-moo teased him, saying, "Bring your passport," while Yoo Byung-jae awkwardly laughed, saying, "Is the level this high? It's too difficult."
Additionally, Lucky surprised everyone by asking, "Where is King Sejong the Great's tomb?" The Korean nationals, Jeon Hyun-moo and Yoo Byung-jae, were unable to answer, which sparked laughter.
Lucky, who is more Korean than Koreans, captured everyone's attention with his sincere interest in fortune-telling. He confessed, "I went to see a fortune teller, and in my past life, I was King Sejong the Great's chef." His fortune-telling, which is quite eerie as he is currently running a restaurant in Korea, left everyone in stitches. Jeon Hyun-moo acknowledged, "The time I've spent living in Korea is longer than the time I spent in India. He's almost Korean."
