It wasn't as impactful as 'Park Myung-soo's Ambush Attack' 16 years ago, but 'Yoo Jae-suk's Ambush Attack' was also successful.

The MBC program 'How Do You Play?' which aired on the 22nd, was organized as Yoo Jae-suk's '2025 version of the Ambush Attack.' This is the 2025 version of Park Myung-soo's 'Ambush Attack' that aired on the 2009 program 'Infinite Challenge.' It is a nationwide support project for self-employed individuals struggling during an economic downturn.

The first operation area was a tteokbokki restaurant in Ewha. Yoo Jae-suk, Ha Ha, Lee Yi-kyung, Park Jin-joo, and Imi-joo called their close friends, while Cho Sae-ho, Nam Chang-hee, Lim Woo-il, Dean, Patricia, and the 'I Love You Mom' theater team all gathered together.

The business owner's hopeful sales target for the day was 800,000 won, but the actual sales amounted to a remarkable 1,467,000 won. The owner smiled and said, "It feels like a dream. I hope I can at least cover my labor costs, even if it’s not a lot. I’m really grateful. I feel good. I missed the sounds of students bustling around when I first started my business. Today is beyond expectations and imagination. It feels like a dream."

For the second operation, members included Park Kwang-jae, Seung Heon, Sleepy, Lee Jin-sung, Han Sang-won, Vixx Ken, and Kim Min-young. A total of 45 people, including taxi drivers and junior comedians, gathered and visited a pork rib house in Eunpyeong District. The sales goal was 2 million won.

However, there was a shortage of meat. Unfortunately, sales reached only 1,715,000 won. The owner smiled and said, "It's a downturn. Sales are down by half. Many are saying it's so tough they're dying. But today, my spouse, child, and I are finally smiling together. Thank you."

Producer Kim Jin-yong noted before the broadcast to OSEN, "We were looking for a way to support self-employed individuals, provide encouragement, and bring laughter, which led us to the idea of the Ambush Attack. There’s no reason to deliberately avoid a good precedent. I hope that, as many people are still visiting, they watch happily with a welcoming heart."

Although there weren't any big laughs like 'Park Myung-soo's Ambush Attack' in this broadcast, the smiles of the self-employed individuals who experienced a surge in sales were more than enough.
