Actor Chae Sung-won perfectly overcame the challenging period.
The SBS program "Time to Shine," which premiered on the 6th, depicted Chae Sung-won and Gong Myoung, along with Yoo Jae-suk and Yoo Yeon-seok, spreading luck and laughter throughout the alleys of Cheongdam-dong in Gangnam, Seoul.
Returning with "Time to Shine," Yoo Jae-suk and Yoo Yeon-seok began chatting animatedly from the start. Yoo Jae-suk, who opened the event at a park in Cheongdam-dong, humorously questioned Yoo Yeon-seok after he mentioned he graduated from the nearby Kyunki High School, saying, "Why did you go there?" Yoo Jae-suk greeted the audience, saying, "The heat is tough, and the cold season is challenging. I'm greeting you at a time that's easy to wander around," and Yoo Yeon-seok laughed, saying, "You might think that I only come around when the weather is nice."
Next, Chae Sung-won and Gong Myoung, who collaborated on Netflix's "Lee & Ko," appeared as guests. Chae Sung-won, acting as if he were the MC of "Time to Shine," warmly greeted Yoo Jae-suk and Yoo Yeon-seok and also showed a close relationship with the staff. However, Chae Sung-won humorously remarked, "I heard that 'Time to Shine' has gone up to season 3, but is this kind of program really suitable for that?" and "Is Yoo Yeon-seok an MC? Yoo Jae-suk can do it alone, can't he?" He also foreshadowed his performance that day, stating, "The people I compliment are the ones I dislike" in his characteristic tsundere style.
Gong Myoung mentioned that he met Yoo Yeon-seok in a music video and had collaborated with Yoo Jae-suk on "Running Man." Gong Myoung said, "I filmed with Yoo Yeon-seok in Jeju Island and he bought me sea snail soup. I was really grateful because it was my first time someone senior bought me something," while Yoo Yeon-seok laughed and said, "I invested early thinking it would go well." When Gong Myoung noted that he was popular among women, Yoo Jae-suk chimed in, saying, "Chae Sung-won was also extremely popular. It was a phenomenon. It's indescribable."
The four continued their conversation while taking a bus. As Yoo Yeon-seok and Gong Myoung found common ground in 'camping,' Yoo Jae-suk threw a direct question, saying, "Considering we're close, you didn't contact me enough," while Chae Sung-won humorously replied, "Yoo Jae-suk and I communicate frequently. We're closer than Yoo Hae-jin." The first guest they met at the end of their conversation was a dessert journalist from a confectionery publishing house that has existed since the 1980s. They displayed the desserts they developed and covered, saying, "We've tasted most desserts in Seoul," which drew surprise.
After finishing discussions about the dessert journalist, they proceeded to the main game. During the process where the guest could draw a bonus coupon allowing them to participate in missions on behalf of the members, the guest said, "The fortune showed only 20% good," to which Chae Sung-won replied, "I'm in a challenging period. I enter this challenging period." However, the die that Chae Sung-won rolled showed the highest number, '2,' and he humorously declared that he had just overcome the challenging period. During the mission named "Jam Top Lid Tossing," Chae Sung-won had a successful performance, advancing through three levels and presenting generous gifts.
In a pleasant mood after the first meeting with the guest, the four enjoyed lunch at Yoo Jae-suk and Chae Sung-won's favorite meat restaurant. While dining, Yoo Jae-suk commented, "I think I've intruded on a meal between model seniors and juniors," to which Chae Sung-won humorously replied, "Aren't you a model? I heard that Yoo Hae-jin is also a model."
After lunch, they met the second guest, a wedding planner. The guest, who has been a wedding planner for 13 years and is now a Deputy Minister, emphasized that preparations for a wedding should begin a year and a half in advance. When the wedding planner discussed the occupational hazards of their job, Yoo Jae-suk said, "Having seen many weddings, I tend to evaluate them internally without realizing it when I go to weddings," which brought laughter. The following mission, "Kick the Baseball Shoe While Wearing Heels," started with the shadow of "FC Development," succeeding in the first level but experiencing disappointment in the second level.
