Last year, the 20th anniversary of 'Infinite Challenge,' which was overlooked by the '2024 MBC Entertainment Awards.' To soothe fans' disappointment, Park Myung-soo, Jung Joon-ha, and Jeon Jin are preparing a live broadcast with 'MuDo Kids.'
The MBC Entertainment Awards, which celebrated its 30th anniversary at the end of last year, was held under the theme 'Our entertainment, our story,' linking the past and present in an awards ceremony. Numerous nostalgic entertainments, such as 'Real Men,' 'We Got Married,' 'High Kick,' 'Knee Drop Guru,' and 'Living Together,' were discussed, and the respective grants appeared as presenters, evoking nostalgia.
However, there was not a single mention of 'Infinite Challenge,' which was a flagship entertainment program for MBC and referred to as a 'national entertainment.' Yoo Jae-suk appeared as a presenter for 'Living Together' alongside Park Kyung-rim, and Yang Se-hyung took the stage with Lee Sang-yong of 'Stage of Friendship,' but there was no direct consolidation with 'MuDo.'
This was also a point hard for viewers to understand. MBC achieved commercial success by selling calendar products to commemorate the 20th anniversary of 'Infinite Challenge,' and clips from 'Infinite Challenge' remain popular content on the official YouTube channel 'Five Minutes Later.' As such, the thorough neglect at the awards ceremony provoked disappointment beyond mere regret.
In the meantime, Park Myung-soo, Jung Joon-ha, and Jeon Jin prepared a special meeting with fans. On the evening of the 29th at 8 p.m., a live broadcast of 'Infinite Challenge Live, with everything' will take place on Naver Chijijik, where the reunion of HaWASu (Park Myung-soo and Jung Joon-ha) and Baekman-dori Jeon Jin after 15 years will be realized.
Jeon Jin, who made a remarkable presence appearing on 'MuDo' for about 1 year and 4 months starting from the 'Run Away with the Money Bag' special in 2008. In this broadcast, it seems that they will watch together iconic moments from 'MuDo,' such as the legendary badminton shuttlecock scene, and share heartfelt memories.
Particularly, in April, Park Myung-soo and Jung Joon-ha held a '20th Anniversary Live of Infinite Challenge,' drawing enthusiastic responses from fans with their unique chemistry. Comments such as 'the best gift for MuDo Kids' and 'I am so glad to see this combination' are already flooding in.
Despite being thoroughly overlooked at the awards ceremony, 'Infinite Challenge' remains a continuing phenomenon. In the absence of Yoo Jae-suk, HaWASu and Jeon Jin plan to once again evoke the 'MuDo spirit' and maintain close memories with fans.
