Whenever Possible, Yoo Jae-suk recalls Namgoong-min's nickname from 20 years ago.
The SBS variety program 'Whenever Possible' (directed by Choi Bo-pil, written by Chae Jin-a) is a 'gap strategy' variety show that gifts luck during brief moments found in everyday life. The 26th episode, which will air on the evening of the 17th (Tuesday) at 9 p.m., features Namgoong-min, Jeon Yeo-bin, and Lee Seol as 'gap friends', bringing addictive laughter with their witty banter around Yeouido.
On this day, Yoo Jae-suk surprises Namgoong-min by recalling a 20-year-old nickname. Expressing his joy, Yoo Jae-suk says, "Min, it's been a long time," to which Namgoong-min replies, "You usually called me Gung-min. Please stick to what you used to do." After all, Yoo Jae-suk understood Namgoong-min's surname as 'Nam' and first name as 'Gung-min', calling him 'Gung-min'. When Yoo Jae-suk says, "Didn't we see each other since 'X-Man'? I guess I've gotten used to calling you 'Gung-min', 'Gung-min' since then," Namgoong-min chuckles, saying, "It feels weird when you call me Min."
Meanwhile, Namgoong-min cannot hide his surprise at his first outdoor variety show appearance. Acting as a senior in entertainment, he eagerly encourages Jeon Yeo-bin and Lee Seol, saying, "Come closer and join the conversation," diving into enthusiastic 'X-Man'-style entertainment coaching. However, shortly after, he is shocked by the unexpected remarks from the host during the game. Namgoong-min reportedly could not help but comment, "Wow, entertainment has become this free," reflecting his first experience of the raw side of variety shows. Yoo Jae-suk reportedly laughs boisterously, saying, "Broadcasting has changed a lot, hasn't it?" while witnessing Namgoong-min's reactions, which have flipped from a seasoned variety star to a 'newborn' in entertainment.
Indeed, what surprise declaration from the host startled Namgoong-min? The escalating excitement toward the broadcast of 'Whenever Possible' is fueled by the relentless humorous back-and-forth between 'variety masters' Yoo Jae-suk and Yoo Yeon-seok and the 'recently clueless newcomers' Namgoong-min, Jeon Yeo-bin, and Lee Seol.
