Actor Jang Geun-suk colored Wednesday night with his dazzling wit and cheerful energy on MBC's 'Radio Star.'
Jang Geun-suk, who appeared on the special 'World Class, Only I Can See' of MBC's entertainment program 'Radio Star' that aired on the 16th, radiated an unmatched presence.
On that day, Jang Geun-suk drew attention by honestly revealing the reason for his appearance. He confessed that he is battling thyroid disease, saying, "After going through a painful time, I wanted to connect with more people and try various activities, so I really wanted to grant my appearance."
Later, Jang Geun-suk mentioned his past experience as the 'original love interest' of MC Jang Doyoun on a variety show, creating excitement. Although the concept was to talk on the phone all day without knowing each other's identities, Jang Geun-suk ultimately revealed that he went directly to where Jang Doyoun was to meet her, surprising the studio.
An episode with his close friend Lee Hong-ki also drew attention. Jang Geun-suk conveyed the fans' cheerful reactions, saying, "If it's taller than expected, it's Jang Geun-suk; if it's better at singing than expected, it's Lee Hong-ki," humorously explaining the relationship between the two, who are referred to as look-alikes. Furthermore, the honest talk that could only emerge from true friends brought great laughter throughout the show.
Jang Geun-suk reminisced about the time when he was mocked for having the image of 'the icon of pretense' and honestly shared the process of overcoming it. He caught attention by revealing that he faced the crisis with the thought, "If this is what only I can do, I must seize it" through his character Hwang Tae-kyung in the drama 'You're Beautiful.' The MCs were impressed by Jang Geun-suk's positive mindset.
At the end of the broadcast, Jang Geun-suk, who noted that he does not feel the spiciness well, demonstrated a different level of pride in spicy food by casually eating Cheongyang chili peppers, jalapeños, and mouse droppings peppers. He even successfully downed a cola in one shot while reciting lines from a drama, astonishing everyone.
In this way, Jang Geun-suk once again proved his prowess as a versatile entertainer, seamlessly moving between unrestrained comedic talent and genuine aspects. Jang Geun-suk, who is radiating presence in various fields, is scheduled to meet fans in Osaka, Japan, on the 22nd and 23rd with 'TEAM H RIGHT NOW 2025.'
