Kim Dong-hyun and Oh Sang-wook face off in a lower-body strength showdown for pride.
tvN "Handsome Guys" (directed by Ryu Ho-jin, Yoon In-hoe, Lee Seung-hwan / hereinafter "Handsomez") is a cheerful reality-variety show about five men who, having had no lack, suddenly become "lacking." The raw spectacle created by the realistic situation of "insufficient (不足) living" and the matured chemistry of the five members, who shine even more in extreme situations, deliver effortless laughter.
In the 40th episode airing today (11th), Cha Tae-hyun, Kim Dong-hyun, Lee Yi-kyung, Shin Seung-ho, and Oh Sang-wook, who on a trip they thought was an MT were struck like a bolt from the blue by the first insufficiency of their living — "air conditioner shortage" — face the final day of the MT and wage an intense battle over the long-awaited escape from shortage.
They compete in four different individual games, and the winners escape the tribe in order to savor the blissful paradise. Among them, "UFC world ranking No. 6" Kim Dong-hyun and "fencing world ranking No. 1" Oh Sang-wook raise excitement by staging a physical showdown of the century with the "pickaxe endurance" challenge.
The "pickaxe endurance" is a game in which players press each other's thighs with their elbows and the person who endures the longest without making a sound wins. As soon as the event was revealed, spectators exclaimed that the confident smiles of Kim Dong-hyun and Oh Sang-wook stepping into the ring were "essentially the final." Entering combat mode, Oh Sang-wook seriously explored Kim Dong-hyun's thigh with his elbow and said, "This is like a sumo-belt match," heating up the atmosphere at the competition site.
Who among Kim Dong-hyun and Oh Sang-wook, owners of world-class lower bodies, will be the one to enjoy the escape-to-paradise along with the title of "strongest lower-body strength" is drawing attention to the main broadcast of "Handsomez."
tvN "Handsomez" airs every Thursday at 8:40 p.m., and the 40th episode airs today (11th).
