tvN's Handsome Guys will feature a surprise appearance by "Waterbomb goddess" Kwon Eun-bi.
tvN's Handsome Guys (directed by Ryu Ho-jin, Yoon In-hoe, Lee Seung-hwan / hereinafter "Handsomez") is a variety show in which five men who seemed to lack nothing suddenly become "lacking." It is a cheerful, hard-fought variety show about the five men overcoming this challenge. The raw laughter and the members' well-developed chemistry that are likely to emerge in a situation of "shortage" are creating explosive synergy and earning praise.
In the 42nd episode airing today (25th), Handsomez Cha Tae-hyun, Kim Dong-hyun, Lee Yi-kyung, Shin Seung-ho and Oh Sang-wook, who face a thunderbolt-like "fashion shortage life," struggle to regain their handsome visuals ahead of an important schedule: a "fan signing" held at a large shopping mall.
Amid this, "Handsomez" member's shabby morning is shaken up by a surprise visit from "summer queen" Kwon Eun-bi. Shin Seung-ho, who spots Kwon Eun-bi arriving with breakfast for Handsomez, becomes choked up and asks the production team, "Why are you going this far?", and Kim Dong-hyun, left with only an undershirt and pajamas as a "fashion pauper," makes people laugh by trying to shrink his large frame and hiding behind his younger members.
Meanwhile, on that day Kwon Eun-bi serves as the acting acting judge for the Handsomez members. A team game called "Ready Action," a group competition that can win back the suits the members need for the "fan signing" schedule, takes place. In the game, members each draw a numbered card from 1 to 7, perform a skit with intensity proportional to the number they drew, and Kwon Eun-bi guesses each member's number; if she successfully ranks all five according to acting intensity, the team wins.
Among them, Oh Sang-wook draws attention by revealing an unusual passion for acting. The members receive the prompt "What is your reaction when a Handsomez member makes an unfunny remark during filming?" and perform at varying intensities; when Oh Sang-wook's acting fails to elicit the expected reaction, he even comes up with an ad-lib, "I should have done a eating setting," solidifying himself as an "acting prodigy."
But when Lee Yi-kyung snaps, "It's the same as before," at the acting that still falls short even after a retry, judge Kwon Eun-bi also delivers a blunt line, "You should practice fencing hard," turning the surroundings into a sea of laughter. However, the determined "acting prodigy" Oh Sang-wook delivers surprising method acting in the next round under the prompt "acting while urgently holding it in at the restroom," astonishing 31-year veteran senior actor Cha Tae-hyun, according to reports.
Expectation is building for the chaotic acting party that Handsomez members and Kwon Eun-bi will create together, and viewers are watching to see whether the Handsomez members will be able to attend the fan signing in presentable condition when the episode airs.
tvN's Handsomez airs every Thursday at 8:40 p.m., and today (25th) the 42nd episode is being broadcast.
