Comedian Lee Sang-hoon appears on MBC's Omniscient Interfering View to prove he is top tier in the toy industry. The unique fandom of the "top otaku" will guide viewers into the astonishing new world of Shinsegae.
Episode 389 of the MBC variety program Omniscient Interfering View, airing tomorrow the 14th (Sat) (planned by Kang Young-sun, directed by Kim Yoon-jip·Jeon Jae-wook·Kim Hae-ni·Jung Dong-sik·Lee Da-un, writer Yeo Hyun-jeon), will reveal the madness(?)-filled daily life of comedian Lee Sang-hoon, the self-proclaimed top-tier toy otaku of Korea.
In the episode, comedian Lee Sang-hoon experiences an incident that immediately proves his 'GD-level' status in the toy industry. A one-of-a-kind sample figure of "K-pop Demon Hunters" Hentricks, said to be worth about "1억 원", was delivered to Lee Sang-hoon. This ultra-rare sample, handcrafted by the sculptor for final pre-release fixes, demonstrates Lee Sang-hoon's high standing simply by allowing him to see and give feedback on the sample in advance.
The studio's panel fell silent at the sight of the real figure, whose painstaking detail matches its jaw-dropping price, and they could not help but praise Lee Sang-hoon, saying, "He's the GD of the figure world." Lee Sang-hoon then took out his "companion robot." As it transformed and even did push-ups in response to his voice, Lee Sang-hoon's eyes lit up with delight, while his wife and pet dog showed indifferent reactions, creating a humorous contrast.
Lee Sang-hoon's unparalleled fandom extends beyond his personal domain to involve others on a grand scale. Because he has many block toys he wants to collect but lacks time to assemble them himself, a so-called "assembly task force" is operated on his behalf. It was revealed that the wife of fellow comedian Park Young-jin serves as the ace of this task force, helping Lee Sang-hoon, which surprised viewers. The outlandish "mutual aid" system between acquaintances who want to enjoy the fun of assembly and Lee Sang-hoon, who wants exhibitions, will offer viewers a fresh kind of entertainment.
From the moment he greeted the 1억 won figure to the outlandish assembly system, this episode — filled with sights beyond imagination and containing Lee Sang-hoon's 25 years of fandom — can be seen on Omniscient Interfering View at 11:10 p.m. that day.
