Broadcaster Pungja exposed the intense filming conditions of "Repeat Restaurant."
On the 20th, a video titled "Hilarious new recruit appears l Desperate mouth teaser" was uploaded to the "Studio Suje" channel.
That day, Pungja, as the mainstay of "Studio Suje," met and talked with Kim Jiyu, who joined as the new MC of "Desperate mouth" replacing Lee Eunji, who stepped down due to a busy schedule.
Pungja said, "Because it's the program 'Desperate mouth', I'll give you one tip," and warned, "This company is f**king tough," drawing attention. Kim Jiyu was flustered and asked, "Is that a tip?" Pungja confessed, "My first shoot took 10 hours. My ankle gave out, I slept on the street, it was so hard. But that was sincere."
Upon hearing this, Kim Jiyu suddenly packed her bag and moved toward the entrance, and Pungja asked, "Even so, they said, 'It can't be helped. Viewers, our subscribers want to see this,'" and toward Kim Jiyu asked, "Where are you going?" which caused laughter.
Pungja said, "'Desperate mouth' will be like that too. You must follow the special schedules of the guests and capture the vividness in everything," and Kim Jiyu said, "I actually like the idea of capturing that vividness. It resonates. Because it's not something viewers can do. Since it's not something they can see, I think it's right that we have to run really hard to capture it vividly," showing determination.
Then Pungja said, "I also said that at first. I said I would work really hard and that I would step down after three episodes. You have to experience that hardship. We love content that we obtained by running on foot and working really hard," and Kim Jiyu exclaimed, "Right. Can't you feel it while watching? But this is really amazing. I checked the views of 'Repeat Restaurant' and came. The numbers over the years are unbelievable."
Pungja hinted at stepping down, saying, "'Desperate mouth' should at least bring that level of people. It has to pull strongly. Only then can I appear without feeling burdened. At this company. If I leave this company now, the company will stagger. I hope you can be the one to take over."
In response, Kim Jiyu drew a line, saying, "I'm more of a behind-the-scenes person," and asked about incentives, "Doesn't 'Repeat Restaurant' have a large equity stake (in Studio Suje)? Is there separate pocket money or under-the-table payments?" Pungja said, "What are entertainers most worried about? The company doesn't shortchange pay. But they also don't give more," drawing a line.
Kim Jiyu was moved and asked, "Did you come here unpaid (today)?" and Pungja replied, "Sorry. I get paid," and revealed, "We do 'Also-buy house' with our own money. Really," which surprised viewers. In response, the production team added a caption stating, "The production team also purchases items for 'Also-buy house' with personal funds," adding to the humor.
