The youngest member Wooyoung of Netflix's Screwballs reveals the steadfast analog life of a human being even in the era of AI transformation.
Netflix variety show Screwballs is a program that captures the joys and sorrows of life assembled without screws by the top 99% of talents and is released every Sunday at 5 p.m. The younger-line made up of Jinkyung and Sook, two older sisters, and Seho, Woojae, and Wooyoung presents strong and diverse chemistry, and the somewhat ditzy character variety show they present has formed a solid fan base by delivering a feast of laughter every week, games·makeup·punishments·travel·mukbang·talk and sometimes even emotion. Following season 1 'Screwballs: In Search of the Lost Screw', season 2 'In Search of the Lost Steering Wheel', and 'Season 3 Screwballs disassembly show', 'Screwballs season 4: The Rival' is also receiving warm love.
The seventh episode of Screwballs, which is released on the 5th, will feature Kim Sook, Hong Jin Kyung, Cho Sae-ho, Joo Woojae and Wooyoung appearing as human representatives challenging the era of AI transformation, engaging in a great rivalry with AI. Among them, Wooyoung draws attention by revealing that he is an ultimate analog human who surpasses his older siblings.
On the day, the five members appear with the concept of OO humans who confront AI, creating laughs with a parade of makeup that crosses the limits of humanity: 'frozen human' Kim Sook, '홍익인간' Hong Jin Kyung, 'vegetable human' Cho Sae-ho, 'spider man' Joo Woojae, and 'guilty human' Wooyoung. When the members learn that their opponent is AI, they begin to stir at the shocking identity of their rival, and Wooyoung attracts attention by casually revealing, "I don't use AI much." It is the youngest Wooyoung of Screwballs, not anyone else, who reveals the ultimate analog persona. When Joo Woojae exposed the youngest's old-fashioned(?) daily life by saying, "Wooyoung still goes to the bank and uses paper when sending money," Wooyoung added, "I handle most C/S by directly listening to the voice of a counselor through ARS," leaving everyone astounded.
Meanwhile, following Wooyoung, Kim Sook revealed the hidden true analog lineup, saying, "Only two members of the Screwballs cast applied for roaming service by phone. Hong Jin Kyung and Cho Sae-ho." Then Hong Jin Kyung confidently claimed, "If you want to use unlimited internet you have to use the 99,000 won plan. I don't know about things like eSIM," provoking roars of laughter. As the battle continued between the 'spear' Kim Sook and Joo Woojae trying to make others understand the AI era and the 'shield' Hong Jin Kyung, Cho Sae-ho and Wooyoung, Wooyoung reportedly shouted, "Shouldn't we understand each other before facing AI?"
Meanwhile, curiosity soars about whether the analog humans of Screwballs can create a reversal in the epic showdown of brain games, as Kim Sook, Hong Jin Kyung, Cho Sae-ho, Joo Woojae and Wooyoung face an unpredictable match against AI.
Screwballs season 4: The Rival is released every Sunday at 5 p.m. on Netflix.
