Actor Yoo Ji-tae delivered an unprecedented 'palace rebellion' performance against senior actor Kim Eui-sung that provoked uproarious laughter.
On the 20th, the mockumentary variety show "The Castle of Acting," released on the YouTube channel VIVO TV - Vivo TV, featured Yoo Ji-tae as a guest, where he engaged in a tense psychological battle that blurred fiction and reality with Kim Eui-sung and Im Hyeong-jun.
In that episode, Yoo Ji-tae seized the initiative the moment he appeared with an overwhelming physique. He said he is strictly managing his weight for his next project, and his consistently serious attitude kept Im Hyeong-jun and Kim Eui-sung on edge. The showdown of pride with Kim Eui-sung, who had played the same historical figure Han Myeong-hoe, was especially striking. When asked whether he had seen Kim Eui-sung's performance in the film Gwan-sang, Yoo Ji-tae provocatively replied, "To be honest, I didn't watch it at the time. If I had watched it and acted based on it, my Han Myeong-hoe wouldn't exist now," freezing the set with his cheeky provocation and delivering the pinnacle of "method acting."
The crux of the laughter that day was the disappearance of Yoo Ji-tae's reserved snack, "Dubai jjondeuk cookie." During a break in filming, Kim Eui-sung and Im Hyeong-jun, unable to bear their hunger, secretly ate Yoo Ji-tae's snack. When Yoo Ji-tae asked about the snack's whereabouts, the two responded, "Wasn't it the manager's mistake?" feigning innocence. Their awkward answers, with lips tightly sealed to avoid revealing traces in their mouths, brought laughter.
Noticing this, Yoo Ji-tae created a chill by saying, "Why blame the manager? Are you insulting my family right now?" leaving the two embarrassed.
Especially toward Kim Eui-sung, who kept his mouth tightly shut to conceal the crime, Yoo Ji-tae exploded in anger, saying, "Why did you do that," and ultimately forced Kim Eui-sung's mouth open to find remnants of the snack he had not swallowed. With a devastated expression, Yoo Ji-tae left a memorable rebuke, "Don't live like that," stormed out, and had viewers in stitches.
Immediately after the broadcast, online communities and comment sections were ablaze. Viewers praised, "I can't believe Yoo Ji-tae can pull off acting like that, his instincts are alive," "I thought my stomach would split when Kim Eui-sung opened his mouth," "To use the mockumentary format this well, getting Yoo Ji-tae was a divine move," "Yoo Ji-tae casting is ga-dal-sal" and others.
