Comedian Kim Sook complained about side effects of quitting smoking.

On the 15th, a video titled "※legendary story born※ Kim Sook 'You went to visit the patient and mixed them up..' the greatest foolery bragging contest everyone had at least one of" was uploaded to the Vibotv channel.

That day Kim Sook and Song Eun I read a letter saying the writer had gained 10kg three months after quitting smoking and was worried. In response, Kim Sook said, "'If that's the case, then you might as well smoke?' Ack. Stay away from this person. I've heard this kind of thing a lot," she said.

The person, who said they had actually gained weight rapidly after quitting smoking, confessed, "I gained exactly 8kg in one month. For the first time I had bruises on the inside of my elbow. When weight suddenly increases, if you wear a suit and fold it, this area becomes thicker and people who have gained weight know. If you wear a suit all day, later you'll see spiral bruising. Because the suit is tight, this area becomes reddish like a stripe from the clothes. It bruises as if small veins burst."

Song Eun I recalled, "I would open a bag of chocolate and eat it all in one sitting," and Kim Sook said, "At that time many friends were at my house. At night I would have this strange thought, 'I haven't finished it yet?' So my mouth became bored. Then I started eating chocolate, and once my close younger sibling woke up running out of the room. While sleeping, there was a 'ddak ddak ddadak' sound so it was very scary. It sounded like heels or like someone knocking on the door, so they were too scared to come out into the living room. I was breaking chocolate. If you press it on the floor and do this it breaks well. So my older sisters were all startled sometimes. 'What is that sound?' When they opened the door I had just bitten the chocolate. That sound is very loud at night," she recounted, bringing laughter.

In response, Song Eun I said, "When I was smoking a lot, the ashtray was piled high with cigarette ash, but after I quit there were bags of candy," and Kim Sook said, "The candy with one almond on top is really tasty. They are individually wrapped, so you tear them open like a cigarette pack and put one in your mouth; you turn the candy like this but after turning it a few times the almond falls out. I would chew that. I liked chewing. Crack. In the past I relieved withdrawal symptoms with that. Candy, chocolate. So I gained about 8kg in a month. I originally weighed about 49–50kg, but after quitting my appetite increased. So if this person gained 10kg in three months, they managed it very well. Truly the number one in strict self-management," she marveled.

She warned, "You only gained 3kg in a month. We fluctuate 3kg even in a day. This person manages themselves better than expected. But 'did your appetite explode instead of the cigarettes?' It's not over yet. They're doing well now. I think there's no reason to counsel them. And if they smoked two packs a day, their body would have been really unhealthy. It takes time for the taste to return. Because of cigarettes you don't taste things properly. But if it's been three months since quitting, taste is returning now. They'll gain more going forward."

Song Eun I said, "I think you should prevent it in advance even now, and back then many people really held Sook's hand a lot," and Kim Sook confessed, "From then on many people held my wrist. I don't know what this is but there is emptiness. Things aren't organized, it feels unfinished."

Afterwards the two connected by phone with Shingiru, who actually lives life alternating between quitting and smoking. While discussing quitting smoking, Kim Sook said, "I'm thinking of holding a quit-smoking school soon," which drew attention. Song Eun I said, "Gather all the entertainers and say, 'I called you because I don't think you can quit unless you do it like this,' or something like that," and Shingiru responded, "That's great. Because it's not possible by willpower alone. The purpose is so good; it's also work for me because I can't do it by will alone my whole life. Unlike how I seem, I have responsibility for work and I hate deceiving the public, so I wouldn't actually do it falsely. The production team won't make it fake either," giving a positive answer.

However, Shingiru asked, "Isn't it just that you shouldn't smoke and you can eat anything else without concern?" and Kim Sook confidently replied, "The program is well designed. That program exists." She explained, "It's not just time to keep eating; there is a treatment process for quitting smoking." Shingiru suspected, "Doesn't it involve exercise and things like that?" and Kim Sook insisted, "You shouldn't make it difficult. If it's hard, it makes you crave cigarettes more. If someone who thinks people must not smoke runs it, they'll get stressed and smoke. But I used to smoke three packs a day. I know exactly when people feel the urge to smoke. People like that should design the program."

Hearing this, Shingiru said, "My appearance fee may not be much, but I want to do this program even if I have to give it up," and Kim Sook and Song Eun I brightened, saying, "Should we push this forward?" and their expectations grew.
