Comedian Heo Kyunghwan calls Yu Jae-seok aside to recommend an acquaintance and requests a "parachute appointment."
"Hangout With Yoo" Heo Kyunghwan and Kong Hyojin recommend talent suitable for a short-form drama.
The MBC variety show "Hangout With Yoo," which will air on Aug. 1 at 6:30 p.m. (directors Kim Jin-yong, Lee Joo-won, Kim Ki-ho, Ahn Ji-seon, Bang Seong-su, Park Eun-jin/writer No Min-sun), airs the "Jjikeoyou" episode, revealing the journey of Yu Jae-seok, Haha, Heo Kyunghwan and Joo Woo-jae as they prepare for short-form drama season 2.
Meanwhile, Heo Kyunghwan secretly calls director Yu Jae-seok and conducts a covert "parachute appointment." The superstar talent Heo recommends as staff is his student Kwak Beom, whom he noticed while teaching at a broadcasting academy. When Yu Jae-seok reacts in astonishment, asking, "Are you trying to plug him in?", Kwak Beom expresses his ambition, saying, "I want to come on my own merit."
Kwak Beom, who prepared a suit and résumé as if for a company interview, begins to showcase various talents. Having only seen Kwak Beom wearing a wig until now, Yu Jae-seok shows an unexpected reaction to Kwak Beom's real look without the wig. Anticipation grows over whether Kwak Beom will join the short-form drama team staff through Heo Kyunghwan's line.
Meanwhile, Kong Hyojin, who formed a competitive dynamic with Heo Kyunghwan for the female lead candidate, recommends another trending actor. Kong Hyojin says, "If this friend plays the male lead, I'll consider it too," turning on the green light for casting and intriguing director Yu Jae-seok. Attention is focused on the broadcast to see whether director Yu can succeed with a 1+1 casting.
Meanwhile, Heo Kyunghwan showed outstanding performance in last year's "gathering of unpopular people" special, receiving great love from viewers and steadily increasing his likability through continued appearances. After member Lee Yi-kyung left, a vacancy appeared, and he was finally confirmed as a fixed member in March this year, and they have been working together for five months.
