‘30 billion won building owner’ Yoo Jae-suk, Kim Jong-min wedding gift flex “It‘s expensive~” (whenever you get a chance)

SBS ‘Whenever you get a chance’ Yoo Jae-suk splurges on Kim Jong-min who is getting married soon.

SBS ‘Whenever you get a chance’ (directed by Choi Bo-pil/written by Chae Jin-ah), which aired on Tuesday the 14th, is a ‘niche strategy’ variety show that gifts good luck in the brief gaps in our daily lives. In Episode 19, along with Yoo Jae-suk, ‘Special Gap MC’ Kim Dae-myung, and ‘Gap Friend’ Kim Jong-min made an appearance, filling the gap time filled with happiness at the amusement park cast office, costume shop, and animal hospital.

On this day, Kim Dae-myung confessed that he went on a preliminary survey for the first time ‘whenever he had a chance’ to fill the empty spot of Yoo Yeon-seok, who was busy filming a drama. Kim Dae-myung said, “Here, Yeon-seok’s position is a human navigator, right? In order to fill the gap well, my junior friend and an older man came and played around wearing headbands. I know all the good restaurants”, raising expectations for the activities of the ‘Food Expert’ MCs. Meanwhile, Yoo Jae-suk, Kim Dae-myung, and Kim Jong-min all came from Suyu-ri, which was an unexpected surprise. Yoo Jae-suk said, “It‘s really amazing that Ssangmun, Suyu, and Dobong Middle Schools have come together. She foreshadowed the perfect chemistry of the ‘Three Suyuri Brothers’, saying, “This is real Suyuri.”

The first gap owner that Yoo Jae-suk, Kim Dae-myung, and Kim Jong-min found was met at the cast office in an amusement park. During the meeting with the cast gap owner, Yoo Jae-suk reminisced, “In the past, when things wouldn’t work out with Seok-jin hyung or I was frustrated, I often came here, and I really forgot my worries while I was here,“ building a rapport. The first mission was the ‘If you hang it on the nose, it‘s a nose ring, and if you hang it on the horn, it’s a horn ring’ game, where you succeed by throwing the ring and hanging it on an animal headband within 30 seconds. The trio smoothly succeeded in the first and second stages on their second and fourth attempts, thrilling the set.

When Kim Dae-myung exclaimed, ”Suyuri is doing great,“ Yoo Jae-suk praised him, saying, ”We came from Suyuri and entered the tough entertainment world and succeeded~ That‘s amazing.“ Riding this momentum, the ’Suyuri Trio‘ successfully completed the third stage with just 2 seconds left on their seventh attempt. Kim Dae-myung sighed in relief, saying, ”I’ve tried five times to get into college, but I think I worked ten times harder than when I was taking the entrance exams.“

The trio had a meal with relieved hearts. Kim Dae-myung impressed Yoo Jae-suk and Kim Jong-min with a kimchi stew restaurant that the cast knew about, which had been around for 20 years. After that, the ‘Suyuri Trio’ headed to none other than Panda World. The three of them had a gap healing time with the Fubao family along with the surprise appearance of zookeeper Kang Cheol-won.

At that time, when Kim Jong-min saw a panda doll and muttered to himself, ”I want to put that at home,“ Yoo Jae-suk shot the doll loudly and said, ”Jong-min, this is expensive. It‘s your wedding present~“ and started to ”push Jong-min.“ Kim Jong-min confessed, ”My brother bought me my cell phone too. That’s why I can‘t change it even if I want to,“ making the set burst into laughter.

The second gap owner could be met at the amusement park costume shop. The two gap owners, who have been running the amusement park costume shop for decades, confessed their reasons for working, saying, ”Working with young friends makes me feel younger. It’s such a great job. Sometimes I feel a sense of accomplishment when I receive hand-written letters or gifts,“ making the ”Three Musketeers of Soo-ryu“ choke. The second mission was a game called ‘Oh my~4 letter quiz’ where you have to hear the first two letters of a four-letter word and then repeat the remaining two letters to succeed. They passed the first stage on their first try, and Kim Dae-myung encouraged them by saying, “Suyuri is no joke~Suyuri power, Supa!”.

However, when Yoo Jae-suk kept getting wrong answers until the fifth try, Kim Jong-min reprimanded him, saying, “Hyung! I didn‘t see this coming”, making Yoo Jae-suk sweat profusely. In the end, the three of them used bonus coupons to wait for a chance, but unfortunately failed the second stage and ended the mission. Kim Jong-min, who made the final blow with ‘Dai Dong-myeong’, said, “I’m so sorry. When he fidgeted and said, ”Are you really this sorry?“, Yoo Jae-suk and Kim Dae-myung added advice, saying, ”Turn off the internet for a while and go abroad“ and ”I‘m not going to use the internet starting tomorrow,“ making everyone laugh.

Yoo Jae-suk, Kim Dae-myung, and Kim Jong-min headed to the animal hospital where the last owner of the gap was with regretful hearts. The three owners of the gap, who are veterinarians, complained, saying, ”Because a lot of variety shows happen, I’m happy but also live each day in tension,“ but made everyone laugh by confessing their friendly office worker side, saying, ”In my free time, I talk about my doctor and gossip.“

The third mission was a game called ‘Pang Pang! Balloon Cannon’, where they had to shoot ping-pong balls with a balloon cannon to make paper cup goals. Kim Dae-myung and Kim Jong-min said, ”We just need to get into the mood~“, ”This is awesome, we‘re done!“ and succeeded in the first stage on their first try. However, the three of them kept failing in the second stage. Kim Dae-myung concentrated on the game while holding his breath, but he unfortunately failed the second stage.

The owners of the gap said, ”It was a meaningful memory with the juniors who worked hard for a year.“ On this day, Yoo Jae-suk, Kim Dae-myung, and Kim Jong-min were all celebrities from Suyu-ri, so they stuck together and showed off the witty banter and tiki-taka of the ’Suyu-ri Three Brothers‘. In particular, Kim Dae-myung showed his loyalty by going on a preliminary inspection to fill Yoo Yeon-seok’s empty spot, and completed a gap time full of laughter with the three teams‘ gap owners.

Meanwhile, ‘Whenever You Have Time,’ airs on SBS every Tuesday at 10:20 p.m.
