A special episode of ‘Imagination Becomes Reality’ will be aired on tvN‘s ‘You Quiz on the Block’.

The 284th episode of ‘You Quiz on the Block’ (abbreviated as ‘You Quiz’), which will air on the 12th, will feature 2025 Harbin Winter Asian Games gold medalist Kim Chae-yeon, ‘Severe Trauma Center’ original author Lee Nak-jun, and actor Joo Ji-hoon.

According to the production team, clean goddess Kim Chae-yeon, who won gold medals at the Harbin Winter Asian Games and the Four Continents Championships, will be visiting ‘You Quiz’. The next-generation figure skating queen Kim Chae-yeon’s painstaking efforts and passion from the time she first started skating at the age of 10 to reaching the top will be revealed. The behind-the-scenes story of the Asian Winter Games, where she won the gold medal despite a cramp in her leg, as well as the golden advice that Yuna Kim gave before the competition, arouses curiosity. Along with the story of how her mother opposed her daughter‘s costume and choreography costs running into tens of millions of won, the drama also reveals the reason why she began making her daughter’s costumes herself when she was 12. You can watch the mother‘s devotion, which led to her being nominated for the ‘ISU Best Costume Award’, and Kim Chae-yeon’s special gala show that will only be revealed on ‘You Quiz’.


The story of Lee Nak-jun, the original author of ‘Severe Trauma Center’ (web novel writer) and an otolaryngologist, is also of interest. Writer Lee Nak-joon is expected to make the set burst into laughter with his thoughts on becoming number one in the world with ‘Severe Trauma Center’, as well as his fantasy story of dreaming of a huge hit, from an invitation to the White House to the entertainment show ‘Nak-joon‘s.’ In addition, the story of how he wanted to be a surgeon but gave up after his internship, and the behind-the-scenes story of ‘Severe Trauma Center’, which originated from a rare incident he personally experienced, will capture attention. Writer Lee Nak-joon, who says, “I can’t think of any other Baek Kang-hyuk besides Joo Ji-hoon”, generously reveals behind-the-scenes stories that weren‘t in the drama along with popular characters such as Baek Kang-hyuk and the anus.


You can also hear Joo Ji-hoon’s talk about his work in ‘Severe Trauma Center’. From the moment he appears, Joo Ji-hoon makes Yoo Jae-suk and Jo Se-ho burst out laughing with his tone that immediately summons Professor Baek Kang-hyuk. Joo Ji-hoon, who returned to ‘You Quiz’ after 5 years, will reveal the secrets of his acting that engulfed Baek Kang-hyeok, as well as the behind-the-scenes story of how he turned a web novel into an action-packed drama while holding idea meetings with his juniors for 12 hours a day. In particular, Joo Ji-hoon‘s unknown hardships he experienced while working with his juniors and the episode of the pouring company dinners are sure to make you laugh.


Joo Ji-hoon, who has now been in the acting industry for 20 years, is expected to convey deep impressions with his unique attitude toward his works, saying, “Is there any law that says you can’t be number one in the world?” Joo Ji-hoon‘s filmography, which has been a huge hit in every webtoon-based work from ‘Palace’, ‘Kingdom’, and ‘Along with the Gods’, will also be showcased, along with a special stage where he will sing the ‘Palace’ OST. We will meet Joo Ji-hoon, who is back with a witty talk, including a ‘counterattack’ toward his close friend Kim Nam-gil, who said he talks too much, and a talk with friends, fans, and family, on this day’s broadcast.

The broadcast will be at 8:45 PM on the 12th.
