EXO Kai, who joined ‘Convict: A Man Who Does A Convict Every Day’ (hereafter referred to as Convict) as the second convict, has caught attention by suddenly releasing a teaser video showing his extraordinary enthusiasm even before filming.
‘Convict’, the representative entertainment show of multi-platform content production company OTV (CEO Lee Hyun-sook), is content that reviews various departments by traveling to universities across the country, and released a teaser for season 6 on the 20th. In the video released that day, Kai revealed, “I just got discharged from military service yesterday”, and expressed his enthusiasm even before filming, saying, “Through ‘Convict’, I got to experience college life.”He expressed his extraordinary expectations by saying, “Because I trained for a long time before debuting, I have a romantic feeling about freshman life and club activities.” Meanwhile, Kai guessed that ‘과사(department office)’was “past photo” during a test on terms commonly used by college students, and when asked about the meaning of ‘동방’(club room),”””TVXQ?”, making everyone laugh with his odd answers.
Kai also had an impromptu phone call with Lee Changsub to learn some great tips about filming. ‘1st generation convict’ Lee Changsub mentioned the ‘convict’s signature ending of writing a three-line poem with the visiting department for every shoot, and impressed Kai by sharing extremely realistic know-how such as, “It‘s good to think of a three-line poem when you come to the filming set. Here, Kai and Lee Chang-sub showed off their extraordinary entertainment skills by engaging in an impromptu three-line poem writing competition using each other’s names, causing laughter.
Meanwhile, ‘Ex-Convicts’ has attracted attention by foreshadowing a more diverse review of university departments for Season 6. It has raised expectations for even more upgraded content, such as a special edition of ‘Ex-Convicts’ that will contain experiences as various members of the university, such as attending general education classes as well as major classes, the student council, ROTC, and teaching assistants, and even deliver more useful information. In addition, Kai will make a surprise cameo appearance in the short-form drama ‘Ex-Convict’ spin-off ‘Ex-Convict: Snack Movie’ on OOTV on the 21st (today) at 6 PM, so expectations are high for the method acting that Kai will show.
‘Ex-Convict’ season 6, in which EXO Kai appears as the second ex-convict, will premiere on the ootb STUDIO YouTube channel on the 27th (Thursday) at 6 PM, and will meet viewers every Thursday at 6 PM thereafter.
