TREASURE‘s Junkyu and Asahi, and IVE’s Lay will appear as country mates for ‘Countryside City Z’.

The 7th episode of ‘Countryside Z’, which will air on Sunday the 20th at 8:30 PM, will show TREASURE‘s Junkyu and Asahi, and IVE’s Lay visiting Bulgok-ri, Yangpyeong-gun, Gyeonggi-do and playing various games and experiencing the village.

In the broadcast that day, TREASURE‘s Junkyu and Asahi, and IVE’s Lay will appear as the fourth country mates for ‘Countryside Z’. First, Lay shows off his good-natured but not-so-good-faced fact-assaulting skills, causing bursts of laughter. After Lee Yi-kyung introduces himself in the ‘I‘m solo’ version, when Ray says, “Ask Lee Yi-kyung if you have any questions,”, he immediately replies, “No, nothing”, causing everyone to burst into laughter. Then, Song Gun-hee tells Ray, “It seems like you don’t have anything you‘re curious about me about,”, to which he replies, “Yes, nothing”, turning the crowd upside down. Furthermore, Ray rebukes Lee Yi-kyung for calling his name wrong, saying, “Please go home”, and when Yang Se-chan shows off a forced gag, he says, “Don’t be trying to be funny”, making everyone laugh with his perfect words.

Asahi presents laughter with his unprecedented paper doll form, being pushed back by ‘weak lower body’ Jung Dong-won. Asahi, who confessed that he was “weak” from the time he appeared, makes everyone burst into laughter by getting picked off by Jeong Dong-won and falling to the ground in a game where they have to take each other‘s spots to survive. Attention is focused on Asahi’s performance as a “character on the verge of starvation” who falls 10 meters with one push.

Jun-gyu goes to a goat farm with his team members and is so shocked by an unexpected situation that he “faints while standing up.” As soon as Jun-gyu, Lee Eun-ji, Song Geon-hee, and Asahi go out to herd the goats to clean the goat pen, the goats escape in a stampede and run up the mountain. As the production crew was put on emergency alert for a moment due to an unexpected accident, curiosity is rising about the outcome of the ‘Goat Escape Incident’.

The production crew said, “Jun-gyu, Asahi, and Ray will bring a different kind of laughter to the holiday evening with their unique wit and fresh characters”, and “Please show lots of interest in their activities as they liven up Countryside Z with their unrivaled MZ power”.‘‘City Z in the Countryside’ airs every Sunday at 8:30 PM.
