‘What do you do when you play?’ Jinju Park and Miju left with laughter until the end.

The episode of MBC ‘What Do You Do When You Play?’ that aired on the 31st featured the ‘3-hour mission? Just a moment’ segment with the ‘Juju sisters’ Park Jin-joo and Mi-joo, who had to say a sad goodbye.The Juju sisters were shown hugging the members they had grown attached to and saying their final goodbyes to the viewers.

From the opening, Joo Woo-jae tried to lighten the mood by joking, “I can’t say anything to Jin-ju and Mi-ju today.” Mi-ju responded, “What! What’s wrong?” and Park Jin-ju responded, “We’re not even close to seeing each other,” and went wild.Yoo Jae-suk encouraged the Joo-ju sisters, saying, “Do whatever you want today.”

The mission that day was to visit three restaurants within a limited time of three hours.The golden rice grain food tour race began, and the members who arrived at the parking lot for their first meal were overcome with worry when they heard about the group rope jumping mission.They had to succeed in jumping 20 times, surpassing the 18 times they set in 2022 as the best group rope jumping record.Park Jin-joo recalled the memory of her failure to jump rope in the group, crying and saying, “I have a trauma.”

The members, who were determined to succeed, successfully completed 20 group jump ropes at once.In particular, Jinju Park caught everyone’s attention by recalling Haha’s past special lecture on gears and overcoming her trauma from group jump rope, and showing off her skills that had grown by leaps and bounds.The members hugged each other in joy, and Haha shouted, “Why are you doing so well today! You guys!” , making everyone burst into laughter.

The members then went to Itaewon to look for a second restaurant.They made guesses based on the hints in the photos of people eating food with their bare hands, and Joo Woo Jae found the Ethiopian restaurant in the photo with his feet.Lee Yi Kyung, who had been walking around in the blazing sun, took off his top because it was hot, and Yoo Jae Suk was disgusted by Lee Yi Kyung’s protruding “third eye,” saying, “It’s not cool,” making everyone laugh.It wasn’t easy to find the food in the photo on the menu written in the official Ethiopian language.In the meantime, Lee Yi Kyung had a stomachache and went in and out of the bathroom, and Joo Woo Jae was criticized by the members for munching on food.

Third, the members arrived at a cafe with a ‘taste of Sweden’.A sandwich cake, a reinterpretation of traditional Swedish food, was served.The unfamiliar visual of a pretty cake on the outside but a sandwich on the inside caught the eye.After Joo Woo-jae, a ‘man crazy about missions’, confirmed that there was not much time left for the mission, he recklessly ate the sandwich cake and eventually won the prize, golden rice grains.The members gave the golden rice grains to Park Jin-joo and Mi-joo, who had worked hard, and brought warmth.

Finally, Park Jin-joo and Mi-joo said goodbye.Mi-joo said, “Thank you so much for everything, it was fun.If there’s another chance, let’s meet again,” and made everyone laugh until the end with her shocking comeback promise, “I’ll come back after I have four kids.I have to start preparing now.” Park Jin-joo said, “I’m glad I could see you every week for over three years,” and made the members laugh with her consistent “pearl sound,” saying, “It’s not a permanent farewell.We’ll be under the same sky forever.”

At the end of the broadcast, a memorable scene unfolded along with a letter full of affection from the sisters Joo-joo.The youngest, Mi-joo, who has been with us for four years, said, “Thanks to my older sisters, I was able to learn and grow a lot while being with you for a long time.I will move forward on a new path, but I will remember the precious relationships we made here for a long time.” Jin-joo Park said, “Thank you for showing me that if I take a step forward with courage when I was always afraid of new challenges, there is a new world and fun things waiting for me.Thank you for cherishing and loving me all this time.Let’s support each other in the future.I love you so much.”

The next broadcast preview caught attention by showing the start of the four-member system.The four-member, four-color performance of Yoo Jae-suk, Haha, Joo Woo-jae, and Lee Yi-kyung, who became one, raised expectations.
