Motaebum defeated Julien Kang in thigh wrestling.
On the afternoon of the 11th, the tvN variety show 'Amazing Saturday' (hereinafter 'Amazing Saturday') featured Julien Kang, Jung Dae-se, and Motaebum.
During the broadcast, Boom ignited the atmosphere by asking, "If Kim Dong-hyun and Julien Kang fought, who would win? We've talked a lot when neither was present," to which Julien Kang replied, "It's an honor because he's a legendary athlete. But if it's MMA, I can't win, but if it's stand-up fighting, I have a chance," which excited the members. Kim Dong-hyun added, "During an internet live broadcast, he said that if he had three months to prepare, he could beat me. Of course, Julien Kang has a chance in stand-up fighting! But I think that chance is 0.01%," creating a heated atmosphere.
A flustered Julien Kang turned red and said, "But we don't know when that opportunity will come! But we also wrestled," to which Kim Dong-hyun responded, "Ahaha, I slipped." Boom encouraged them, saying, "I hear the fight money is similar for both of you, but we won't do it here. If tvN and Shin Dong-yeop sponsor it, you both will do it, right? Let's take a poster here," prompting laughter. When Kim Dong-hyun and Julien Kang leaned in to size each other up, Nucksal quipped, "They look like people fighting on Line 1," causing everyone to burst into laughter.
The first challenge was a kimchi dumpling hot pot, with the song "Four Seasons" by Turtle being played. Shin Dong-yeop confidently stated, "I've heard the original a lot from 'People Who Find Songs'." After hearing the song, Shin Dong-yeop said, "With skiers and sledders," Kim Dong-hyun added, "With sledders and people," and Nucksal chimed in, "With people who are anxious and sledders."
Park Na-rae added, "~ in this good season," and Taeyeon responded, "With skiers and sledders in a scenic place." Julien Kang revealed a weak answer, saying, "Could it be someone else?" and Motaebum said, "With people who ski and sled."
Finally, Moon Se-yoon revealed his answer, "In front, it's 'With skiers and sledders.' Shall we fill in the back together? 'In this wonderful winter, we can enjoy as much as we want,'" surprising everyone. Key remarked, "The New Year should have some flavor," and Shin Dong-yeop expressed his excitement, saying, "We're a bit lucky, aren't we?" and hinted at a match, saying, "Let's have a match today. Let's pool our fight money and give it a try."
Boom said, "This is a song that captures the charm of winter sports. It's just one word in English," revealing a hint that was almost useless. He continued, "We've prepared a New Year's gift this time. We will give you 'Da Deut Chan' episode 2! There's also 'Beok Deut Chan' from thigh wrestling," expressing a bittersweet sentiment.
As Moon Se-yoon headed to the answer zone, he said, "The writer who brought this song to the meeting room can't lift his head. He'll probably be suspended for six months," to which he replied, "I'm sorry... six months?" apologetically. As expected, Moon Se-yoon got the answer right in one go, but he was met with laughter when he was hit by corn kernels first.
A snack game was held with walnut cakes at stake, and Boom explained, "Due to Moon Se-yoon's lack of awareness, we added a special rule to the snack game. You can use your head or your body. If it gets too difficult during the game, shout 'Chance!' and we'll do a body game. The winner will get snacks immediately."
While answering questions, Motaebum shouted, "Chance!" and challenged Hanhae to an arm wrestling match. Showing confidence, Motaebum grabbed Hanhae's wrist, but contrary to expectations, Hanhae easily flipped his hand, surprising everyone. Hanhae shouted, "Don't say I've gained weight!" and Motaebum was left speechless. Immediately, Shin Dong-yeop called out, "Motaebum, come out!" and requested an arm wrestling match, where Motaebum again grabbed Shin Dong-yeop's wrist. However, Shin Dong-yeop exclaimed, "Noooo!" and easily flipped Motaebum's hand, while Jung Dae-se teased, "Taebum, you're too weak!"
Encouraged by this, Park Na-rae shouted, "Me! Me!" and Motaebum said, "I'll do it with two fingers," trying to maintain his pride. However, two fingers were far from enough, and Park Na-rae dove in, flipping Motaebum's wrist, causing everyone to burst into laughter. Motaebum commented, "It's hot... I'm sweating. Na-rae is incredibly strong," trying to explain himself. Boom added, "When he was arm wrestling with Na-rae, he was like 'Wow, wow,'" further embarrassing him.
The snack game resumed, and Julien Kang shouted, "Chance! Hyung, come out!" challenging Kim Dong-hyun to a palm-pushing game. Dong-hyun replied, "I've never lost at palm pushing. If I lose, I won't step on my feet and will fall all the way! There's no need to take off my hat when facing Julien Kang," showing confidence, while Julien Kang retorted, "The same result will come out as when we wrestled."
In the second round, they played "Chok-i Wa" by Super Junior-D&E for the Hanwoo short ribs. Jung Dae-se said, "Find it, crazy," Motaebum said, "Let's go with a little bit. Crazy," and Hanhae added, "Isn't it amazing? Hat trick." P.O. said, "Happy dream," and Key suggested, "Haetdeulpil," offering a different opinion on the English part. Julien Kang wrote, "Crazy. It's Happy Tree," only writing the English lyrics, which made everyone laugh, and Key emerged as the main character of the one-shot.
After writing 'Da Deut Chan', the members decided to use 'Beok Deut Chan' to play a song for the person who won the thigh wrestling, and a rematch between Kim Dong-hyun and Julien Kang took place. The first round ended with Julien Kang's victory, and Dong-hyun said, "The opposite is unknown," trying to stay strong, but he lost again in the second round, adding to his embarrassment.
Jung Dae-se encouraged, "Taebum, give it a try," and the thigh wrestling between Motaebum and Julien Kang took place. Taking a deep breath, Motaebum shouted, "Uaaaaah!" and exerted his strength, surprising everyone by spreading Julien Kang's thighs.
Afterward, using Motaebum's 'Beok Deut Chan', Julien Kang stood in the answer zone and announced, "Isn't it amazing? Crazy. If I say I kicked a few times, if I put in a little strength, it's game set," correctly answering, and the members shared the Hanwoo short ribs.
'Amazing Saturday' airs every Saturday at 7:40 PM.
