In ‘Whenever Possible,’ Yoo Jae-suk, Kim Dae-myung, and Kim Jong-min delivered a flawless comedic exchange as the 'Suyu Trio.'
On the broadcast of SBS's entertainment program ‘Whenever Possible’ on the 14th, Yoo Jae-suk, along with 'special guest MC' Kim Dae-myung and 'friend' Kim Jong-min, filled their time with joy at the amusement park cast office, costume room, and animal hospital.
On this day, Kim Dae-myung confessed that he went on a preliminary visit for the first time in ‘Whenever Possible’ to fill in for Yoo Yeon-seok, who was busy filming a drama. Kim Dae-myung said, “Yeon-seok's position here is like a human navigation system. To fill in the gaps well, two juniors and I came wearing headbands and played. I’ve found all the good restaurants,” showing his enthusiasm and raising expectations for the 'food expert' MC's performance.
Meanwhile, Yoo Jae-suk, Kim Dae-myung, and Kim Jong-min were surprisingly united by their shared background from Suyu-ri. Yoo Jae-suk remarked, “It’s really amazing that Ssangmun, Suyu, and Dobong Middle Schools came together. We are true Suyu residents,” hinting at the perfect chemistry of the 'Suyu Trio.'
The first gap owner that Yoo Jae-suk, Kim Dae-myung, and Kim Jong-min met was at the amusement park cast office. Reflecting on his past, Yoo Jae-suk shared, “I used to come here often with Seok-jin when things weren’t going well or when I was frustrated, and I really forgot my worries during the time spent here,” building a sense of camaraderie.
The first mission was a game called ‘If it hangs on the nose, it’s a nose ring; if it hangs on the horn, it’s a horn ring,’ where they had to throw rings and hang them on animal headbands within 30 seconds to succeed. The three smoothly completed the first and second stages on their second and fourth attempts, exciting the scene. When Kim Dae-myung exclaimed, “Suyu is doing great,” Yoo Jae-suk praised, “We came into the tough entertainment industry from Suyu, and we succeeded. That’s amazing.”
Riding the momentum, the 'Suyu Trio' achieved a thrilling success in the third stage with just 2 seconds to spare on their seventh attempt. Kim Dae-myung said, “I took the college entrance exam five times, but I think I worked ten times harder this time,” which made Yoo Jae-suk burst into laughter.
The three then enjoyed a meal with a sense of relief. Kim Dae-myung impressed Yoo Jae-suk and Kim Jong-min with a 20-year-old kimchi stew restaurant known among the cast. Afterward, the 'Suyu Trio' headed to Panda World.
The three had a healing time with the surprise appearance of zookeeper Kang Cheol-won and the Fu Bao family. At that moment, when Kim Jong-min saw a panda doll and said, “I want to keep this at home,” Yoo Jae-suk generously shot the doll and said, “Jong-min, this is expensive; it’s your wedding gift,” initiating a 'Jong-min promotion.' In response, Kim Jong-min confessed, “You also bought me my phone, so I can’t change it even if I want to,” making the scene burst into laughter.
The second gap owner was met at the amusement park costume room. The two gap owners, who have maintained the costume room for decades, shared, “Working with young friends makes me feel young too. It’s a great job. I feel fulfilled when I occasionally receive handwritten letters or gifts,” touching the hearts of the 'Suyu Trio.'
The second mission was a game called ‘Roar~4-Character Quiz,’ where they had to listen to the first two characters of a four-character word and say the remaining two characters to succeed. They succeeded in the first stage on their very first attempt, and Kim Dae-myung energized the atmosphere by saying, “Suyu is no joke~ Suyu power, Su-pa!” However, as Yoo Jae-suk continued to give wrong answers until the fifth attempt, Kim Jong-min scolded him, “Hyung! I didn’t expect this from you,” making Yoo Jae-suk sweat.
The three used bonus coupons to seize opportunities, but unfortunately ended the mission with a failure in the second stage. When Kim Jong-min, who delivered the final blow with 'Dai Dong-myeong,' said, “I’m so sorry. Is it normal to feel this sorry?” he fidgeted, prompting Yoo Jae-suk and Kim Dae-myung to humorously advise, “Cut off the internet for a while and go abroad,” and “I’m going to stop looking at the internet starting tomorrow,” bringing laughter.
With a sense of regret, Yoo Jae-suk, Kim Dae-myung, and Kim Jong-min headed to the animal hospital for the final gap owner. The three veterinarians shared, “As various variety shows come up, it’s good but we live in tension every day,” expressing their struggles, but also confessed, “During breaks, we talk about house calls and gossip,” showcasing their friendly workplace demeanor and eliciting laughter.
The third mission was a game called ‘Bang Bang! Balloon Cannon,’ where they shot ping pong balls to set up paper cup goals. Kim Dae-myung and Kim Jong-min said, “We just need to get into the mood,” and “This is amazing, we did it!” and successfully completed the first stage on their first attempt. However, the three repeatedly failed in the second stage, almost succeeding. Kim Dae-myung focused on the game, even holding his breath, but faced the disappointing result of failing the second stage. The gap owners expressed, “It was a meaningful memory with the juniors who worked hard for a year.”
On this day, Yoo Jae-suk, Kim Dae-myung, and Kim Jong-min tightly bonded over their common background as entertainers from Suyu-ri, showcasing the witty banter and tikitaka of the 'Suyu Trio.' In particular, Kim Dae-myung showed loyalty by going on a preliminary visit to fill in for Yoo Yeon-seok, completing a joyful time with the gap owners from the three teams.
Meanwhile, the variety show ‘Whenever Possible,’ where MCs Yoo Jae-suk and Yoo Yeon-seok gift luck during brief moments of downtime in daily life, airs every Tuesday at 10:20 PM.
