Nation’s MC Chats With Three Talkative Actors

Before his successful YouTube show, Yoo Jae Suk became famous thanks to his past TV shows. These include SBS’s X-Man, KBS’s Happy Together, MBC’s Infinite Challenge, and SBS’s Family Outing.

However, on the 100th episode of Just An Excuse, the guests overpowered the host with their nonstop chatter. Nam Gil shared he talked too much that his fan meeting went beyond five hours.

The episode also marked the first visit of both Nam Gil and Ji Hoon. Meanwhile, it was Kyung Ho’s third time. He even took home the Rookie of the Year Award in last year’s Annual Pinggyego Awards.

Speaking of the awards show, the veteran actor narrated what happened before the hilarious moment when Hwang Jung Min shushed Lee Kwang Soo. He further added that a screenshot of the viral video was printed and used on one of his filming sets.

Unlike the stoic characters he often portrayed, Ji Hoon roared in laughter all throughout the show. In between Nam Gil’s recurring tales and Kyung Ho’s long-winded stories, Jae Suk asked Ji Hoon what he’s most afraid of. To which he replied, “People repeating the same stories and people telling long stories that could be short.”
