Yoo Ji-tae on You Quiz, 'The Ten Million King' Success

The tvN entertainment program 'You Quiz on the Block' will air a special episode titled 'Box Office Kings.' This 336th episode will feature children who became a sensation with their school festival video, Simon Kim, who achieved global success with Korean barbecue, Yoon Taek and Lee Seung Yoon, who have hosted 'I Am a Natural Person' for 15 years, and Yoo Ji-tae, who became a 10-million-viewer actor after 28 years in the film 'The King and the Clown.'

The children, whose school festival video garnered a total of 28 million views, captivated MC Yoo Jae-suk with their unexpected answers and talent, heating up the set. Their performances of 'Golden' and 'Rollin'' along with a family dance parade are highly anticipated by viewers.

Simon Kim, who has received Michelin stars for eight consecutive years for his Korean barbecue, will reveal the secrets behind his success, achieving an annual revenue of 100 billion won in New York and ranking first among North American steak houses. He boasts a clientele of celebrities such as Obama, Beckham, Messi, and DiCaprio, and will share behind-the-scenes stories of his restaurant, where reservations sell out in just 15 seconds. He also plans to discuss his journey of discovering the potential of Korean food and forging his own path amidst identity confusion and racial discrimination after immigrating to New York at the age of 13.

Yoon Taek and Lee Seung Yoon, who have been hosting 'I Am a Natural Person' for 15 years, will meet with Yoo Jae-suk to share their realistic survival stories in the wild. They are expected to bring laughter by revealing the behind-the-scenes of their inability to appear on 'You Quiz' until now and their feelings about filming in the city after a long time. Lee Seung Yoon will disclose the first filming with a naked "natural person," the story behind "fish head curry," and the terrifying moment he was rushed to the emergency room after being stung by a giant hornet. Yoon Taek will also share his experience of facing hornet larvae as a meal on his first filming, which he described as being like a disaster movie. Stories about the "natural person's table," including raw goral liver and frog soybean paste stew, and Lee Seung Yoon's behind-the-scenes story of buying his parents a house with his rerun broadcast fees are also expected to add to the intrigue.

Yoo Ji-tae, who became a 10-million-viewer actor by playing the sole villain, Han Myeong-hoe, in the film 'The King and the Clown,' humbly stated, "Becoming a 10-million-viewer actor is thanks to 'You Quiz.'" He will reveal various behind-the-scenes stories of 'The King and the Clown,' which drew over 14 million viewers, ranking third in Korean film history for audience numbers and first for revenue. The creation process of Yoo Ji-tae's villainous character 'Han Myeong-hoe,' the effort behind his overwhelming presence, and his wife Kim Hyo-jin's reaction are scheduled to be revealed. He will also honestly share his struggles with health problems (hyperlipidemia, acute gastritis, colitis) due to weight gain. Additionally, a heartwarming story about director Jang Hang-jun and a surprise interview, behind-the-scenes of the confrontation scene with Grand Prince Danjong, and Yoo Ji-tae's impromptu acting will be showcased.
