In the 6th episode of ENA's entertainment show 'Hyemi-ri-ye-chae-pa', which aired on the 16th, the story of Hye-ri (Lee Hye-ri), (G)I-DLE's Mi-yeon, Ri-jeong, Choi Y-na, Le Seraphim's Kim Chae-won, and Patricia, who are taking on the album jacket quest, continued from last week.
On this day's broadcast, the reversal of the relationship between Hyeri and Kim Chae-won brought laughter. Previously, Hyeri made everyone laugh by looking at Kim Chae-won's notice after failing to guess the jacket of Le Seraphim's 'ANTIFRAGILE' album. However, after Kim Chae-won was given the Girl's Day problem, their relationship took a turn. A dramatic situation was created in which Kim Chae-won, who had been continuously giving correct answers with a success rate of 100%, was unable to guess only Girl's Day's 'Look Forward'. Hyeri and Kim Chae-won created a heartwarming scene by performing a solo dance of apology to each other's songs.
Lee Jeong and Patricia, who were on the verge of breaking off their relationship over a game of mafia last week, have also entered reconciliation mode. The two performed a joint dance and then shared a reconciliation hug. When questions from the 2010s were asked one after another, Miyeon drew attention by saying, “Why are they all so old?” Accordingly, the eldest sister Hyeri, who debuted in 2010, evoked sympathy in a scene where she felt a subtle generation gap with the second child Miyeon. In particular, Hyeri looked at herself in the album jacket and was amazed, saying, "It was 10 years ago," and Kim Chae-won showed interest, saying, "You're younger than me?"
The physical battle between the members that started out of nowhere also added to the fun. Miyeon summoned Patricia, who had the same profile height as herself (161cm), and measured her height, and it was confirmed that Miyeon was slightly taller than Patricia. When Li Jeong, who is 160cm tall, realized that she was the shortest among the members, her tension dropped and she burst into laughter. The members decided to stand side by side in order of height. With 167cm Hyeri as the standard, Kim Chae-won, Choi Yena, Mi-yeon, Patricia, and Ri-jeong stood in that order, and the members took a proof photo saying, "They're all similar. Isn't that the acorn's height measurement?"
Afterwards, a power struggle ensued. A lower body death match began between the members, and in the first round active idol match between Choi Yena and Kim Chae-won, Choi Yena won. The match between Hyeri and Li Jeong in the second round ended with Hyeri's overwhelming victory. The highlight of the match was Patricia’s appearance. While the match between Patricia and challenger Hye-ri was successful and heightened immersion, the unexpected development of Hye-ri defeating Patricia with great strength was surprising. The younger members said in unison, “Hyeri is crazy,” and “She is a monster,” and Hyeri rose to the top of the physical hierarchy.
For the morning quest, members were given white gym clothes. The 'Joint Water-I-One Quest' is a mission where each person must hold a cup filled with water and throw it to the person next to them at the same time to move it to the water tank. The production team increased the difficulty level for each round, but the amount of cash returned was not small. In particular, Yena Choi said, “This is all science,” and suggested a way to slightly stretch the body, gaining support from the members. From the first round, the members showed unexpected success, and the production team looked rather embarrassed. This is because a situation was created that was completely different from the simulation.
The members continued their momentum with perfect teamwork, and even held a new product ceremony by provoking the production crew by asking, “What should we do?” The members decided to challenge until the last round to get the highest amount of cash ever. Although it was an opportunity for prosperity that was missed right before their eyes, the members experienced the thrill of successfully acquiring 8,000 cash by passing through the extremely difficult mission that day. However, the production team raised curiosity by revealing a spoiler of a twist, saying, "Currently, the amount of cash is minus 220,000."
It was ‘Hyemi-ri-Yechae-Pa’ where music and dance were essential until the very end. Choi Yena chose the karaoke mission as her personal quest, and formed the 'Yechaepa' unit with Kim Chae-won and Patricia and performed a successful debut stage. Hyeri and her sisters did not hide their fans' feelings for Patricia, who showed off her unrivaled presence at the center. Hyeri succeeded in her personal quest, but when the production team told her that she "succeeded without fun," she said, "Why does my heart feel like I've failed?" and confessed her dilemma as an entertainer, making everyone laugh.
After failing their personal quest, Rijeong and Kim Chaewon showed off their chemistry by teasing each other by saying, "Failure walks around." On this day, the members showed themselves getting closer by taking pictures of each other.
‘Hyemi-ri Yechae-pa’ airs every Sunday at 7:50 p.m.
