Seo Chul-gu, “I entered a U.S. university on scholarship at the age of 16.”


Actress Eom Hyun-kyung and singer Minoy will appear as new leaders on tvN's entertainment show 'My Friend, My Friend'.

In episode 2 of 'My Friends Are Smarter Than Me', which airs today (6th), a more powerful leader and smarter friends appear and engage in a fierce battle of brains.

While the team led by Kim Dong-hyun won the inaugural championship in the first broadcast last week, on this day, along with the existing leaders Kim Dong-hyun and Jo Se-ho, Eom Hyun-kyung and Minoy will be the new leaders. They are scheduled to compete in a quiz game with brain friends who boast various profiles, such as an Oriental medicine doctor who was the runner-up in the survival entertainment show with the top 0.03% of CSAT scores, a star professional English instructor, and the top 3 brain survival program and AFC bantamweight champion.

The production team said that expectations were especially high for rapper Seo Chul-gu, who is on Uhm Hyun-kyung's team. Seo Chul-gu is a gifted student who not only entered an American university on a scholarship at the age of 16, but also skipped grades in elementary, middle, and high school to graduate early. Expectations are high to see what kind of performance Seo Chul-gu will perform in ‘Naechinnatok’.

From Jo Se-ho's team, who wore matching team t-shirts, to the Minoy team, which scouted creator Moon Sang-hoon, who was Kim Dong-hyun's friend last week, a fierce battle of nerves is underway, and on this day too, difficult questions that catch people off guard in the areas of creativity, numeracy, and reasoning are asked. The leaders and friends of each team presented solutions that stood out with unusual ideas, while also impressing MC Jeon Hyun-moo with their intense brain play and the power of collective intelligence.

The cast's sense of entertainment is also expected to attract attention. Kim Dong-hyun, who became a clue hunter, Eom Hyeon-kyung with his absurd charm, and Minoy, who repeatedly found headache medicine for problems that could not be easily solved, provide laughter. In addition, rappers Seo Chul-gu and Coogi, who released freestyle raps, and Yoo Byung-jae and Jo Se-ho, who made people laugh with their witty quatrains, can be seen on 'Naechin Na Tok', which airs at 10:10 pm on the same day.
