Actor Choi Daniel Claims IQ of 135 Amid Hilarious Antics on 'Handsome Guys'

Choi Daniel brings laughter with his unheard-of IQ theory, claiming to be 'intelligent' and estimating his IQ to be around 135. He humorously adds that his IQ fluctuates between 135 and 140.

Shin Seung-ho quickly picks up on Choi Daniel's quirky nature, jokingly questioning, "Who bets on IQ?" and causing laughter among the group. Undeterred, Choi Daniel provides more 'evidence,' stating, "If I have breakfast and feel good, it's 139; if I'm fasting and not in a good state, it's 135," further amusing everyone.

Kim Dong-hyun, who humorously claims to have an IQ of 140, adds to the comedy by subtly challenging Choi Daniel, repeatedly asking, "Have you ever taken an IQ test?" and asserting, "When I take an IQ test, it's around 140."

The hilarity continues when Choi Daniel, during a proverb quiz, mistakenly says, "A heart startled by a snake is reassured by a lid," prompting laughter and Kim Dong-hyun to declare, "You should retake the IQ test; it's definitely two digits," leaving everyone in stitches.

The 22nd episode of 'Handsome Guys' is set to air today at 8:40 PM.
