Kim Jun-ho has become the first 'Most Blamed' of Season 4, surpassing a cumulative blame count of 100.
On the episode of 'My Money, My Blame Tour 4' aired on the 14th, Kim Dae-hee, Kim Jun-ho, Jang Dong-min, Yoo Se-yoon, and Hong In-gyu traveled to Taiwan's 'Lüdao Island,' a paradise of natural beauty, where they experienced snorkeling and one of the world's top three underwater hot springs. The episode also featured the 'Most Blamed' penalty of eating 'Stinky Tofu Ramen.' Kim Jun-ho narrowly became the 'Most Blamed' over Hong In-gyu and showcased his 'blame spirit' by eating the 'Stinky Tofu Ramen' prepared by 'Chef Jang' Jang Dong-min, saying, "If you get caught, you must do it!"
Previously, the 'Blame Crew' enjoyed the Hualien Night Market and headed to the 'Director Concept' accommodation booked by Hong In-gyu for the second day. The interior resembled a real prison, and Hong In-gyu handed out prison uniforms. They decided to play the 'Yongmani Eating Rice Cake' game, which matched their outfits, to determine who would pay for the accommodation and sleeping arrangements. After two hours of deceitful gameplay, they resorted to a 'roulette spin.' As a result, Kim Jun-ho came in last, achieving '100 Blames.' He accepted his '100 Blames' with a serene demeanor and slept alone on the sofa.
The next morning, Yoo Se-yoon announced, "Today, we have a custom full course prepared for Jun-ho, who is getting married in July," and they set off for 'Taitung,' located at the eastern tip of Taiwan. The 'Blame Crew' visited a local restaurant famous for its indigenous-style bone stew. Here, Hong In-gyu presented a cake to celebrate Kim Jun-ho's '100 Blames' and revealed video messages from his fiancée Kim Ji-min and his mother. In the video, Kim Ji-min humorously remarked, "We have a lot of expenses preparing for our wedding, but seeing you spend freely on 'Blame Tour' is charming. You've reached 100 Blames for the sake of airtime, but it's important for 'Blame Tour' to last long, so let's aim for 200, 300 Blames!" Kim Jun-ho's mother also congratulated her son's achievements, prompting Kim Jun-ho to vow, "I'll become a new person in honor of my 100 Blames."
In a cheerful atmosphere, the Taiwanese bone stew was served. Hong In-gyu joyfully commented, "Eating it with the bone makes us feel like cavemen." The 'Blame Crew,' in high spirits, devoured flying fish roe chicken rice, beef grilled over straw, and shrimp scallop stew. They then played the 'When in Taiwan' game to determine who would pay for the meal, with Kim Dae-hee coming in last. After the meal, they traveled 10 minutes by car to 'Fugang Harbor' and took a ferry to 'Lüdao Island.' Known as a snorkeling and skin diving haven, the 'Blame Crew' took a private van reserved by Yoo Se-yoon to a snorkeling spot. They were thrilled by the clear waters and enjoyed snorkeling, with Jang Dong-min and Hong In-gyu expressing their desire to show their daughters, showcasing their 'daughter fool' side. After the refreshing water activities, they played a game of throwing stones at targets to determine who would pay for the snorkeling costs. In a close match with Kim Jun-ho, Hong In-gyu lost.
Riding the momentum, the 'Blame Crew' embarked on an underwater hot spring experience, one of the world's top three. As the sun set beautifully, they enjoyed a leisurely hot spring bath. In the final 'hot spring fee betting' blame game, they mixed boiled eggs with raw eggs, excluding those who picked boiled eggs from the blame. Feeling the pressure with '6 Blames,' Kim Jun-ho prayed, "All gods, please grant me good fortune..." but the final choice of the gods was Hong In-gyu. Thus, Kim Jun-ho became the first 'Most Blamed' of Season 4. Jang Dong-min immediately switched to 'Chef Jang' mode and said, "I'll cook it myself," preparing the 'Stinky Tofu Ramen.'
Kim Jun-ho was mesmerized by Jang Dong-min's diligent cooking and cautiously tasted the 'Stinky Tofu Ramen.' Surprisingly, Kim Jun-ho ate it heartily, and Jang Dong-min remarked, "As expected of the 'Human Durian,' you eat it better than expected," showing respect. Having completed the 'Most Blamed' penalty, Kim Jun-ho laughed it off, saying, "I think I've eaten all the strange foods in the world."
