Jeon Hyun-moo's Surprising Past as an Aspiring Journalist
In the upcoming 349th episode of 'Sadaengui', Jeon Hyun-moo's college days in the Yonsei University broadcasting club will be unveiled for the first time. Known for his success in media exams, Jeon's past as an aspiring journalist is intriguing. The video shows college student Jeon sitting at the anchor desk, introducing himself as "Jeon Hyun-moo from YBS Around News," before suddenly breaking into a dance, startling the female anchor beside him. The studio erupts in laughter as Jeon can't contain his amusement at his past self. Kim Sook quips, "Why didn't you audition for 'Gag Concert'?" expressing regret over a lost comedic talent. Jeon responds seriously, "I thought I was too handsome to be a comedian," triggering a wave of laughter in the studio. Kim Sook confidently asserts, "With that face, you'd definitely pass."

Was Jeon Hyun-moo's Appearance at 25 Older Than Now?
Jeon further surprises the studio by revealing that the video, showing him with graying facial hair and tired eyes, was taken "before joining the military." His past photos have often sparked discussions due to his ageless appearance. Kim Sook exclaims, "He looks older than he does now at 25," while Kim Tae-won jokes, "He's become human now," elevating Jeon from an iguana to a person, causing laughter.
