TV CHOSUN's 'SeokSamPlay Season 1' debuted with a disappointing 0% viewership rating. Lee Mi-joo, who left 'Hangout with Yoo' last year, joined the show alongside Ji Suk-jin, sparking interest.
The first episode, aired on the 11th, featured the 'SeokSam Family'—Ji Suk-jin, Jeon So-min, Lee Sang-yeob, and Lee Mi-joo—exploring key spots in Gwangju, Gyeonggi Province, achieving a 0.6% rating.
Ji Suk-jin, Jeon So-min, and Lee Mi-joo showcased their sibling-like chemistry while waiting for the tardy Lee Sang-yeob. Ji Suk-jin complimented Jeon So-min's makeup, ignoring Lee Mi-joo's hopeful gaze, highlighting their unique dynamics. Jeon So-min comforted a disappointed Lee Mi-joo, saying, "Mi-joo, you're prettier," leading to a praise exchange that exasperated Ji Suk-jin. They teased him as "Ko-boong," setting the tone for the 'Suk-jin teasing' from the start.
At Namhansanseong, the 'SeokSam Family' quickly shifted to high energy. While discussing their family origins, Ji Suk-jin surprised everyone by revealing, "I'm from a Chinese surname," causing laughter. Jeon So-min entertained with a wild dance, and Lee Sang-yeob remarked, "Her eyes are spinning," while Lee Mi-joo added to the chaos with a water-spitting performance. Ji Suk-jin's dramatic "Is there no one here!" was met with jokes about his wife, adding humor.
At the Seomun Observatory, Jeon So-min's sharp wit shone as she commented on the audio director's adjustments, leading to Ji Suk-jin and Lee Sang-yeob's playful reactions.
During a chicken soup feast, Jeon So-min compared the broth to Lee Mi-joo's eyes, prompting Lee Mi-joo to retort with a compliment about Jeon So-min's skin. Jeon So-min then likened the broth's depth to Lee Sang-yeob's mind, while Lee Mi-joo delivered a final jab, comparing the chicken's size to Ji Suk-jin's nose.
At G-Stadium for a game, fans shouted compliments to Ji Suk-jin, which the members humorously dismissed. In the 'Destiny Dice Game,' they narrowly avoided mines, securing a 1.2 million won bonus, with Lee Sang-yeob's enthusiastic sprint across the field capping the event.
Jeon So-min's quirky talent added fun, as her attempt at harmonizing 'Ongdalsam' turned into a comedic dissonance, prompting Lee Mi-joo to suggest giving up, filling the car with laughter. At the glamping base camp, the 'SeokSam Family' met Choi Daniel. Matchmaker Jeon So-min facilitated a conversation between Lee Mi-joo and Choi Daniel, who expressed his delight at meeting her.
