On Sunday, the 26th, at 6:05 PM, MBC's variety show 'Manito Club' will broadcast its 12th episode, featuring the last adventure of Cha Tae-hyun, Park Bo-young, Lee Sun-bin, Hwang Kwang-hee, Kang Hoon, Lee Soo-ji, and Chef Yoon Nam-no, as they come together to support the KBO's first citizen club, the Ulsan Whales.
This episode will unveil a support event prepared after a 2-night, 3-day retreat. The members become the Ulsan Whales' number one fans, organizing various events such as a billboard event with citizens' cheers, an ad balloon banner, a cheer song, and choreography.
They also showcase exceptional teamwork by creating custom group t-shirts tailored to each player. The preparation process, enhanced with role-playing, promises laughter, especially with Park Bo-young and Chef Yoon Nam-no displaying their chemistry as peers born in 1990.
Park Bo-young, along with Lee Sun-bin, Hwang Kwang-hee, Kang Hoon, and Chef Yoon Nam-no, were moved to tears, and even Cha Tae-hyun, known for his calm demeanor, was reportedly touched. The players' reactions to the members' event will be a key point of interest.
Directed by Kim Tae-ho, 'Manito Club' garnered attention before its premiere due to the participation of popular stars like Jennie, Go Yoon-jung, and Park Bo-young. Despite this, since its first broadcast on February 1st, the show struggled with ratings, peaking at 2.3% by episode 11, and hitting a low of 1.0% in the latest episode aired on the 12th. The final episode was initially scheduled for April 19th but was postponed to the 26th due to the airing of 'MBC Sports Legend Returns OGFC: Suwon Samsung Legend'.
The final journey with Cha Tae-hyun, Park Bo-young, Lee Sun-bin, Hwang Kwang-hee, Kang Hoon, Lee Soo-ji, and Chef Yoon Nam-no will be revealed in the last episode of 'Manito Club' airing on Sunday, the 26th, at 6:05 PM.
