Jo Se-ho Returns to 'Doraiver' Amid Past Controversies

Jo Se-ho's recent activities have been revealed.

On the 24th, the YouTube channel 'Studio Two Plus' released a video titled 'Meeting Mina Soo | Doraiver Season 4 Ep.05'.

In the episode, the Doraiver team expressed surprise at the appearance of 'Single's Inferno' stars Choi Mina-soo, Song Seung-il, and Kim Go-eun, jokingly lamenting, "Are we meeting like this?" The Doraiver members dressed up in various hot-themed costumes, including H.O.T. and hot dogs.

Joo Woo-jae mentioned, "Jin-kyung, are you okay with Choi Mina-soo?" referring to their relationship. Kim Sook, who hadn't watched 'Single's Inferno 5', asked, "Why did you two fight?" Joo Woo-jae revealed, "There was some backtalk," and Jang Woo-young added, "Jin-kyung was a bit rude."

Previously, Hong Jin-kyung, as an MC on 'Single's Inferno 5', had commented on Choi Mina-soo, saying, "Please stop," and "It's painful to watch now." Hong Jin-kyung apologized to Choi Mina-soo, bowing her head. Jo Se-ho asked, "Is everything resolved now?" to which Choi Mina-soo replied, "We cleared things up during a gathering."

Meanwhile, Jo Se-ho received a warning from the production team for blocking Kim Go-eun's side shot. Startled by the remark, Jo Se-ho apologized, bowing his head.

As the members continued their conversation, Jo Se-ho was again instructed by the production team to "step back two steps," to which he cautiously responded, "I might fall off." Joo Woo-jae and Jang Woo-young humorously noted, "Once the cameras are off, we'll see Se-ho again in a month. He only films once a month."

Jo Se-ho had previously stepped down from shows like KBS2's '2 Days & 1 Night' and tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block' following allegations of involvement with organized crime and illegal gambling in late 2025. After a brief hiatus, he returned in early January 2026 to join the new season of Netflix's variety show 'Doraiver'.
