Joo Woo-jae, who left for JYP, admitted defeat to his agency YG.
In MBC's 'What Do You Do When You Play?' broadcast on the 2nd, 'Show! The final practice site of One Top (JS (Yoo Jae-seok), Haha, Old K (Kim Jong-min), Joo Woo-jae, Lee Yi-kyung, Young K), who are about to debut on the 'Music Core' stage, and Juju Secret (Park Jin-joo, Lee Mi-joo), who are about to make a comeback, has been revealed.
On this day, the broadcast recorded a 2049 viewership rating of 2.4%, a key indicator of channel competitiveness and topicality, and took the top spot in Saturday entertainment. The viewership rating for households in the metropolitan area was 4.2%. The best minute (based on Nielsen Korea's metropolitan area) is a scene of Top members recharging themselves by eating at the JYP cafeteria after practicing choreography, and the highest viewership rating rose to 6.2%.
The JS Entertainment members who gathered in one place had time to listen to the final sound source that had been recorded together. Among them, the news of Lee Yi-kyung taking Young K home became a hot topic among the members. Lee Yi-kyung went to support Young K's recording and ended up drinking together. Jinju Park asked Young K, who was suddenly sweating, “What did you two do?” JS made everyone laugh by asking, “Are you wearing stockings again?” There was also talk about Young K taking first place among non-drama actors in topicality. JS said, “JYP (Park Jin-young) should know this too. “My brother discovered Young K, but we are raising it,” he said with pride.
Next, the audio source of One Top's 'Say Yes' was released for the first time. During the practice recording, the members' singing, which had been teasing each other for their 'naeguan singing style', had improved noticeably. Haha was in charge of the parts collected like dust, so he called himself 'MC Dust' and made people laugh. Composer Ryan Jeon praised the growth of JS, Haha, Joo Woo-jae, and Lee Yi-kyung, saying, “You’ve been practicing a lot.” Here, Old K showed off his unique voice and showed off the aspect of someone with full-time experience. Main vocalist Young K added reassurance. There were cheers for 'Say Yes', which showed off the different personalities of each member.
The completed audio track of JuJu's Secret's 'Hold on TIME' was also released. The members could not hide their admiration for Park Jin-joo's high-note part, and JS also expressed his satisfaction. One Top members sent sincere reactions, saying, “I knew I was good at it, but I didn’t know it was to this extent,” and “If I sing it as the last song of the event, it will be an uproar.” Following the release of the song, Kinky, the choreography director of 'Wait a minute TIME' and former 'Street Man Fighter', appeared. The completeness of 'Wait a moment TIME' was enhanced with choreography filled with choreography, from the synchronized intro to the clock hand point movements using the lyrics.
After finishing morning choreography practice, the One Top members got into the car together. At this time, JS said, “We danced, but shouldn’t we have a meal? “I was thinking about it, and I also have a lot of pride, and there was JYP (Young K’s agency) nearby,” he said. So, the One Top members headed to the JYP cafeteria. The members reacted to the organic dining table like a hotel buffet, full of jealousy and envy, saying things like, “JYP seems to have laid out a little more to show off,” “I’m not worried, but are you okay, JYP?”, “We can have my father’s 80th birthday party here.” It made me laugh. In the end, after eating dessert, Joo Woo-jae acknowledged the defeat(?) of his agency YG, saying, “We will lose our company.”
Lastly, the members said ‘Show! With a week left before their appearance on Music Core, they gathered in the practice room for self-evaluation. The One Top members were nervous due to the pressure of filming a dance practice video, but they showed choreography that gave an idea of the amount of practice they had had so far. One Top members said, “You did the best job ever” and “Wow, it was crazy.” They encouraged each other by asking, “How is this possible?” and Jinju Park responded, “There’s a cool side to it,” making everyone laugh. The choreography of JuJu Secret's 'Wait a moment TIME' was also revealed. Seeing Juju Secret's appearance as a senior with a career that cannot be ignored, the One Top members applauded and shouted, "As expected, they are different" and "They are perfect."
At the end of the broadcast, the 'show' will feature the debut stage of 'Say Yes' and the comeback stage of Juju Secret's 'Wait a minute TIME'! An appearance on ‘Music Core’ was announced. JS will be on the music broadcast stage as the top performer for the first time in a long time since SSAK3, and JuJu Secret will also be a special MC.
