The teaser video also highlights the struggles of commentator and announcer Bae Sung-jae. Despite having given up on math in late 1995, he humorously claims, "When you reach your 40s, you develop intuition," suggesting he will tackle problems with experience. However, his confidence is short-lived as he quickly encounters difficulties, admitting, "I think my skills are below elementary level. Even if the production team decides to let me go..." leaving viewers curious about his challenging journey.
'Problematic Men Reboot: Math Edition' premieres on Monday, the 23rd, at 10:10 PM on tvN.
