tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block' Celebrates 300th Episode with Open Casting Call

As it approaches its 300th episode, tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block' (commonly known as 'You Quiz') is launching an open casting call for participants. Known for its street talk show format that connects with everyday citizens, 'You Quiz' has faced criticism for increasingly featuring celebrities, turning it into a 'promotional broadcast.' The 300th episode presents an opportunity for the show to return to its roots.

Hosted by Yoo Jae-suk and Jo Se-ho, 'You Quiz' delves into the lives of its guests, offering genuine conversations. The show has been on air since 2018, marking seven years of broadcast.

With the milestone 300th episode on the horizon, the 'You Quiz' team is seeking participants to join the celebration. This initiative aims to discover hidden gems among the public, a move that aligns with the show's original spirit, according to the production team.

The producers expressed gratitude, stating, "The reason 'You Quiz' has been loved for 300 episodes is thanks to the support and affection from all our viewers across the nation." They added, "Whether it's someone who can make Yoo Jae-suk laugh with their wit or someone with a touching story that can move Jo Se-ho to tears, we encourage you to recommend anyone you believe should be featured on 'You Quiz.'"

From individuals with unique talents to fandom masters, world-class caregivers, everyday heroes, and those with miraculous stories, anyone who is a 'gem' can apply, including self-nominations.

Applications for the 300th episode participants are open until noon on the 20th. More details can be found on the official 'You Quiz' social media channels.
