The rest of the members were delayed by over an hour. Kim jokingly complained about waiting for guests despite not being a regular himself, boasting about the numerous guest appearances he has been offered. However, he soon expressed his desire for a permanent spot, to which Yoo advised that he needs to showcase his wit and effort.

Yoo Jae-suk humorously remarked on the challenge of doing the opening with Kim alone, calling it the biggest crisis since the show's inception. Kim, smiling, teased about taking over the show and jokingly apologized to Heo Kyung-hwan.

Heo admitted feeling anxious due to Kim's presence, expressing his concern about maintaining his position. Yoo later described Kim as a 'scene-stealer' to the other members, while Joo Woo-jae playfully teased Heo about forgetting his regular status.

When Choi Hong-man cautiously asked Heo about offers from other shows, Haha jokingly warned him about conflicting schedules. Heo firmly stated his commitment to 'Hangout with Yoo,' while Kim humorously encouraged him to explore other opportunities, causing laughter.
