Huh Kyung-hwan Faces Humbling Recognition Test in Rural Hongcheon on 'Hangout with Yoo'

Huh Kyung-hwan, filling in for the departed Lee Yi-kyung on 'Hangout with Yoo,' faces a humbling recognition test in the rural village of Hongcheon.

On the October 31st episode of MBC's variety show 'Hangout with Yoo,' Yoo Jae-suk, Haha, Huh Kyung-hwan, and Joo Woo-jae visit a remote village in Hongcheon, Gangwon Province, as part of their 'Delivery of Hangout' segment. The group delivers essential supplies and calcium chloride to residents living in areas unreachable by regular delivery services.

During the visit, Yoo Jae-suk and Haha conduct a recognition test by asking the villagers, "Do you know these guys?" A local star, Yeom Hee-han, mistakes the tall Joo Woo-jae for another celebrity, saying, "I've seen you a lot. You two are good," causing Joo Woo-jae to humorously protest, "I'm not that person."

The owner of a black goat farm recognizes Yoo Jae-suk and Haha but not Huh Kyung-hwan. Similarly, Kim Jung-tae, a local elder, admits it's his first time seeing Huh Kyung-hwan. In response, Yoo Jae-suk suggests that Huh's catchphrases might jog their memory, prompting Huh to unleash a barrage of his famous lines, hoping one will resonate and salvage his pride.

'Hangout with Yoo' airs at 6:30 PM.
