Go Youn-jung Joins MBC's 'Manito Club' for Exciting Undercover Missions

Actress Go Youn-jung is set to appear on MBC's variety show 'Manito Club'. Previously, Go gained significant attention for her role in Netflix's 'Is This Love, Can It Be Interpreted?'.

In the fourth episode of 'Manito Club', the second season cast members, including Jung Hae-in, Go Youn-jung, Park Myung-soo, Hong Jin-kyung, and Kim Do-hoon, will embark on their undercover activities, promising new entertainment.

The new cast members receive a welcome kit from the Manito Club headquarters and are invited as new members, marking the start of their activities. Go Youn-jung, a newcomer to variety shows, shows genuine curiosity as she checks her undercover phone, while Park Myung-soo humorously questions, "What is a Manito? Why do I have to prepare a gift?" The unique personalities of the five members are expected to bring laughter from the start.

Jung Hae-in, Go Youn-jung, Park Myung-soo, Hong Jin-kyung, and Kim Do-hoon are each given code names—Frog, Koala, Polar Bear, Lion, and Pig, respectively—and participate in an anonymous live draw. The random gacha system determines their personal Manito, and members watch the process unfold in real-time, filled with excitement and tension. Reports suggest an unprecedented incident occurs during the draw, adding to the chaos.

The personal Manito is determined by the next number in sequence, starting with Koala (Go Youn-jung) as number 1, followed by Polar Bear (Park Myung-soo), Pig (Kim Do-hoon), Lion (Hong Jin-kyung), and Frog (Jung Hae-in). The reactions of the members upon discovering their Manito are a key highlight. Go Youn-jung, upon realizing Park Myung-soo is her Manito, expresses excitement, saying, "I wanted 'Hwal Myung-soo' to be my Manito." Meanwhile, Jung Hae-in is surprised to find out his Manito is Go Youn-jung.

This season introduces the theme of 'handmade' gifts, adding another layer of fun. The mission is to deliver a gift crafted with personal touch and effort to their Manito. Viewers are eager to see what gifts the members will prepare and whether they can successfully deliver them without revealing their identities.

The fourth episode of 'Manito Club' airs on the 22nd at 6:05 PM.
