Lee Soo-geun Returns to 'Gag Concert' After Two Years, Delivers Laughter in the Defendant's Seat

Lee Soo-geun made a special appearance on KBS2's 'Gag Concert' on the 8th, marking his return to the show after nearly two years since April 2024.

In the 'Public Trial' segment, Lee stood in the defendant's seat, accused of neglecting 'Gag Concert.' Prosecutor Park Sung-ho humorously charged, "A star born from 'Gag Concert' left for a moment to '1 Night 2 Days' and now resides permanently at 'Knowing Bros.' I request a ban on appearing in other programs instead of high notes."

Defense attorney Park Young-jin countered, "Lee Soo-geun never abandoned 'Gag Concert.' He always thought of it." He then asked Lee to reenact his popular past segment 'If I Were Taller.' Lee, in tune with the nostalgic rhythm, exclaimed, "Head, shoulders, knees, and toes, 157." He joked, "It used to be 160, but after turning 50, I lost 3cm," drawing laughter. Lee also showcased his timeless comedic skills with Jung Bum-kyun in the 'High Notes Impossible' skit.

Judge Park Jun-hyung humorously ruled, "The crime of being good at comedy but not performing on 'Gag Concert' is severe. Appear in other segments," eliciting applause from the audience.

In the following 'Rather Good' segment, Kim Ki-yeol declared he would hijack a flight to Jeju Island and divert it to the Maldives. However, upon receiving intel that a National Intelligence Service agent was on board, Kim opened the restroom door, only to find Lee Soo-geun inside, pants partially down.

Lee, feigning irritation, said, "What are you doing so rudely? How can I board this plane in embarrassment?" He then humorously exited the plane, jumping out the door. He returned at the end of the segment, frozen and shivering, asking, "Please pull up my pants," causing an uproar of laughter.

In 'Simgok Police Station,' Han Soo-chan engaged the audience in a title-guessing game. When a woman raised her hand, Han was visibly shocked—it was his mother. She correctly guessed the answer, 'Today's Weather,' and revealed, "I heard my son practicing in his room yesterday," turning the audience into a sea of laughter.
