Ju Woo-jae's Unexpected Chivalry Shocks 'The Driver' Cast

Ju Woo-jae surprises everyone with his unexpected display of chivalry.

Netflix's variety show 'The Driver' captures the ups and downs of life assembled by the top 99% of talents without a screw. It airs every Sunday at 5 PM. The show features a strong and diverse chemistry between the sibling line of Jin-kyung, Sook, Se-ho, Woo-jae, and Woo-young, offering a variety of slightly goofy characters. Each episode delivers a feast of laughter with games, makeup, penalties, travel, mukbang, and talks, sometimes even touching moments, building a solid fan base. Following Season 1 'The Driver: In Search of the Lost Screw', Season 2 'In Search of the Lost Handle', and Season 3 'The Driver Dismantling Show', 'The Driver Season 4: The Rival' is also receiving immense love.

In today's (29th) episode 6, 'The Driver' members Kim Sook, Hong Jin-kyung, Jo Se-ho, Ju Woo-jae, and Woo-young face off against 'Single's Inferno 5' guests Choi Min-a-su, Kim Go-eun, Song Seung-il, and special guest Kim Ji-yu in a final 3:3:3 team battle. Ju Woo-jae's overprotectiveness towards the 'Single's Inferno 5' guests draws the ire of his fellow members.

Previously, Ju Woo-jae was known as an indiscriminate attacker, sparing no one among the 'The Driver' members. However, when faced with 'Single's Inferno 5' Kim Go-eun, he surprises everyone by displaying chivalry he had kept hidden from the 'The Driver' members. In a game where the loser must splash water on the opposing team, Ju Woo-jae pretends not to understand the rules, forfeiting his attack rights with a nonchalant expression, leaving the members in shock. Even when he hesitates and turns his back on the water cup, Woo-young is left speechless, saying, "Wow, I've never seen Woo-jae hyung like this."

The one who rebels against Ju Woo-jae is none other than Hong Jin-kyung. Having been defenseless against Ju Woo-jae's attacks, Hong Jin-kyung bursts out in laughter, asking, "Hey, don't you understand the game rules?" Eventually, unable to hold back, Hong Jin-kyung boldly declares her substitution.

However, there's keen interest in whether Hong Jin-kyung, who has hippocampal damage, has properly understood the game rules. Despite her confident demeanor, she completely disrupts the game with her play, declaring, "I'll admit it this time," and suddenly self-substituting, turning the scene into a sea of laughter.

Curiosity is at an all-time high about Ju Woo-jae's 'method acting as a game novice' that shocked the 'The Driver' members.

'The Driver' is available every Sunday at 5 PM on Netflix.
