Lee Kyung Kyoo recalled, “In the past, when I was the 'main MC,' Hong Jin Kyung appeared as a guest, and I could tell right away that she had passion and talent. She was not just a model but a budding star in entertainment.” He added, “I told the PD directly, 'Hong Jin Kyung is unique. It would be good to keep using her,'” revealing that he recommended her. He said, “Hong Jin Kyung broke through and has come this far with Lee Young Ja. She is a genius in entertainment and has never once sought credit for it.”

Lee Kyung Kyoo continued, “I also pushed Kim Gura a lot, but I have never talked about it anywhere, same with Boom,” and added, “This is the first time I’m saying this. Kang Ho Dong? Even if I don’t show it, everyone knows,” causing Kim Jong Kook to show a moment of surprise, making everyone laugh.
Regarding Kim Jong Kook, he said, “I don’t know why you are here. I don’t just say this to anyone. Am I crazy?” while showcasing his characteristic bluntness. However, he added, “I have a soft spot for Hong Jin Kyung. Hong Jin Kyung, help out a bit, why are you just sitting there? Our teacher is feeling a bit off,” ensuring a warm conclusion.
