Yoo Jae-suk and Yoo Yeon-seok welcomed the new entertainment sprouts, Son Suk-ku and Kim Da-mi, who appeared in a tense state from the start. Kim Da-mi, who said, "This is my first time in TV entertainment," noted, "There are really a lot of cameras. I was nervous, but I slept well" which drew laughs. Particularly, when Kim Da-mi continuously provided reactions, Yoo Yeon-seok commented, "Your reactions are great. You look more comfortable than Son Suk-ku," raising expectations for the 'reaction fairy.' Additionally, Son Suk-ku caught attention by revealing a nickname related to Dogok-dong. "I jog by Yangjaecheon every morning, so my nickname is 'Yangjaecheon raccoon,'" Son Suk-ku remarked, to which Yoo Jae-suk teased, "I can see the raccoon resemblance," and Son Suk-ku replied nonchalantly, "Actually, raccoons do live in Yangjaecheon," showcasing a delightful banter.

The first person they met was an employee from a fashion company in Dogok-dong. Son Suk-ku asked, "How do people endure drowsiness during lunch breaks? I was really curious," then unexpectedly posed a silly question before confessing, "I even fell asleep while filming because of drowsiness. I'm really sleepy," which caused bursts of laughter. This game, which started with 0 bonus coupons, was 'Fly Hanger.'

Whenever Son Suk-ku failed, he sought new strategies, asking, "Can’t I throw several at once?" When a practice throw of 'one hit' hit the target, he immediately got excited, saying, "I bet everything on this." After successfully completing the first stage with Son Suk-ku's '7 shots' on the fifth attempt, he exclaimed, "We should throw 7 each," and Yoo Jae-suk laughed, stating, "Completing the first stage is pushing Son Suk-ku to the edge." Riding high on this momentum, they achieved a thrilling victory by advancing to the second stage with Yoo Jae-suk's '4 one-hit.'

During the following lunch hour, the site was once again abuzz with the astonishing coincidence that Son Suk-ku's recommended favorite restaurant was the next host. Yoo Yeon-seok expressed excitement at this new twist, saying, "Today feels like a lucky day~" The ensuing exercise talk continued their playful banter. When Yoo Jae-suk shared, "When exercising with others, don’t you cheer for each other? I find that cheering a bit burdensome, so I exercise alone," revealing his lonely exercise enthusiast side, Son Suk-ku replied, "I started CrossFit recently, and at first, I felt embarrassed when people cheered me on, but now that I'm used to it, I really appreciate it," which drew laughter.

After lunch, the next location they moved to, with the least steps recorded, was a taco shop run by brothers. Son Suk-ku made the crowd laugh by revealing a twist in sibling dynamics when he said, "I have a younger brother, and I’m scared of him. Sometimes, it feels like he's the one who is putting up with me." The subsequent game, 'Bang! Bang! Can Baseball,' required hitting a ping-pong ball with a beer opener, which was a challenging game. Son Suk-ku declared, "Let me try to come up with a strategy," launching into a state of deep concentration, quickly grasping the game and heating up the atmosphere.

At that moment, Kim Da-mi showcased a 'divine move,' turning the scene into a frenzy of excitement. During their third attempt, while Yoo Yeon-seok was hitting the ping-pong ball, Kim Da-mi unexpectedly handed her ball to Yoo Yeon-seok, who then hit the can with her ball, leading to the success of the first stage. In response, Yoo Jae-suk and Son Suk-ku expressed their astonishment, saying, "Da-mi reads the situation well~" and "This is what we call a divine move!"

Subsequently, Son Suk-ku demonstrated a speedy technique, swiftly succeeding up to the second stage, prompting Yoo Jae-suk to exclaim, "Son Suk-ku, what on earth are you? After Seung-won hyung, something like this…" unable to hide his excitement. Ultimately, during the third stage, Son Suk-ku knocked over three cans in a single stroke, and the last can left on the table tumbled down, completing a dramatic finish. Yoo Jae-suk and Yoo Yeon-seok exclaimed, "This is Tiger Woods' 'The Shot'~ This is drama~" and Yoo Jae-suk added, "The ninth attempt, 'Nine Puzzles', isn't this destiny?" suggesting a sense of fate.

As a result, the four succeeded in the entire game due to Son Suk-ku's bold strategy and remarkable timing luck. Additionally, the new entertainment sprouts, Son Suk-ku and Kim Da-mi, made a powerful impression with their full-body engagement in play and vivid reactions, delivering delightful laughter.

Meanwhile, the variety show 'Whenever Possible,' hosted by 2MCs Yoo Jae-suk and Yoo Yeon-seok, which offers luck during brief gaps in everyday life, airs every Tuesday at 9 p.m. on SBS.
