Comedian Hwang Je-seong is gaining attention as a 'plot twist brain.'

The first episode of Channel A's 'Brain Academy,' which aired on the 29th, is a high-quality quiz show program where South Korea's top scholars pose questions, challenging participants to win a 'knowledge medal.'

As celebrities known as 'brains' from various fields such as machinery, biotechnology, science, language, and history participated, Hwang Je-seong also confidently joined as a 'plot twist brain,' drawing attention even before the broadcast. Hwang disclosed that he is a graduate of a 'scholarship class' where only those with excellent grades can enter and has served as the president of the student body, as well as achieving a top grade in the mathematics section of the College Scholastic Ability Test.

The newly launched 'Brain Academy' requires participants to use 'collective intelligence' to solve all quizzes rather than competing individually, with problems posed by masters from various fields. In particular, there is great interest in what 'knowledge' Hwang Je-seong, who made his first appearance on a knowledge entertainment program, will showcase. The first area that expanded his pupils was 'architecture.' It's a field intertwined with societal issues and shared interesting stories about the correlation between power and architecture throughout the ages.

Hwang Je-seong immersed himself in the fun and fascinating world of 'architecture,' utilizing all the knowledge he had seen and heard. He meticulously analyzed and understood the first question, 'Temple for All Gods,' as he intensely gazed at the satellite map, capturing attention with his performance as a 'plot twist brain.' Furthermore, he contributed to 'teamwork' by recalling even minor information he had seen in newspaper articles when tasked with ordering heights by location.

From the very first episode, Hwang Je-seong, who became captivated by the charm of 'Brain Academy,' expressed that he feels great joy when exclaiming 'correct answer,' raising expectations and interest in what kind of brainy charm he will convey to home viewers in the future.

Meanwhile, Channel A's 'Brain Academy,' where Hwang Je-seong's unique and vibrant skills can be glimpsed, airs every Thursday at 10 p.m.
