Broadcaster Yoo Jae-suk displayed the qualities of a model taxpayer on "How Do You Play?".
The episode aired on the 31st and revealed the last broadcast before Park Jin-joo and Lee Mi-joo's departure from the MBC entertainment program "How Do You Play?" (abbreviated as "How Do You Play?").
The production team prepared a three-hour limit restaurant tour to treat Park Jin-joo and Lee Mi-joo. If they successfully completed a tour of three restaurants in three hours, the "Juju Sisters" would receive the "golden rice" that they had previously failed to acquire.
The solid gold "golden rice" prepared a year ago. The production team noted, "It would cost about 2 million won at the current market price," which surprised many. In response, Yoo Jae-suk advised, "You need to be careful when settling taxes."
Yoo Jae-suk confessed that despite receiving nothing at the end of the year, he faced a tax burden due to the value of gold he received as prizes at various award ceremonies. He has won a total of 20 entertainment awards.
In response, Joo Woo-jae joked, "Isn't the gold alone for you around 300 tons?" Yoo Jae-suk waved his hands and denied, "It's not that much," but admitted, "I pay a lot of taxes." Lee Yi-kyung remarked, "I heard that. I heard that you pay more taxes," praising Yoo Jae-suk's diligent tax payments as a model taxpayer.
Yoo Jae-suk is known to have purchased land with an area of approximately 298.5 square meters (90.3 pyeong) and a building with an area of 275.2 square meters (83.2 pyeong) in Nonhyeon-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, for 11.6 billion won and 8.2 billion won, respectively. He reportedly paid a total purchase amount of 19.8 billion won entirely in cash without loans.
As a result, he underwent a stringent tax investigation by the National Tax Service in June and July of last year, aimed at high-income earners. The investigation focused on his land and building purchases and was conducted unusually intensively. However, no allegations of tax reporting errors or omissions were found, which impressed many.
