Yu Jae-suk expressed his lingering regret regarding the beloved variety show 'Infinite Challenge.'
The MBC variety show 'What do you do when you play?' broadcasted on the afternoon of the 5th, depicted members forming a 'stock clearing team' to sell Haha's 'Infinite Challenge' figurines.
To sell the figurine stock, they moved toward Yeouido, and Yu Jae-suk and Haha said, "We need to target the Infinite Challenge kids. We need to sell to those who are at the age to be affected by Infinite Challenge and share memories of it." They analyzed that those in their mid to late 30s are the Infinite Challenge kids.
Lee Yi-kyung confessed, "I was born in '88, and one of my wishes before going to the army was to have 'Infinite Challenge not end' until I was discharged. I loved it that much," while Joo Woo-jae certified himself as an Infinite Challenge kid by saying, "I watched all the previous episodes."
Yu Jae-suk laughed and said, "Those who like Infinite Challenge have watched all the episodes and rewatched them multiple times, but the actual members sometimes don't watch all the episodes."
'Infinite Challenge,' known as the bible of variety shows and the origin of real variety, caused a syndrome throughout its broadcast and received nationwide love, but ended unexpectedly in March 2018 after 13 years. Haha asked, "Hyung, you haven’t watched the last episode yet, right?" Yu Jae-suk responded, "I think I didn’t want to watch the last episode. As I've always said, there’s a feeling of regret over the sudden ending of the last episode."
Haha said, "It’s not that I wanted it to end that way." Yu Jae-suk replied, "Oh, that's right. It’s not that I want it to end magnificently, but I thought, 'This doesn’t feel like the last episode.' After all, it’s a closing episode, so it feels more like a wrap-up episode than just the last episode."
Joo Woo-jae asked, "It really lasted a long time, but what did you do right after it ended (on Infinite Challenge recording days) when Thursday was free?" Haha recalled, "I called the hyungs. Do you remember?" He continued, "When I said, 'What are you doing, Hyung?' Yu Jae-suk said, 'Hey, hey, hang up! Just lay down.' I replied, 'It's Thursday, it feels strange, Hyung,'" reminiscing about that time.
