Broadcaster Hwang Je-seong playfully targeted Jeon Hyun-moo's answer-stealing.
On the morning of the 29th, an online production presentation for Channel A's entertainment program ‘Brain Academy’ was held. The event was attended by Jeon Hyun-moo, Ha Seok-jin, Lee Sang-yeob, Yoon So-hee, Hwang Je-seong, and the production team including Seo Hye-seung CP and Moon Young-seok PD.
‘Brain Academy’ is a knowledge-charging quiz show where Jeon Hyun-moo, Ha Seok-jin, Lee Sang-yeob, Yoon So-hee, Hwang Je-seong, and the team challenge themselves to answer high-quality quizzes set by the top scholars in South Korea to earn ‘knowledge medals’. Each week, a master representing a specific field will present high-level, step-by-step quizzes.
Hwang Je-seong said, “This is my first time challenging such a program. We have recorded about two episodes so far, and I will be taking on the role of the sexy brain going forward.” He added, “I found it intellectually stimulating when others were solving problems. There’s a sense of thrill and sexiness even when they cheer, even if they didn’t get it right themselves.”
In response, Jeon Hyun-moo jokingly asked, “What kind of X does that?” Hwang Je-seong replied, “I won’t say exactly who, but that person’s dress code is like ‘Yain Era’ Guma-jeok. It’s almost like a thief level. It’s like ‘Justin Timberlake’ from the past.”
He continued, “When I see that person, I think of Aespa’s ‘Savage’. They steal all the answers. It’s amazing. I was really surprised,” which drew laughter.
Ha Seok-jin also shared, “I was very excited to be on a program where I could think with Hyun-moo after a long time. But I thought, ‘This is the character he has in the first recording.’ I feel good that the other four are also getting angry.”
Jeon Hyun-moo said, “I feel sorry. We’ve recorded about twice. I’m taking on the role of ‘Savage’ in ‘Brain Academy’. I’m acting like I did it all myself.” He added, “Many people miss ‘Problematic Men’. This is easier than that. It’s not too brain-wracking. You can build knowledge and have fun.”
‘Brain Academy’ will premiere on the 29th at 10 PM.
