Announcer Park Ji-hyun reprimanded announcer Heo Yoo-won.
On the afternoon of the 22nd, KBS2's entertainment program 'Sadangui' (short for 'The Boss's Ears are Donkey Ears') featured KBS announcers conducting a mock evaluation of the presidential election broadcast for 2025, continuing from the previous week.
During the broadcast, after watching announcer Jeong Eun-hye's mock election broadcast, Park Ji-hyun coldly remarked, "You could have practiced enough and recognized the risks to prevent accidents, so why didn't you do that and increase the risk of accidents?"
After watching Heo Yoo-won's broadcast, Park Eun-hye pointed out, "Yoo-won was the most anxious. And I was so angry to see him smile during a crisis," criticizing Yoo-won's inability to hold back laughter in unexpected situations. Park Ji-hyun scolded, "You really need to be careful about smiling during news or vote counting broadcasts. Viewers may feel differently. Smiling during a vote counting broadcast, where the outcome is being decided, is a matter of the host's qualifications. How can you smile?"
Eom Ji-in also raised awareness, saying, "The unexpected actions were all things we experienced. What you are in charge of is the presidential election broadcast." Park Ji-hyun added, "You are standing in front of viewers with the title of KBS announcer, are you ready to stand on the front lines? I feel very lacking. I need to stay up all night starting today," she said, sticking out her tongue.
Finally, on election day, the vote counting broadcast began. The announcers, who led the broadcast for a long 10 hours, displayed perfect hosting skills, making their worries seem unfounded.
The second boss to appear was Jeong Won-oh, the mayor of Seongdong-gu. Preparing for a large festival to celebrate Children's Day, Jeong Won-oh said, "They say it's going to rain in the afternoon? If it rains, kids might catch a cold, so let's move the date. Let's change the date from May 6th to the 4th. I hope we can add something new," notifying the staff in a "make it happen" manner.
On the day of the event, Jeong Won-oh headed to the venue. The team leader revealed, "I prepared a different outfit hoping it would match the children's perspective," unveiling a cosplay outfit. The Seongbuk-gu mayor even practiced idol dances while wearing the costume, making thorough preparations.
However, due to unexpected strong winds, the event could not proceed, and the tent was ultimately taken down. Jeong Won-oh quickly proposed, "Let's keep the rides that are not affected by the wind and withdraw the rest, and also offer a 1,000 won discount on participation fees."
As the group dance challenge began, Jeong Won-oh showed off his dance moves when the practiced songs like 'Whiplash' played.
The third boss to appear was master chef Ahn Yoo-sung. He hosted the 'National Sushi King Competition' and searched his disciple's body, asking, "Are you wearing socks? What about underwear?" It turned out he had gifted his disciple a pair of red underwear and socks, calling them "my number one treasure in my heart."
Ahn Yoo-sung explained, "It's like a talisman. I kept failing, but I passed wearing those. I failed during 'Black and White Chef' because I didn't wear them."
As the competition began, Ahn Yoo-sung challenged Koji, a three-star Michelin chef from Tokyo, to a sushi duel. Koji responded, "It's disadvantageous for me. It's not my rice, aged fish, or soy sauce," indicating a somewhat unfavorable situation. In response, Jeon Hyun-moo commented, "It's all about you."
As the competition started, many people lined up to judge. Ahn Yoo-sung, who sold out his sushi before Koji, smiled brightly.
Thirty minutes before the main event, the disciple realized he hadn't brought a cutting board. Three minutes before the competition, he asked a friend to bring him a cutting board, barely completing his preparations.
Aiming to go from second place to first, he focused intensely on his cooking. After the competition ended, Ahn Yoo-sung asked, "How much do you think you utilized? 98%? The remaining 2% will be filled by the red socks and underwear," cheering him on.
As the judging began, the masters commented on last year's first place winner, saying, "The garnish is too much," and "You show professional tenacity," offering both praise and criticism.
Next was the turn of Ahn Yoo-sung's disciple, Chef Lim Hyun-min. Koji remarked, "Sushi is a one-bite art, but we cut this one. Sushi requires meticulousness," expressing his disappointment. Other masters also agreed, saying, "It's a bit lower than last year."
As the award ceremony approached, Chef Lim Hyun-min appeared nervous, but first place went to another participant. Second place was taken by last year's winner, Chef Han Dae-won, while Lim Hyun-min won third place.
Ahn Yoo-sung lamented, "Why did you only get third place? It's because you didn't wear the red underwear," expressing his disappointment.
'Sadangui' can be seen every Sunday at 4:45 PM on KBS2.
