[Seoul=RNX News] Reporter Kim Ye-eun = Kim Won-hoon, the main character of the popular YouTube channel ‘Short Box’, visits ‘The Manager’.
In the 358th episode of the MBC entertainment program ‘The Manager’ (planned by Kang Young-sun / directed by Kim Yoon-jip, Jeon Jae-wook, Lee Kyung-soon, Kim Hae-ni, Jeong Dong-sik, Lee Da-woon / writer Yeo Hyun-jeon / hereinafter referred to as ‘The Manager’), which airs on Saturday, August 2 at 11:10 PM, Kim Won-hoon’s daily life, who has achieved a cumulative YouTube view count of 1.2 billion and has become a trending comedian, will be revealed for the first time.
On this day’s broadcast, Kim Won-hoon will reveal his neat white-toned newlywed home for the first time after his marriage. He also surprises the curious panelists by starting his day with a routine of collecting hair from the bed and doing a thorough cleaning as soon as he wakes up in the morning.
Particularly, he draws laughter by reacting sensitively to even one hair by meticulously shaving his armpits and legs. It is said that he took off his lower garments during the shaving, turning the studio upside down. Kim Won-hoon’s contrasting charm, different from the friendly image in ‘Short Box’, is expected to shine more with activities from a general knowledge quiz to keeping memo notes for events.
Meanwhile, the neatly groomed Kim Won-hoon, appearing with his manager, catches everyone’s attention. His manager, who used to be Yoo Byung-jae’s manager, was warmly welcomed by the curious panelists. However, as the manager continued to bring up stories about Yoo Byung-jae, Kim Won-hoon expressed both jealousy and disappointment by saying, “You talk too much about Byung-jae.”
Curiosity builds around how Yoo Byung-jae reacted to seeing Kim Won-hoon’s new manager, adding intrigue to their intertwined stories.
Additionally, according to the manager, Kim Won-hoon is meticulous about taking care of the people around him, earning the nickname ‘Yoo Jae-suk of YouTube’. Expectations are high to see what kind of episodes are hidden in his daily life and Kim Won-hoon’s multifaceted, humane charm.
