Actor Kang Ha-neul confessed his claustrophobia.

In the 30th episode of SBS entertainment show 「Whenever I Have a Time」 aired on the 15th, 2MC Yoo Jae-seok and Yoo Yeon-seok visited Magok-dong and gave them a lucky day with only laughter.

Kang Ha-neul and Seo Hyun-woo showed unusual eccentricity from the beginning. The first owner of the gap I visited with them was the management staff of the botanical garden. As soon as Kang Ha-neul met the owner of the gap "Do you plant all the melons at once?", "Do I really feel sick if I eat a lot of Korean melons?," he said, prompting the owner of the gap to burst into laughter. Then "I eat the whole tangerine, too. When he confessed his unique taste in eating, "Shrimp eats everything from head to tail," Yoo Jae-seok said, `That's how Jung Joon-ha eats,' causing laughter. On the other hand, Seo Hyun-woo surprised everyone again with a nickname from his school days. When Seo Hyun-woo felt embarrassed, saying, "My school days nickname is 'Ecolai', a combination of psycho and Dorai," Yoo Jae-seok lamented, `It was really powerful.'




The first game is 'Building a Water Bottle'. Seo Hyun-woo succeeded in the first stage of his first challenge to heat up the atmosphere. Seohyunwoo said, "It's my first time to succeed"When Yoo Jae-seok was puzzled, he said, "Isn't he a stranger?" he exclaimed. When Yoo passed the second stage in his third attempt, Kang Ha-neul was excited and said, "You're not going to put a water bottle on top of it, are you?", causing Yoo Yeon-seok to laugh by worrying wildly. Even when Yoo Yeon-seok and Seo Hyun-woo made it to the third stage on their fourth try, Yoo Jae-seok gave them a thumbs up, saying, `They're masters.'

At this time, Seo Hyun-woo drew attention with his unexpected brain-sexy man appearance. Seo Hyun-woo mentioned his past history, saying, `I entered (university) as an English literature student, dropped out, and I entered Han Ye-jong because I prepared only practical skills in a hurry.' Yoo Yeon-seok "Hyun-woo's glasses are visible again. "I'm different from Jae-seok" and Yoo Jae-seok "Are you saying I'm for face protection?You can't take off your glasses. Hyun-woo caused laughter by cleverly responding, saying, "It's because of studying." On the other hand, Kang Ha-neul confessed to claustrophobia, drawing attention. Kang Ha-neul "If you take the 10,000 won subway, you have to rest at the next station and get on again" and "It's getting worse these days, so it's hard to film a rack car. It's a perfectly designed space, so every time I cut it, I put the window down and come out, and when I shoot, I put the window up again."

The second gap owner that the four people then visited was the airline employees. The game I challenged for the owner of the gap is 'Carrier Curling'. Seo Hyun-woo started over-immersing by shouting "Youngmi!" from the beginning of the practice. With this momentum, Seo Hyun-woo succeeded in the first step with the carrier pushing method, and Yoo Jae-seok exclaimed "He's a batter, he's a batter", and "We're in good form today."," he said, expressing confidence. In response, he succeeded to the second stage with the amazing teamwork of Seo Hyun-woo and Yoo Yeon-seok in the fourth challenge. Even with seven chances left, the gap owners shouted a second-stage stop, which surprised everyone. In response, Seo Hyun-woo "I found out for the first time today that I'm good at games."He was thrilled, and Kang Ha-neul said, `Next time, when I have time, I'd like to apply \," he said, provoking laughter until the end.
