  • Choi Kang-rok showed consideration by trying to claim a larger room on the show 'Nolleo Koseuteo'.
  • His attempt to secure the prime spot was unsuccessful, with others dismissing his reasoning.
  • The episode featured the cast traveling to Spain for the new variety show.

On the newly premiered MBC variety show 'Nolleo Koseuteo' (roughly translated as 'Let's Go Play'), cast member Choi Kang-rok attempted to assert his preference for a larger room in their Spanish accommodation. He framed his request as an act of consideration for others, suggesting he should take the bigger space.

However, his reasoning was quickly dismissed by his fellow cast members. They found his justification unconvincing, with one remarking that his argument "doesn't hold water." The scene highlighted a moment of lighthearted conflict and negotiation among the group as they settled into their lodging.

The episode, which aired on June 21st, featured hosts Noh Hong-chul, Choi Kang-rok, Go Kyung-pyo, and Panny Bottle embarking on their trip to Spain. The initial moments in the accommodation involved the practical matter of assigning rooms, leading to Choi Kang-rok's unsuccessful bid for the most desirable sleeping arrangement.

It doesn't hold water.
