EXO's D.O. is capturing attention across multiple South Korean variety shows, demonstrating his versatility and charm. Currently performing in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, the K-pop star is appearing in "The Universe's Tteokbokki Store" and "Farm Record," revealing different facets of his persona.
In "The Universe's Tteokbokki Store," D.O. joins comedians Lee Eun-ji, Mimi, Lee Young-ji, and An Yu-jin as they attempt to run a tteokbokki shop. The show features comedic "labor disputes" and unexpected developments, such as the sudden opening of a Seoul branch, which led Lee Young-ji to declare a "strike."
The show also welcomes guest stars like aespa's Karina, dancer Gabee, and D.O. himself. A preview shows D.O. comically admitting he forgot to order tacos, adding to the chaotic yet entertaining atmosphere. The star-studded cast is expected to create many memorable moments.
Meanwhile, "Farm Record" features D.O. alongside his close friends, entertainer Lee Kwang-soo and actor Kim Woo-bin. This humorous rural reality show follows the four inexperienced "city dwellers" as they navigate self-sufficient farm life on Jeju Island. The program has consistently topped viewership ratings for its time slot on cable and general programming channels for five consecutive weeks.
D.O. shines as a reliable "golden maknae" (youngest member) on "Farm Record," contributing efficient work methods and managing tasks effectively. He even humorously participated in a "poop-catching game" with Lee Kwang-soo. The show recently introduced Shin Ye-eun as a new intern, disguised as an aunt, adding another layer of surprise and comedic interaction.
