Actor Ryu Seung-ryong is expected to sweat through a team speed dictation game on tvN’s “Amazing Saturday,” repeatedly bowing his head and apologizing politely.
According to tvN, the unusual display will appear during the episode’s strategy-driven team competition, where his unexpectedly deferential manner brings laughter to the studio. The episode will air at 7:30 p.m. on the 5th.
Kim Si-a, who played Ryu’s daughter in a film, will also take part. Ryu will share stories about his Baeksang Arts Awards win and challenge episodes, then serve as a question-setter for an appetizer quiz. His teasing dance is intended to stir the contestants’ competitive spirit, while Kim will reveal her own hidden dancing skills.
