Chapter 46

Facing the crowd without a single additional act of resistance, PD Kim Tae-ho, who was well aware of the situation, slowly adjusted his slightly slipping glasses and continued to look at them expressionlessly.

"Hey! Hey! Hey! If the director tells you to scrub, you just go in and scrub! What’s with all the nonsense!" In response, Park Myung-soo, who had been listening to the noisy group with complete impatience, directly reprimanded them. Well, this guy showed a complete attitude of indifference towards the situation and directly scolded the surrounding younger members who were continuously expressing their resistance.

Indeed, after being cultivated by the selfish nature of Infinite Challenge, even in this matter, the group could no longer reach a consensus.

Taking advantage of the brief silence created by Park Myung-soo’s reprimand, Yoo Jae-suk began to persuade them, "Although we are the first domestic variety reality show, Infinite Challenge, we won’t broadcast the black mud that comes off during the scrubbing for the audience to see. So, everyone can rest assured."

In response, Haha immediately chimed in, "Bro, you’ve said this many times before, and the things you said wouldn’t be broadcasted in the past ended up being broadcasted!"

Well, sweat drop! Persuasion failed. Faced with Haha’s words, Yoo Jae-suk could only give an embarrassed smile.

However, the group, who had long been accustomed to the program’s tricks, were merely taking advantage of the situation verbally.

Before long, as the group’s banter continued, the topic veered further off track. Initially, they were opposing the scrubbing, but somehow, the conversation shifted to teasing the second-in-command, Park Myung-soo.

In the end, it was Yoo Jae-suk, the core of the group, who brought the topic back on track.

"Dear viewers, although we are recording the New Year’s special, the actual shooting date is nearly a month ahead of time. So, if you see things that don’t match the time, please don’t be surprised. Now, let’s start the recording of Infinite Challenge’s 2006 New Year’s special. Welcome everyone to watch, let’s scrub together! Infinite...!"

"Challenge!"

However, thinking about the upcoming shooting, Yoo Jae-suk still felt very uncomfortable about having to scrub in front of all the viewers of Infinite Challenge, "I really don’t think this is a good idea."

Of course, this was said based on his current feelings as a participant.

On the other hand, in the eyes of PD Kim Tae-ho, this was definitely a good idea.

At the ticket counter, each of them received a hand tag, and the group of seven pushed and shoved their way up to the second floor. Here, the remaining staff had already set up the cameras and were waiting.

Moreover, all the cameras were on, aimed at the lockers corresponding to the numbers on the hand tags held by Yoo Jae-suk and the others.

"Hey, guys, we need to change clothes now, can’t you turn off the cameras for a bit?" Seeing the unscrupulous staff and the writers squatting nearby, Yoo Jae-suk’s face was completely filled with helplessness.

In response, the writers squatting nearby used their mainboards to cover their faces, but all the cameras still tightly focused on Yoo Jae-suk and the others who were standing in front of the lockers.

"I’m really taking off my clothes, really!" Seeing this, Roh Hong-jeok directly unzipped his jacket, his tone full of threat.

Well, these people still didn’t quite believe that they were really going to film their scrubbing.

In response, the still-on cameras gave them the most correct answer.

With no choice, Yoo Jae-suk, who was powerless in this situation, could only seriously negotiate with the staff, "I now firmly believe that you will film us scrubbing, but at the very least, let us change our clothes first!"

But before Yoo Jae-suk’s negotiation could yield any results, Park Myung-soo, who had already thrown caution to the wind, directly said, "Hey! What’s there to negotiate! Our bodies no longer belong to us, they belong to the viewers, so let them film!"

Continuing to be speechless, it seemed that this guy was going crazy today.

"Bro Myung-soo, you’re not really going to take off your clothes, are you!" Immediately, Park Myung-soo’s actions made Yoo Jae-suk’s eyes widen. This guy actually took off his coat and then started to take off his thermal underwear.

"Ah, Bro Myung-soo!" Well, under everyone’s stunned gaze, Park Myung-soo had already taken off all his upper body clothing. In response, Yoo Jae-suk and Haha, who were standing next to Park Myung-soo, quickly blocked him, manually censoring him.

"Ah! Bro Jun-ho, why are you taking off your clothes too!" Turning around, Yoo Jae-suk suddenly found that Jung Jun-ho’s pants had also disappeared, leaving only a pair of shorts.

"Ah! I don’t care anymore!" Seeing this, Yoo Jae-suk also started to take off his clothes.

"Hey, Jae-suk, don’t take off your clothes, the writers and assistants are all coming in." Seeing this, Jung Hae-in, who was standing next to Yoo Jae-suk, quickly stopped him.

Following Jung Hae-in’s gaze, it turned out that all the female writers and makeup assistants from the program had already blocked the entrance. The most daring was writer Kim Tae-hee, who had already removed the paperboard she was using to cover her face and was now standing behind the camera, directly facing Yoo Jae-suk.

"Hey, what are you doing, Kim Tae-hee?" With wide eyes, Jung Hae-in looked at the writer with the same name as a famous actress, completely terrified, as if he had seen a powerful female thug.

In response, Kim Tae-hee’s face turned slightly red, but she quickly replied to Jung Hae-in, "I’m not here to look at you, so why do you care! And even if I were to look at your body, I wouldn’t be interested!"

Bang! A fresh skull for you!

And in response to this attack from the female writer, the chubby guy was completely speechless!

Instantly, feeling both ashamed and angry, Jung Hae-in also burst out. He steeled his resolve, glared, and with both hands, he tightly grabbed the bottom of his coat and suddenly pulled it up.

"Ah~~~~!"

Instantly, a series of screams filled the entire changing room!

"Indeed, these people were instantly scared by my physique." Feeling proud, although his clothes were blocking his view, Yoo Jae-suk imagined the female writers and assistants hurriedly dodging after seeing his physique, which made him feel quite satisfied, despite the nervousness of exposing his body to the camera.

Thinking about this, Yoo Jae-suk’s movements also sped up, and he took off his clothes.

However, at this point, he realized that the female writers and assistants were not looking at him, but...

"(⊙o⊙) Wow! Jae-suk, your physique is absolutely amazing, so cool!" Next to him, Haha, looking at Yoo Jae-suk’s now exposed upper body, couldn’t help but praise him.

However, for Yoo Jae-suk, he was already regretting his rash action. Especially under the intense gazes of so many women, he felt extremely embarrassed.

After four months of continuous fitness training, Yoo Jae-suk’s originally not very prominent muscle lines had become quite aesthetically pleasing, especially his prominent pectoral muscles and the six-pack abs, which made the surrounding Infinite Challenge members extremely envious.

As for the female audience members who had come specifically to see Yoo Jae-suk, they were completely crazy.

Their cheeks, which had been pale, turned rosy, especially Yoo Jae-suk’s slightly shy demeanor, which made the surrounding female ‘audience members’ who knew today’s shooting content completely adore him.

And at this moment, due to Yoo Jae-suk’s sudden exposure, the instant viewership rating during the broadcast reached 23.4%, and the next day, it directly topped the search charts.

Therefore, Yoo Jae-suk earned his second title in Infinite Challenge—Absolute Body!

However, compared to the comedic titles, this was just a simple praise for his physique, but compared to the initial title—Infinite Challenge Mascot, it was much better. This also indicated that Yoo Jae-suk’s integration into the program was gradually approaching success.

But at the current shooting site, facing the increasingly intense gazes of the surrounding women, Yoo Jae-suk, as the senior, directly used his body to shield the now completely shy Yoo Jae-suk.

At this point, the shooting crew, having obtained enough footage for editing, followed PD’s instructions and turned off the cameras.

In response, the MCs, no longer worried about their physiques being exposed to the entire nation, began to change their clothes under the completely ‘inspecting’ gazes of the surrounding people.

And the one who received the most attention was Yoo Jae-suk, who had been continuously training for four months.

PS: Regarding some readers’ questions about the mix of other elements in this variety entertainment, I’ll explain a bit. Due to the timeline, the design for 2005 is mainly about the start. From now on, entering 2006, it will be the expansion of the variety show, and the special episodes designed by Yoo Jae-suk himself will soon appear. I hope everyone will like it.

Also, next Sunday, there will be a category news push for Yoo Jae-suk. I will still guarantee two updates, but if the clicks and recommendations are good, I will increase to three or even four updates. I hope everyone will support Yoo Jae-suk’s creation.
