Yoo Jae-suk and Friends Clean Up for Exam Day

In the latest episode of MBC's variety show, 놀면 뭐하니? (How Do You Play?), Yoo Jae-suk, Kim Seok-hoon, Park Jin-joo, and Lee Yi-kyung took on the role of 'cleaning fairies' to help prepare the streets for students taking the College Scholastic Ability Test (수능) and for commuters heading to work.

Airing on November 23 at 6:25 PM, this episode titled 'Waking Up to Prepare for Winter' features the four transforming into environmental officials as they embark on a street cleaning mission.

Gathering at 4 AM, the group was taken aback by the sheer volume of fallen leaves covering the sidewalks. Having only seen the cleaned streets maintained by environmental officials before, they were surprised by the extent of the mess.

Since the day coincided with the 수능, the team was even more motivated to ensure a thorough clean-up. Working in pairs, Yoo Jae-suk and Kim Seok-hoon teamed up, while Park Jin-joo and Lee Yi-kyung tackled the task of sweeping and collecting leaves repeatedly.

Photos released from the episode show a stark contrast between the before and after of the streets they cleaned, highlighting their efforts. Yoo Jae-suk expressed his pride, stating, "We cleaned the path for the students taking the exam. I feel accomplished."

However, as the work proved to be more challenging than expected, Yoo Jae-suk remarked, "I can’t believe I’m doing this," while sweating profusely. Despite the early morning chill, his enthusiasm for the cleaning task led him to remove his work uniform, raising curiosity about the extent of their efforts in the upcoming broadcast.
