Kim Hae-joon Publicly Apologizes to Mother-in-Law on 'The Tasty Guys'

Comedian Kim Hae-joon issued a public apology to his mother-in-law during a recent broadcast of the variety show 'THE Tasty Guys'.

On the episode airing this Friday, Kim Hae-joon was heard exclaiming, "Mother-in-law, I'm truly sorry," as he expressed his bewilderment.

The episode features a 'New Writer's Taste Special,' where Kim Jun-hyun, Kim Hae-joon, Moon Se-yoon, and Hwang Je-seong visit restaurants favored by newly joined writers. The cast evaluates the food, ambiance, and offers "taste tips," with the writer whose recommendations score highest receiving gifts prepared by the members.

At the first stop, a halibut soup restaurant, the cast engaged in their signature 'Jjoneum-mat' (bite-sized taste) game before eating. The challenge requires participants to wear a mouth gag and blow the fewest soap bubbles within 30 seconds to earn a "one bite" privilege. However, if any member blows over 30 bubbles, the entire cast receives a special eating benefit.

Kim Hae-joon, the first challenger, struggled to figure out how to put on the mouth gag, leading to delays and amusement. Hwang Je-seong quipped, "Is this a skit? So early in the morning?" while Kim Jun-hyun joked, "He's an ambitious comedian."

When Hwang Je-seong playfully pressured Kim by saying, "Your mother-in-law is watching," Kim Hae-joon suddenly turned to the camera and said, "Mother-in-law, I'm truly sorry. I really don't know how. You probably wouldn't know how to put it on the first time either," eliciting laughter from everyone.

Viewers can find out if Kim Hae-joon, with the members' help, successfully puts on the mouth gag and tackles the 'Jjoneum-mat' mission on 'THE Tasty Guys,' airing Friday at 8 PM KST on Comedy TV.

Korean netizens reacted with amusement, commenting things like "Kim Hae-joon wearing that mouth gag is hilarious lol," "He was really flustered with his mother-in-law watching," and "I'm really looking forward to this episode of The Tasty Guys!"
