Broadcaster Kim Kook-jin has revealed a surprising new charm by showcasing impressive riding skills on Seoul's public bicycle service, 'Ttareungi'.
The YouTube channel 'Gookjin Gives It a Try' recently released a video documenting Kim Kook-jin's first experience with Ttareungi. Comedian Lee Chan, a long-time collaborator, accompanied him, bringing their familiar chemistry to the screen.

The real surprise began after they started riding. While Lee Chan, who is not very proficient with bicycles, showed signs of an unsteady ride from the beginning, Kim Kook-jin, despite it being his first time on a Ttareungi, demonstrated remarkable balance and precise pedaling.
His quick adaptation to changes in the course further elicited exclamations of surprise from the filming crew. The production team acknowledged his athleticism, commenting, 'He might be clumsy with digital devices, but he's definitely strong when it comes to physical activities.' Kim Kook-jin simply expressed his satisfaction, saying, 'It feels really good.'
Netizens reacted positively, with comments such as, 'Wow, Kook-jin hyung rides the Ttareungi so well! I was surprised by this unexpected side,' and 'It's even more fun watching him with Lee Chan,' praising his skills and their chemistry.
