THE BOYZ's Younghoon, Yang Se-chan & Kim Dae-ho Transform into 'Exam-Goers Trio' for 'House On Wheels' in Noryangjin

On the upcoming MBC broadcast of 'House On Wheels' on the 13th, THE BOYZ member Younghoon, along with entertainer Yang Se-chan and announcer Kim Dae-ho, will embark on a special regional exploration.

To celebrate the end of the 2026 College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT), the team heads to Noryangjin in Dongjak-gu, Seoul, a district bustling with dreams. They will meet young people pursuing their aspirations in this area, known for its numerous cram schools for both university entrance exams and civil service tests.

Kim Sook and Park Na-rae highlighted Noryangjin's strategic location, stating, 'It's adjacent to major Seoul districts like Yeouido, Yongsan-gu, and Gangnam-gu, and serves as a transportation hub connecting Gangnam and Gangbuk.' They also mentioned the ongoing Noryangjin New Town development.

Younghoon, Yang Se-chan, and Kim Dae-ho will take on the roles of an idol trainee, a judicial exam candidate, and a repeat student dreaming of becoming an announcer, respectively, as the 'Exam-Goers Trio' for this Noryangjin exploration.

Before the main segment, the show's 'coders' reminisced about their own CSAT-ending days. Kim Sook recalled, 'As part of the first CSAT generation, I got my ears pierced in Nampo-dong, Busan, out of sheer liberation.' Joo Woo-jae shared, 'I was happy just looking at the empty sky. When I got home and checked my estimated score, I cried so much seeing it was over 400 points.'

The trio ventured into Noryangjin's academy district. Kim Dae-ho, standing before a large cram school, revealed, 'I actually attended this academy during my repeat year.' He gazed at the significantly changed Noryangjin landscape, noting the demolition of the pedestrian overpass that had connected Noryangjin Station to the academy area for 35 years.

Meanwhile, Younghoon shared a unique memory of the Noryangjin Fish Market. He confessed, 'I came to the fish market in 2019 to practice dancing ahead of our comeback,' adding, 'I danced without music in front of the vendors then,' drawing attention with his anecdote.

Netizens reacted enthusiastically to the news, with comments like 'It's fascinating Younghoon practiced dancing in Noryangjin,' 'Going to Noryangjin to celebrate the end of CSAT makes sense!', and 'This episode of House On Wheels looks like it'll be incredibly fun!' showing their anticipation.
