Cha Tae-hyun's Hilarious Sacrifice for 'Handsome Guys' Ends in Empty Hands

Actor Cha Tae-hyun went to great lengths for a game on tvN's 'Handsome Guys,' only to end up with no rewards, creating a comically unfortunate situation.

In the episode aired on the 2nd, members Lee Yi-kyung, Cha Tae-hyun, Shin Seung-ho, and Kim Dong-hyun (excluding Oh Sang-wook) embarked on a trip with a special mission: to eat meals excluding meat, carbohydrates, and carbonated drinks.

The production team set up various games with prizes like ramen, cola, and beef. Having endured a vegetarian diet since morning, the cast members particularly lamented the lack of carbohydrates.

The game, 'Blindfolded Water Balloon Dodge,' offered ramen, cola, and spicy stir-fried chicken as prizes. Lee Yi-kyung's initial failure quickly brought laughter to the set.

Cha Tae-hyun, however, showed remarkable agility, dodging most of the water balloons. But on his fourth attempt, a balloon unfortunately hit his face. According to the game rules, failure is only declared if the balloon bursts. Since it didn't, Cha Tae-hyun was disqualified.

When Lee Yi-kyung expressed surprise, saying, "What kind of balloon doesn't pop?" Cha Tae-hyun quipped with a sigh, "I wish I had a nosebleed. Then I could have eaten."

Netizens reacted with amusement to Cha Tae-hyun's predicament, commenting, "Cha Tae-hyun was so funny, lol! He should have gotten a nosebleed!" and "'Handsome Guys' is so fun! The members' chemistry is the best." Many expressed anticipation for the next episode.
