In the latest episode of Wavve's variety show 'Seok Sam Play,' Ji Suk-jin expressed his astonishment at Lee Sang-yeop's wife's stunning looks.

The fifth episode featured Ji Suk-jin, Jeon So-min, Lee Sang-yeop, and Lee Mi-joo embarking on their third domestic trip to Chuncheon, Gangwon Province, after their previous excursion to Jeju Island. The anticipation for a surprise guest turned into mild disappointment for Lee Mi-joo when rapper Nucksal appeared instead of the expected actor Gong Myung.

During the journey to Chuncheon, Nucksal found himself amidst the unhurried, P-type personalities of the main cast and even took the initiative to book a rental car. Upon arriving in Chuncheon, Ji Suk-jin unexpectedly posed a question to Lee Sang-yeop, asking why his wife chose to marry him.

Both Jeon So-min and Ji Suk-jin recounted their encounters with Lee Sang-yeop's wife, with Ji Suk-jin remarking that he initially mistook her for an actress due to her exceptional beauty. Lee Sang-yeop, playfully responding, confessed his deep devotion to his wife, joking that his knees were worn out from being so loyal.

Faced with a significantly reduced budget, the cast and Nucksal plunged into a 'challenging trip,' enforcing strict spending controls. They even discussed deducting Nucksal's train fare from Ji Suk-jin's appearance fee and suggested an 8,000 won market-bought pair of pants for Lee Mi-joo's urgent need. Despite the budget constraints, they found satisfaction in affordable local market meals and showcased surprisingly good chemistry during an 'anti-telepathy' game, proving that their lack of coordination made their interactions even more entertaining.

Ji Suk-jin, a veteran entertainer who debuted in 1992, has enjoyed a long and beloved career in the entertainment industry. He is particularly well-known to global fans through the show 'Running Man.' His humorous and witty remarks bring laughter to many viewers, making him a central figure in long-running variety programs.
