Newlywed Kim Jong-kook has been lauded as the 'Sperm King' by forensic pathologist Professor Yoo Sung-ho.

This week's episode of KBS 2TV's 'Ocktopbang Problem Solvers' features Professor Yoo, a renowned forensic pathologist, as a special guest.

Professor Yoo, often called 'The Man You Can Only Meet After Death' due to his extensive experience with around 3,000 autopsies over 27 years, revealed his past as a top student, having ranked first nationwide in mock exams during high school. He casually mentioned getting only one or two questions wrong, prompting a humorous reaction from MC Yang Se-chan, who quipped, 'I got one or two right.'

When asked about the demanding academic workload of medical students, Professor Yoo calmly stated, 'You just have to do it,' showcasing his exceptional intellect. The 'Ocktopbang' hosts were thoroughly impressed by his remarkable brainpower.

The episode will also delve into the story behind Professor Yoo's decision to pursue forensic pathology instead of becoming a doctor. He shared how a particular lecture and the gaze of a forensic pathology professor during his medical school days inspired him to choose this unique career path.

Professor Yoo also offered health assessments for the 'Ocktopbang' MCs. With his keen ability to gauge health from facial complexion and swelling, he examined the cast. Upon seeing Kim Jong-kook, who recently married in September, Professor Yoo exclaimed, 'Aren't you the Sperm King? Your muscles alone show you're in excellent health,' showering him with praise.

'Ocktopbang Problem Solvers' airs every Thursday at 8:30 PM.

Professor Yoo Sung-ho has conducted approximately 3,000 autopsies over his 27-year career. He demonstrated exceptional academic prowess in his youth, achieving the top rank in nationwide mock exams. This intellectual capability, coupled with his unique professional title, has solidified his distinguished position in the field of forensic pathology.
