On the 12th at 9 PM, SBS's "What on Earth" will feature a 'Sports Record Special' episode with the 4MCs Jun Hyun-moo, Baek Z Young, Kim Ho-young, and SOOBIN, along with baseball legends Kim Tae-kyun and Yu Hee-kwan as guests in the studio, introducing stories of individuals with astonishing records in sports, including baseball.
In a previous recording, a man, known for his love for the LG Twins, caught everyone's attention by showcasing a unique cheering method while watching the LG Twins' games live. He wore all the starting players' uniforms and displayed each player's uniform as they took the field, which SOOBIN remarked was "like a Russian nesting doll," expressing her amazement.
Already a celebrity among LG Twins fans, he later surprised the production team by revealing his treasure trove of a container. Inside, it was filled with everything from LG Twins baseball caps to signed balls and uniforms. When asked by the production team how many items related to the LG Twins he had, he said, "There are so many, I gave up counting." The production team counted for themselves and were astounded to find 504 jerseys alone, with the total including pants, jackets, caps, and baseballs reaching 872 items.
The studio cast wondered, "How much money did he spend on all that?" The fan candidly replied, "If I were to compare it to a car, it's about the price of a luxury sedan. My wife doesn't know." He also shared his top three favorite items and the reasons why they hold a special place in his heart, sparking curiosity.
Meanwhile, Jun Hyun-moo directly asked Kim Tae-kyun and Yu Hee-kwan, "I heard players receive incentives from their uniform sales. Honestly, how much did you get?" Kim Tae-kyun revealed, "We get 10% of the sales, and at the peak, the annual incentive was about the price of the best domestic sedan." Yu Hee-kwan responded with a bittersweet laugh, "You get that much in a year? I had no idea."
Additionally, in this episode, singer Hong Kyung-min will appear to share stories including that of an unknown gambler who created over 500 well-known cheer songs, the 'Heart-pounding Friendship Club' featuring the activities of 70s and 80s athletes, and the final story of a man suffering from dissociative identity disorder in 'I Am a Person with Multiple Personalities.'
With Kim Tae-kyun and Yu Hee-kwan's perfect chemistry and a 'Sports Record Special' lined up, various untold stories of sports will be unveiled in the third episode of "What on Earth" airing on the 12th (Thursday) at 9 PM.
