On the episode of tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block' airing tonight, June 10, at 8:45 PM, Jensen Huang will make his world-first appearance on an entertainment talk show, sharing his movie-like life story and engaging in a wide-ranging talk.
Right from the start, Jensen Huang shows delightful chemistry with MC Yu Jae-seok, affectionately dubbing him the "MC Champion." He also candidly shares behind-the-scenes stories of his recent, highly talked-about pork belly (samgyeopsal) dinner with Korean business leaders, as well as the origin story of his signature leather jacket fashion. Furthermore, showing his side as a K-pop enthusiast, he reveals his fandom for Hwa Sa and even performs the dance to 'Golden' (from the Netflix animated film 'KPop Demon Hunters') himself.
The broadcast will trace his journey from a nine-year-old boy who immigrated to the United States and washed dishes at a restaurant to becoming the CEO leading a company with a market capitalization of approximately 8,000 trillion KRW. While sharing his philosophy that "no matter what you do, you must give 100% effort," Jensen Huang also reveals his college love story, where he "flirted" with his now-wife by helping her with homework. Additionally, he recounts NVIDIA's crisis when it was just 30 days away from bankruptcy, and his special connection with South Korea, including the days he personally handed out business cards at Yongsan Electronics Market.
In addition, Jensen Huang takes on a special counseling session. From a story about someone losing their entire fortune in stocks to questions about the ideal talent in the AI era, he answers with his unique insight, sharing life philosophies such as "Failure is growth" and "To be great, you must suffer." It is said that Yu Jae-seok, overwhelmed by Jensen Huang's barrage of wise words, held his hands in admiration, calling him "Hyung" (older brother) and saying, "You are the vibe I aspire to."
The episode will also deliver plenty of entertainment, featuring a "balance game" where he is asked to choose his closest friend among business leaders Lee Jae-yong, Chung Eui-sun, and Chey Tae-won, a physiognomy (face reading) analysis by fortune-teller Park Seong-jun, and insights into NVIDIA's corporate culture.
