On the June 15th broadcast of SBS's 'uh, but like, seriously!', the girl group ILLIT visited Su-ji's boarding house.

The episode revealed the childhood photos of the ILLIT members, showcasing their natural beauty that has remained unchanged to this day.

MINJU, in particular, shared a story about being mistaken for a ghost because of her pale skin. She explained, "I was heading home with my makeup still on, so my skin looked very pale. My hair was also let down. As I was walking down a secluded street, an elderly man saw me, started shouting 'Hey, hey, hey, it's a ghost!' into his phone, and suddenly started sprinting away."

The panelists jokingly responded, "He probably thought he was going to die if he saw a ghost," bringing laughter to the set.

Meanwhile, the end of the broadcast teased appearances by Kim Dae-ho and Yoo In-young, raising anticipation for the next episode.
