Song Hye-kyo Shares a 25-Year-Old Story with Yoo Jae-suk and Addresses Her Rumors (You Quiz on the Block)

Actress Song Hye-kyo is set to make her first variety show appearance in 23 years.

On January 7, tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block' (commonly referred to as 'You Quiz') announced her participation through their official Instagram account. Later that day, the show's YouTube channel, "You Quiz on the Tube," released a teaser video titled "25 Years Ago, What Happened Between 'Yoo Jae-suk' and Song Hye-kyo at Bennigan’s (Family Restaurant)?"

In the preview, host Yoo Jae-suk starts a conversation with Song by saying, "At Bennigan’s back then..." to which she asks, "Is it okay to mention the name?" while recalling the memory. Yoo humorously explained, "My friend, Song Eun-yi , said, 'Let’s grab a meal,' and asked if Hye-kyo could join us for a bit," but Song corrected him, saying, "You said, 'I’ll treat them all, let’s all get together,' so everyone came along." This left Yoo flustered as he responded, "Did I really say that?"

The episode promises to delve into a variety of stories from Song’s past.

From her high school days when she was nicknamed the "Eunkwang High School Ulzzang" alongside Fin.K.L’s Lee Jin, to her connections with stars like Kim Hye-soo and Suzy, Song’s personal anecdotes are set to excite viewers.

Additionally, Song surprises co-host Jo Se-ho, whom she met for the first time, with a wedding gift and shares a heartwarming gesture for the 'You Quiz' production team, adding a touch of warmth to the episode.

She will also share candid stories about her career, starting with her debut at the age of 17 after winning a school uniform modeling contest. Song will reflect on her journey as a top star, discussing pivotal works such as 'Soonpoong Clinic,' 'Autumn in My Heart,' 'All In,' and 'The Glory.'

The actress will open up about struggles with rumors and gossip over the years and reveal how she overcame them through a mysterious "five-year discipline." Host Yoo Jae-suk praised her storytelling, saying, "You get completely drawn into Song Hye-kyo's talk."

The episode promises to showcase Song Hye-kyo’s professional, personal, and heartfelt side, offering viewers an in-depth look at the actress behind the screen.
