Yoo Jae-suk left stunned as AI picks him to pay for the meal
Members question if a real person is behind the AI's sharp wit

A lively on-screen showdown between comedian Yoo Jae-suk and an artificial intelligence is set to entertain viewers on the August 16 broadcast of MBC’s variety show “Hangout With Yoo.”
In the upcoming episode, Yoo Jae-suk and the other cast members spend the day following the recommendations of an AI, resulting in unexpected and hilarious chaos. After the meal, the cast even leaves the task of deciding who pays to the AI, in a playful twist that quickly becomes the segment’s highlight.
Without missing a beat, the AI names “Yoo Jae-suk” as the one responsible for settling the bill, sparking laughter and cheers from the other members. Heo Kyung-hwan marvels, “Does it know how much money you have?” as Yoo Jae-suk, clearly surprised, retorts, “Why me?” to the amusement of everyone present.
The situation escalates when the AI offers another witty and logical response, leaving Yoo Jae-suk even more bewildered. Flustered by the AI’s astute answers, he asks, “How did you know?” showcasing his shock and giving viewers another reason to laugh.


Yoo Jae-suk then gets into a spirited “argument” with the AI, declaring, “Just wait until later,” but the AI cheekily fires back, filling the set with laughter. Astounded, Yoo Jae-suk questions, “Can an AI really say something like that?” prompting suspicions among the cast about whether a real person is operating behind the scenes.
Ultimately, Yoo Jae-suk finds himself fixated on the AI’s antics, with fellow members encouraging him to let it go. The tension rises as he demands the AI to find an animal lookalike for him—making everyone eager to see the result.
Fans can catch all the fun between Yoo Jae-suk and the AI on MBC’s “Hangout With Yoo,” airing August 16 at 6:30 p.m.
