Noh Hong Chul gets jealous of Verbal Jint on ‘Infinity Challenge’

Who is better looking? Comedian Noh Hong Chul or rapper Verbal Jint?

On the August 25th episode of MBC‘s ‘Infinity Challenge‘, Verbal Jint appeared on the show to deliver the mission to the members. Two weeks ago, the rapper appeared as the Russian Roulette game host during the ‘As I Say’ episode. It seems that PD Kim Tae Ho was satisfied with his performance and decided to put him on again for this week’s ‘You Go To Hawaii’ episode.

As Verbal Jint appeared on a TV screen to deliver the mission, Noh Hong Chul asked, “Verbal Jint! Are you now officially part of the show?“ Park Myung Soo then said, “Now that I see him again, Verbal Jint is actually really good looking.” Noh Hong Chul started getting jealous and jokingly dissed the rapper by saying, “I think he has a really big head.”

In the past, Noh Hong Chul was selected as the ‘best looking’ Infinity Challenge member during the ‘You’re Beautiful’ (parody of the SBS drama). Also, the comedian was consistently made fun of by the members to have a huge head hidden under his trademark beard.

In related news, the seven members of Infinity Challenge were given a mission to pass all the rounds with different tasks in order to receive a ticket to Hawaii.

‘Infinity Challenge’ cast reported to have booked tickets to London for the London Olympics

MBC‘s ‘Infinity Challenge‘, which is currently on a hiatus from broadcast due to a strike, has been earning interest for the cast’s decision to take off to London for the London Olympics.

The team, including Yoo Jae Suk and Park Myung Soo, have bought tickets for a week long stay in London lasting from the end of July to the beginning of August. The only ones left who have yet to reserve their tickets are PD Kim Tae Ho and a few writers. It is currently not yet known if they will continue with the strike or join in with the other cast members to make this trip to put on an Olympics special of the show.

In a phone interview, a representative revealed, “The members were of the opinion that they would not go if Kim Tae Ho PD did not go initially, but that is slowly starting to change. More than anything, the viewers want an episode focusing on the London Olympics, so the members’ wish to make it happen are being carefully delivered to Kim Tae Ho PD.”

Are all three Busker Busker members in relationships?

Band Busker Busker‘s Jang Bum Joon (23) and Kim Hyung Tae (21) hinted that the two may be in relationships.

The group guested on the April 19th episode of Mnet‘s ‘Beatles Code 2‘ and shared some interesting stories with its viewers, including some details about their personal love lives.

The hosts of ‘Beatles Code 2′ started the topic by questioning the two members whether they were currently in a relationship. Jang Bum Joon and Kim Hyung Tae were hesitant to answer and stayed quiet.

In order to get an answer, MC Shin Dong Yup began attacking the two with tough questions like, “Are you [and the girl] staying in touch, but not dating yet?“, “Tell us whether she’s a singer or an actress“, and more. The Busker Busker members didn’t fall for the barrage of questions until Jang Bum Joon finally replied, “What should I say?”

Legendary ballad group 015B member Jang Ho Il, who had also guested on this episode, questioned Brad if he had ever met Jang Bum Joon’s girlfriend. Brad answered, “I don’t remember,” adding to the curiosity about his fellow member’s love life.

The hosts came to a conclusion stating, “We’ll assume that all three of you are in a relationship.”

This wasn’t the first time Jang Bum Joon’s single status was questioned. On April 13th, a segment titled ‘Shocking Interview‘ under tvN‘s ‘ENews‘ put the singer on the spot when they asked the same question. His response, “I’m not sure,” had fans speculating that the singer was indeed in a relationship.
