'I Live Alone' featured actress Ryu Hye-young showcasing a happy routine of filling her ordinary days at her own pace, while Code Kunst launched a spirited support campaign for his close friends Epik High and the South Korean national football team.

According to Nielsen Korea, a TV ratings survey company, the the 19th broadcast of MBC's 'I Live Alone' recorded a viewership of 5.5% nationwide and 6.1% in the Seoul metropolitan area, ranking first among Friday variety programs. Additionally, the 2054 viewership, a key indicator of channel competitiveness reflecting changes in media consumption environments, also reached 4.1%, securing the top spot among Friday variety programs.

'The Best One Minute' of the day featured Ryu Hye-young clearing her favorite dish, raw fish rice bowl, and practicing her 'daily journal writing,' a habit she has maintained every day for five years. She revealed the reason she started keeping a journal: "I think I started writing because my heart was heavy. It was a period of such anxiety that I couldn't even sit still at home, but at least when I was writing, I was sitting calmly on my chair." Her consistent adherence to this routine impressed Rainbow members, and viewership soared to a peak of 7.0%.

'I Live Alone' star Ryu Hye-young, who has been living alone for 11 years, displayed a daily life that fully fills ordinary days with unadorned honesty and firm convictions. She personally decorated her apartment, gathered life wisdom by watching 'housewife vlogs,' and drew attention with her 'god-life routine' of never neglecting foreign language study and reading.

'Slow runner' Ryu Hye-young, in her third year of the activity, said, "Even if you're a turtle, as long as you arrive," enjoying a sense of accomplishment by running at her own pace without being swept up by others. Her habit of taking an elevator and then a taxi during 'slow running' caused a mix of joy and sorrow between 'Pun-run founder' Jeon Hyun-moo and 'Jjin-run icon' Ki-an 84, sparking laughter. Ryu Hye-young then recharged her dopamine by drawing a random capsule to pick her favorite character and enjoyed a happy meal featuring her favorite dish, raw fish rice bowl, which she eats four times a week, and her favorite drink combination that she misses more than kimchi even overseas.

'I Live Alone' star Ryu Hye-young also confessed about the period she spent filled with fear and anxiety due to the overwhelming attention she received from 'Reply 1988.' She shared her current mindset: "I think everyone has their own timing. At some point, people told me, 'You are so pretty, beautiful, healthy, and young. Why are you hiding? Go out. Live as you want. Do what you want to do now.' Those words piled up and truly became my strength, so I've become less afraid of the world these days."

'I Live Alone' star Ryu Hye-young also added, "Sometimes, when others pass me by, I feel anxious and tend to speed up. But I don't need to do that; I should just go at my own pace. After passing through all those times, I feel I have grown a lot," leaving a deep impression on viewers.

Meanwhile, Code Kunst and Epik High poured out their passion by cheerfully supporting the South Korean national football team without hesitation. Code Kunst, the 'football expert' and representative of Rainbow, confessed, "Football is the only thing that excites me."

Dressed in a football jersey bearing his own name and becoming a 'Red Devil,' Code Kunst met Epik High in his studio. He expressed his affectionate feelings toward Epik High, calling them the former owners of his studio and the older brothers who first discovered his potential. The 'hysterical support campaign' began with chicken.

Tablo confessed his own football game jinx, saying, "I always have to go to the bathroom right before a goal." In fact, South Korea's first goal was scored while he was in the bathroom, and the scene unfolded where Tablo was chased back to the bathroom again with the shout, "Lock it with the bathroom key!" sparking laughter. Additionally, Code Kunst, who predicted goals by players Hwang In-beom and Oh Hyun-kyu before the match started, played the role of 'Octopus Teacher.'
