'I Live Alone' group Girls' Generation's Yuri has revealed her first day as 'Jeju District Chief Kwon'.

According to Nielsen Korea, a ratings survey company, the peak viewership for MBC's 'I Live Alone', which aired the previous day, soared to 8.9%, securing first place among Friday entertainment programs with a 2054 demographic rating of 4.1%. The 'Best One-Minute' segment featured Yuri making and eating 'cod roe kelp pot rice' by adding plenty of cod roe grilled in butter to kelp she personally harvested from the Jeju sea. Yuri enjoying a neatly set table of 'cod roe kelp pot rice' brought healing to viewers, pushing the peak viewership up to 8.9%.

On this day, Girls' Generation's Yuri's realistic life in Jeju and Part 2 of the '1st Rainbow Summer Training Camp' were revealed.

'I Live Alone' marked the first time Girls' Generation's Yuri shared her daily life living in Jeju. As a third-year resident of Jeju, Yuri struggled from morning to combat humidity and insects. Despite screaming at unexpected insects found in various places, she showed courage by solving problems in her own way, highlighting the hardships of realistic Jeju living.

Additionally, Yuri captured attention with her romantic daily routine of riding a motorcycle along the Jeju coastal road. In particular, she enjoyed walking with her neighbor dog 'Ddonggeul-i', whom she visits every day, and shared meals of 'octopus ramen' and 'stir-fried octopus' with the regular restaurant owners who helped her establish her independence in Jeju. Seeing Yuri, no longer as a member of Girls' Generation but as human Kwon Yuri, sharing family-like daily life with people she met on Jeju Island revealed the charm of the warm-hearted 'Jeju District Chief Kwon'.

While riding her motorcycle, Yuri headed toward the sea and, calling it "my mart," naturally harvested kelp at a beach where seafood could be collected, showing off her 'natural person' side that drew laughter. Rainbow members expressed admiration for Yuri, who not only mastered seasonal seafood from the sea but also learned cooking techniques.

Regarding her reason for choosing life in Jeju, she confessed, "When I was busy with activities, glamorous spotlights and endless schedules brought me happiness and popularity, but my personal life felt empty." She added, "When I asked myself, 'What can I do on my own?' I realized it was far too insufficient." She continued, "In Jeju, I focus more on eating and living. Rather than worrying about what is seen or highlighted, being close to nature gives me confidence: 'Kwon Yuri, you can do this! Just try!' This reveals her affection and satisfaction with life in Jeju."

Meanwhile, the highlight of the '1st Rainbow Summer Training Camp,' the 'Rainbow Night,' unfolded. The talent show stage, featuring an enormous lineup of prizes, was filled with passion and enthusiasm from Rainbow members. First, Jeon Hyun-moo introduced himself as a "guest singer," transforming into 'Moolit (Jeon Hyun-moo + Ailee)' to kick off the performance with his 'It's Mool' stage. The unexpected 'Moolit' performance triggered simultaneous cheers and sighs from Rainbow members. Feeling regretful over their reaction, Jeon Hyun-moo confessed that he had spent 300,000 won to learn the choreography, sparking laughter.

Next, the team 'Meokkkaebi × Goblin,' formed by Koo Sung-hwan and Park Kyung-hye, lifted the mood with their performance of 'Candy in My Ear.' Bae Na-ra sang her nostalgic karaoke favorite 'Thorns,' prompting Rainbow members to sing along together. Additionally, popular comedians Ki Han-84 and Kim Dae-ho dressed as 'Taegi84' and 'Junho84,' performing a stage of Seo Taiji and Boys' 'Comeback Home.' While boasting impressive visual synchronization, their performance fell short compared to their practice, leaving some regret.

Other acts included comedian Lee Sun-min's toy acting, Code Kunst's dizzying tablecloth pull, and other individual skills. The performers endured embarrassment while watching their own stages in the studio by engaging in a 'shame-off,' which added humor.

Additionally, Minho's passionate performance of 'If You Ask Me' and Kim Shin-young's 'Within 10 Minutes' stage, led by 'Auntie Davi' who dominated the 'Rainbow Night,' turned the venue into a sea of excitement. Finally, the 'Cooling Cooling' team, formed by youngest members Park Ji-hyun, Joy, and Seo Beom-jun, performed their song 'Sorrow' with such high production quality that it resembled music broadcasts, earning strong applause.

After all stages of 'Rainbow Night' concluded, the grand prize was selected through direct voting. After a close competition between 'Auntie Davi,' who swept the stage with dazzling performances, and the fresh and lively 'Cooling Cooling,' Kim Shin-young emerged as the grand prize winner. Rainbow members, full of energy and charisma, happily shared the prizes and concluded the night of the '1st Rainbow Summer Training Camp.' After the broadcast, the full video of the 13th-person talent show by Rainbow members was released on the official 'I Live Alone' channel, adding to the viewing enjoyment.

The preview released at the end of the broadcast teased Lee Ju-seung returning as 'Director Lee,' and featured Ki Han-84, Minho, and Bae Na-ra teaming up as the 'Real Run Crew,' generating anticipation.
