According to MBC's variety program 'Jeonjajeok Chamgyeom Sijeom' (planned by Kang Young-seon, directed by Kim Yun-jip, Jeon Jae-wook, Gimhaeni, Jung Dong-sik, and Lee Da-un), the episode airing on the 29th will depict a day in the life of Hwang Jae-gyun, whose retirement ceremony was tentatively postponed due to the world's first heatwave.

Hwang Jae-gyun had eagerly awaited his retirement ceremony, even preparing commemorative bats and uniforms with the date marked. However, the extreme heat forced the postponement, causing all his careful preparations to vanish in an instant. Nevertheless, he wrote a farewell speech while waiting for the ceremony to be held again someday. Overcome with emotion, he eventually shed tears, evoking sympathy.

's recent updates on Hwang Jae-gyun, who has returned with a dramatically changed appearance, are also revealed. With long hair and a slimmer physique that sparked widespread discussion, he even earned nicknames such as 'Chuno' and 'Jangchen'. There was a reason for his rigorous diet: aiming to shoot a body profile after retirement, he reduced his body fat percentage to 3.9% over six months, losing a total of 18 kilograms.

However, immediately after completing the body profile shoot, Hwang Jae-gyun faced the unprecedented situation of 'retirement ceremony cancellation', causing him to rapidly shift from 'diet machine' to 'binge-eating machine'. From morning onward, he indulged in pizza, pasta, donuts, and snacks without restraint, unleashing the appetite he had suppressed for so long. Yet, reports suggest that no matter how much he ate, his hunger remained unfulfilled. The episode airs on the 29th at 11:10 PM.
