Comedian Moon Se-yoon from "2 Days and 1 Night" found himself in a tight spot over a single remark.

According to Nielsen Korea, the ratings survey company, on the 5th, the KBS 2TV variety show "2 Days and 1 Night Season 4" (hereinafter "2 Days and 1 Night"), which aired on the 4th, recorded a nationwide viewership rating of 6.9%, maintaining its top position in the same time slot. The scene in which the production team held an emergency meeting with the members as the "hard peach incident," initiated by Moon Se-yoon's suggestion, escalated rapidly, recorded a peak per-minute viewership rating of 9.6%.

Before filming began that day, heavy rain poured down, prompting the production team to completely cancel the outdoor filming scheduled and hastily change the opening to an indoor recording. In this emergency situation where all planned schedules were thwarted, the production team abruptly replaced the travel concept with a "free trip" in which the members would go wherever their feet took them.

The six members, who had earned 17,000 won in pocket money through "Sudden Quiz," embarked on their full-fledged free trip. As the weather improved during the opening recording, the members moved to a kart racing track and carried out a race mission with additional pocket money at stake, earning an extra 60,000 won to secure a total of 77,000 won in pocket money.

Since it was a free trip, the members directly arranged the location for their lunch. The "2 Days and 1 Night" team visited a restaurant that Moon Se-yoon had previously gone to for filming. To add to their pocket money, which was somewhat insufficient for six people's meal, they played a mini-game with the production team, and Kim Jong-min, who stepped forward as the representative, won, securing additional pocket money.

Having secured gal-nak-tang (a soup of beef brisket and octopus), a signature dish of Yeongam County, the "2 Days and 1 Night" team attempted to renegotiate with the production team to also eat stir-fried octopus. Moon Se-yoon revealed that he had a box of hard peaches in his vehicle and proposed a barter exchange by asking, "Do you have any intention of buying a box of hard peaches?" The production team accepted this, and the six members satisfactorily finished their lunch accompanied by stir-fried octopus.

After finishing their meal, the "2 Days and 1 Night" team headed to a photo studio to take a group photo commemorating the 100th day of Lee Yong-jin and Lee Gi-taek's joining. As it was a 100-day commemorative photo, even a shoot with lower garments removed was discussed, but the six members proceeded with a family photo concept.

In the midst of a warm atmosphere like an actual family, the filming proceeded pleasantly, and Lee Yong-jin expressed satisfaction, saying, "I am grateful that the members commemorated 100 days, and the photo shoot was also very good. I feel like I will become closer to the members from today on." Lee Gi-taek also did not hide his happy feelings, stating, "It felt really good. It seems it will be a great memory for a long time."

As the fluctuating weather cleared up, the "2 Days and 1 Night" team moved to Ul-dol-mok, the fierce battleground of the Battle of Myeongnyang, and directly witnessed the historical site where General Yi Sun-sin led a miraculous great victory. Subsequently, the members who took part in the "History Quiz," with a total of 50,000 won in pocket money at stake, displayed history knowledge beyond expectations and secured an additional 30,000 won in pocket money. The six members went to a cafe with the earned pocket money and enjoyed a sweet rest.

After finishing their rest at the cafe, Moon Se-yoon's expression suddenly darkened while they were moving to the base camp. It turned out that the box of hard peaches he had presented as a negotiation card to the production team during lunch did not actually exist. Realizing the situation belatedly, Moon Se-yoon could not hide his anxiety, hastily contacting an acquaintance who is a lawyer to request legal counsel.

After arriving at the base camp, the production team holding cameras swarmed into the members' room, and an impromptu press conference regarding Moon Se-yoon's "hard peach incident" unfolded. The production team stated that they had reported the matter to the company (KBS) because they judged it was not something to be resolved among themselves alone, clarifying that this incident was by no means a trivial matter.

Moon Se-yoon, taken aback by the situation growing larger than expected, bowed his head saying, "I am sorry to KBS, the '2 Days and 1 Night' production team, and all viewers," while also deploying a desperate tactic by claiming, "The members knew about it." The members, who were incensed by this, strongly reacted with statements like, "We demand Moon Se-yoon's suspension from appearing on KBS" and "We will sue Mr. Moon Se-yoon," eliciting laughter.

As the "Hard Peach Gate" caused by Moon Se-yoon's misunderstanding grew uncontrollably, curiosity is growing about what treatment the "2 Days and 1 Night" production team will impose and how the free trip of the six members, which began in heavy rain, will come to an end.
