Actress Kim Ji-won confesses her anxiety about periods of inactivity.

On the 363rd episode of tvN's "You Quiz on the Block" (hereinafter "You Quiz"), airing at 8:45 p.m. on the 7th, Kim Ji-won appears, marking her return to television after two years.

On this day, Kim Ji-won makes her first solo appearance on a variety show since her debut through "You Quiz." It is also her reunion with Yoo Jae-suk for the first time in about 10 years since her appearance on "Running Man." Kim Ji-won says, "I would like to add two more items to your million good deeds," revealing a surprising anecdote about dental care that even surprised Yoo Jae-suk, eliciting laughter.

Kim Ji-won is set to share behind-the-scenes stories from her debut, as well as hidden tales surrounding her career-defining works. She will reveal anecdotes such as being street-cast during her third year of middle school, nearly debuting as a singer instead of an actress, the process of making her debut through a mobile phone commercial with BIGBANG, and the backstory behind a legendary beverage commercial in which she was brought in as a substitute.

In particular, Kim Ji-won habitually shoots heart-shaped gestures throughout the recording, showcasing her unique lovable charm. According to reports, even the camera director and lighting director on set could not hide their pleased smiles at Kim Ji-won's lovely demeanor as she revisited her legendary cute mannerisms from the drama "Ssam: My Way" for the first time in eight years.

Viewers can also hear behind-the-scenes stories about how she shone with a new character in every work. The program will feature tales of Kim Ji-won's career-defining characters, including the challenges of playing the villain Yoo Ra-hel in "The Heirs," whose personality differed greatly from her own; the backstory behind a famous scene in "Descendants of the Sun" that took five to six hours to complete; the casting story behind "My Liberation Notes," which produced the iconic line "I admire you"; and the behind-the-scenes account of taking on her first chaebol third-generation role in "Queen of Tears," which recorded tvN's highest viewership rating to date.

Although she has received passionate love for every work she appears in, she also confesses that she feels anxious, thinking, "What if they forget me?" when her hiatus becomes long. The episode will reveal Kim Ji-won's unique way of filling the five minutes needed to catch her breath, much like a famous line from a drama, as well as the differences between her 20s and 30s, stories about her soul food, and unexpected hobbies of homebody Kim Ji-won. The episode airs at 8:45 p.m. on the 7th.
