Broadcaster Yoo Jae-suk revealed the story behind his sudden cancellation of a recording session due to recent cold symptoms.

On the 10th, a video titled "The Deduction Game is Pinggyego" was uploaded to the YouTube channel 'Tteun Tteun'. Song Eun-i, Go Kyung-pyo, and Bibi appeared as guests.

That day, Song Eun-i shared, regarding recent news that Yoo Jae-suk canceled a broadcast recording on the same day due to cold symptoms, "I heard Jae-suk was sick and saw the article, so I sent him a text message, and he replied, 'I'm perfectly fine.' He said he had heard too much talk about it."

Yoo Jae-suk explained, "I was truly shocked. I usually go to recordings no matter what, but let me briefly explain: my throat hurt terribly in the morning. I also had a fever. I thought, 'What if it's the coronavirus or the flu?'" He continued, "If we were just filming with our members like usual, we might have been able to postpone the recording until the afternoon, but since we had to meet general applicants and move around here and there, I wasn't confident about it. Even after going to the hospital. So, unavoidably, (I canceled the recording)."

He then added, "Thankfully, so many people contacted me and expressed their concern, but it wasn't that serious (illness). So I was also very flustered. And after going in the morning to get an injection, fortunately, I felt much better by the afternoon." He said, "So I called back again and said, 'Could we maybe do the recording again…?' and (the production team) replied, 'Everyone has already gone home,' so (I couldn't do the recording)."

In response, Song Eun-i laughed, saying, "I thought the National Mother had collapsed." Yoo Jae-suk said, "When I said it was 'the first time in 30-something years,' everyone thought something big had happened. I am so sorry for causing worry unintentionally."

He stated, "Was it the coronavirus? That thought suddenly crossed my mind and I got scared. If it hadn't been that, I would have managed somehow." He continued, laughing, "By around 12 o'clock, I felt perfectly fine. So I was also embarrassed. If I had gone out anywhere that day, people who saw the article might have thought, 'Huh? He's going out?' or 'Is it really okay for him to go out?' So when I was about to go exercise, (Na) Kyung-eun said, 'Oppa, if you go out now, it will spread.'"

Yoo Jae-suk greeted the audience by saying, "In any case, I am sorry for causing unnecessary worry and concern. I am perfectly fine."

On the 22nd of last month, while preparing to film 'Tteumman Namyen,' near Jongno in Seoul, Yoo Jae-suk unavoidably canceled the recording due to temporary high fever symptoms caused by a cold and flu. Regarding this, Yoo Jae-suk's agency Antenna stated at the time, "He is focusing on recovery, and we have asked for understanding from those involved while coordinating a rescheduling date."

It was reported that Yoo Jae-suk canceling a recording on the same day was the first time since his debut in the entertainment industry through the 1st KBS University Gag Festival in 1991, prompting many members of the public to express their concern. Fortunately, Yoo Jae-suk returned to his schedule by proceeding with the recording for tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block' the very next day, on the 23rd of last month, and resumed filming for 'Tteumman Namyen,' on the 6th.
