On this day, PD Lee So-min shared behind-the-scenes stories about the newly assembled staff lineup. PD Lee said, "When we mentioned Kim Yeon-koung, Gian84 reacted by saying, 'She's good but scary.' Seeing her visibly shrink in Gian84's eyes made us want to cast her," jokingly adding that it drew laughter.

He continued, "Season 1 member Jin couldn't join, and Gian84 still hasn't let go of his obsession with superstars. That's why we brought in another superstar, Lee Jun-ho," further sparking laughter.

Regarding Kazuha, he added, "She has a unique charm as the youngest among the three." He noted, "We thought she would be a calm and quiet staff member, but after filming, she turned out to be the one with the most surprises. You'll hear many 'crazy' remarks from a current idol," teasing curiosity.
