How Do You Play? Taking a Deeper Look at Yoo Jae Suk's "Yoo-Niverse" Part. 3

Posted by Yeom-My24 pts Tuesday, January 25, 2022

Welcome back to another week of looking deeper into Yoo Jae Suk's Yoo-niverse! "The Nation's MC" recently took the big prize of the 2021 MBC Entertainment Awards, along with the entire cast of "How Do You Play?"

Not only Yoo Jae Suk himself, but show mates HaHa, Jung Joonha, Lee Mijoo & Shin Bong Sun all took home awards, making it especially even more meaningful for the show members. 

This week, we will take a look at Yoo Jae Suk's alter-egos and his characters inside the "yoo-niverse" that made 2021 really shine bright. While everyone was going through a difficult time from COVID-19, especially in South Korea, the cast provided at-home family entertainment on weekends for the entire country. It was able to create laughter and joy during a time of uncertainty.

Let's take a look and see exactly which alter-egos were played out in 2021. 

Live Together: Canola Yoo

Canola Yoo is from Hollywood and analyzes famous actors in the Korean entertainment industry. Canola Yoo partnered up with Defconn and Kim Jong Min to discover potential entertainment-worthy actors and actresses in 2021. They end up filming the "Live Together 2021" segment together with various singers and actors to discover new potential celebrities worthy of the entertainment industry! 

MSG Wannabe: Yoo Yaho

After the success of the Refund Expedition created by Jimmy Yoo, the show took a break from musical projects; however, they returned in the spring of 2021 with MSG Wannabe. With the K-POP scene missing a vocalist group, Yoo Yaho appeared to create a male vocalist group reminiscent of the early to mid-2000's era. The result? We got two unit groups that produced some great tracks; this fifteen-week project was one of the show's longest projects but definitely well worthwhile.

JMT: Manager Yoo

This alter-ego is the most recent alter-ego with continuing stories and clashing universes from the previous Infinite Challenge. Manager Yoo is the newest manager of the JMT, aka Joy and Music Technology, and he is on his mission to find the best employees for his companies. Manager Yoo directs various interviews and events with potential employees, and the project has been ongoing in between other projects as well. The story continues to develop today in 2022, and it is exciting to see how the story will continue to unfold.

Welcome to 2022, where How Do You Play? stands today. There is a lot of excitement and definitely, some concern with the show as the producer who's been with MBC for the past twenty years has resigned, and a new producer has taken over. It is, however, without a doubt that Yoo Jae Suk and the "How Do You Play? family will continue to provide quality entertainment for us. Let us know what part of "How Do You Play?" you are most excited for in 2022, and let us know what your favorite alter-ego in 2021 was!
