Congratulations V! Very proud of Kim Taehyung. The Tazza episode with the caramels on RM was hilarious...how he got nearly every caramel that fell from the sky the second time and then shared them by tossing them and the other cast running to try and get them had me lmao that I had tears in my eyes. Congrats to all winners and may you all have the best 2024! 💪
