The fact that actor Yoo Jae-myung is one year younger than Yoo Jae-suk became a source of laughter in an SBS variety-show preview.
Yoo Jae-suk appeared to have difficulty calling Yoo Jae-myung by name while facing him with his gray-haired style.
What kind of conversation the two will continue in the actual broadcast is information confirmed through the preview before the October 6 broadcast.
3-Line Summary
1. Yoo Jae-myung is one year younger than Yoo Jae-suk.
2. His gray-haired appearance became a source of laughter in the preview.
3. These scenes were released before the October 6 broadcast.
The Gray-Haired Atmosphere That Made the Age Difference Seem Greater Than One Year
At the end of the September 29 broadcast of SBS’s ‘Whenever There’s a Chance,’ a preview for next week was released. The preview showed actors Lee Sun-bin and Yoo Jae-myung appearing and visiting the ‘owner of the gap’ in Cheonan with Yoo Jae-suk and Yoo Yeon-seok.
The most noticeable point in this scene was the age relationship between Yoo Jae-myung and Yoo Jae-suk. According to a Sports Seoul report, Yoo Jae-suk was born in 1972 and Yoo Jae-myung in 1973, making Yoo Jae-myung one year younger. Judging by age alone, Yoo Jae-suk is the older brother, but Yoo Jae-myung’s gray-haired hairstyle gave him a dignified impression, creating an atmosphere as if their relationship had been reversed.
Yoo Jae-suk hesitated toward Yoo Jae-myung, saying, “It’s a little difficult to call you by your name…” The humor in the preview came not from the actual rules of address, but from the mismatch between their one-year age difference and the impressions conveyed on screen. After the information that Yoo Jae-myung was the younger brother was presented first, Yoo Jae-suk’s inability to easily call him by name followed, completing the twist.
Preview of the Next Episode Heading to Cheonan
According to an OSEN report and the SBS preview title, Lee Sun-bin and Yoo Jae-myung are scheduled to spend ‘gap time’ in Chungcheong Province with Yoo Jae-suk and Yoo Yeon-seok. The broadcast is scheduled for October 6. The preview first showed the four traveling and visiting the location.
However, the released material concerns a preview of the next episode. What kind of ‘owner of the gap’ they will meet in Cheonan, and how far the conversation between Yoo Jae-myung and Yoo Jae-suk will continue, cannot be known until the main broadcast content is released. What can currently be confirmed is that Yoo Jae-myung is an actor one year younger than Yoo Jae-suk, and that the production team positioned this contrast as the preview’s key scene.
What was interesting about this preview was that a single physical feature—gray hair—created a stronger impression than their actual ages. Yoo Jae-suk’s brief hesitation was not a scene that definitively assessed Yoo Jae-myung, but rather a device that lightly revealed the fact that the two had an age relationship different from what viewers might expect.
