[Sports Today Reporter Kim Tae-hyung] Lee Seong-mi, Kim Soo-yong, Jo Hye-ryeon and Shin Bong-sun say they’ve noticed changes in Heo Kyung-hwan.

SBS will air on the 15th an episode of \”My Little Old Boy\” that captures a laughter-filled reunion between Heo Kyung-hwan—who has hit the peak of his career 20 years after his debut—and several veteran comedians.

In the episode, Heo meets comedy legends Lee Seong-mi, Kim Soo-yong, Jo Hye-ryeon and Shin Bong-sun. They waste no time poking fun at him, dropping lines like, \”You’ve been so hyped lately,\” and \”You’re not the same as before,\” leaving Heo visibly flustered.

The group says they’ve formed an informal \”Heo Kyung-hwan Anti-Overexcitement Committee\” to help the newly trending Heo stay grounded—a declaration that has everyone in stitches. Shin Bong-sun jokes that Heo’s catchphrase amounts to nationwide gaslighting, then launches an impromptu catchphrase battle with Heo and Jo Hye-ryeon, turning the studio into a sea of laughter.

True to their status as Korea’s top comedians, each shares the secret behind a long-running career. Jo Hye-ryeon, the Tae Bo icon; Lee Seong-mi, known for her spicy talk; and Shin Bong-sun, famed for dramatic reinventions, all weigh in. Kim Soo-yong—recently talked about as a comeback icon—recounts a terrifying moment late last year when he suddenly collapsed from an acute myocardial infarction, underwent emergency surgery and later woke up.

Kim describes the horrific scene that greeted him when he miraculously regained consciousness, a revelation that leaves viewers wondering what exactly happened.

Meanwhile, a subtle romantic spark flared between Yoo Min-sang—who joined the taping late after finishing another schedule—and Shin Bong-sun, drawing attention from everyone present. The two had previously chosen each other as a final match on a dating segment for Shin’s personal YouTube channel, even sparking marriage rumors at one point.

Word has it that Yoo Min-sang dropped an unprecedented bombshell during the taping that stunned everyone on set. Viewers will have to tune in to find out what he said when this reunion of legendary comedians airs.
