[08.07.30][news] Junjin: The only difference is whether or not meals are provided



"I guess the only difference is if they feed us or not? Haha"

Junjin, the up-and-coming star of the variety show circuit, had this to say when asked to compare the two shows that he's appearin in, MBC's Infinity Challenge and SBS' Family Outing. After appearing on the 29 July episode of Infinity Challenge, he soon moved on to the recording for Family Outing. It's usually rare for a guest to appear on two competing programmes.

During an interview with Sportskhan, he joked "Meals are provided for Family Outing, but no food is provided at all when we film Infinity Challenge, that's the difference. The objective of Family Outing is to complete the wishlist of the elderly folk living in the villages within 2 days and 1 night, and the great thing about Family Outing is the team actually does something for the elderly viewers of the show."

"Infinity Challenge works in a different way, it has these meaningful projects such as the Beijing Olympics Special. Family Outing has cameras filming us for 24 hours, and there is more time since it's a 2 day/1 night trip. For Infinity Challenge, the filming is more intensive with not much time for rest in between, so it's more physically demanding."

He added, "Although the guests on both shows are different, but each set of cast members all get along very well, that's the key similarity of the shows. The Infinity Challenge cast are all very familiar with each other, and the Family Outing members also take very good care of each other."

Junjin will soon be releasing his repackaged album, and will be appearing on both music and variety programmes.
