Haechan, taking the lead, announced that fellow member Doyoung was a huge fan of the program, to which Doyoung agreed, saying he watches the show whenever he eats.

Jonathan Thona noted there are numerous shows he could watch and wanted to know what brought Doyoung back to The K-Star Next Door. Doyoung answered that Jonathan was the reason he loved the show so much, making the host shy.

Doyoung elaborated, telling Jonathan Thona he was a “huge fan” of his because he “makes fun of people” while getting made fun of himself.

The response was not what the host had expected, as he hilariously said it wasn’t what he wanted to hear.

Doyoung continued, exclaiming that he prepared himself for potentially being made fun of and didn’t read the script because he knew Jonathan wouldn’t “follow the script anyway.”

Jonathan hilariously disagreed as he and Haechan compared their scripts.

Doyoung’s expectations for the show may not have been what Jonathan Thona wanted to hear, but it was accurate as the members jokingly poked fun at Doyoung for his change of heart regarding the group’s eccentric wardrobe later in the episode.
