- Joonyoung saying sometimes he imagines himself building tunnels when he drives through them
- Defconn getting his beloved beard and mustache shaved off
- Joonyoung specifically requesting his background music be Slash's "November Rain" guitar solo for his punishment
- Suzy being completely non-plussed by Joonyoung's sudden serenade (see below)

Judging from the first three episodes I feel like Season 3 has a lot of potential. I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised, but I give most of the credit to the new main PD since he's been around since Season 1 days, and knows what's up. The new cast is pretty funny together Joonyoung is super 4D and Defconn is just a fun guy. They have some bonding to do, but they're only a few filmings in. Ratings have really improved, and hopefully they stay steady at the #1 spot!

I hope it does well.

Date: 2014-01-05 10:43 pm (UTC)My favorite part.
1. Wake up ritual, Taehyun and Jongmin being cruel for new members.
2. Everyone ignoring Suzy. :D I hope there will be no more waking up guests. I like when everyone rush to do morning mission.
3. Everyone want to be on Taehyun team :D :D :D
4. Defconn mustache shaved off (and probably every moment with Wonpal team )
5. Restaurant mission and Ryu Geunji
It's better than 2nd season.

And Juhyeok's bitterness when people don't recognize him xD

Date: 2014-01-06 12:36 am (UTC)I didn't watch ep 1&2 but from their conversation, Wonpal been around since then??? It is hilarious.
Joonyoung is funny esp. during lunch mission where he started feeding the girls. And Geunji water ad-lib.

Date: 2014-01-06 05:56 am (UTC)Somehow, all the new members stood out except for Kim Junho. Kim Joohyuk was just hilarious and not awkward at all. When he yelled at Defconn to stop introducing him to the kids, I love the season already. And I can't remember the last time I feel excited watching a race on 1N2D until the Before Sunset Race. Racing against the winter sunset? Genius. Kudos to the music and editing too.
One of my favourite highlights: when they have to earn 500,000 won at the gas station and Joonyoung hit the motherload with the big truck.

Date: 2014-01-06 06:36 am (UTC)1N2D makes me really happy, and I'm so glad to see the show gaining attention and fans again. Every episode just keeps getting better! I'm loving Kim Joohyuk and Defconn~ I love how Defconn treats Joohyuk, he teases him all the time but he always put in a good word for the mat-hyung, laughs at his words and jokes with him. It's pretty obvious that Def is trying to help Joohyuk to become more comfortable on the show. I love this pair already!
LOL at Joohyuk not recognising Suzy! Initially I thought he was just tired and confused but he's really clueless about idols (he doesn't know who Hyuna is). I find it quite endearing though. He guested on Happy Together a few years ago and he talked about how he stays at home and watches TV all day long when he's not working.

Date: 2014-01-06 12:22 pm (UTC)Saw S3's pilot episode with no expectations and boy it did surprise me. I had doubts as to how Taehyun and Jongmin will takeover, them being not the main MC of the previous seasons. So far, they're doing fine and luckily the new "recruits" are armed with wacky personalities. and yes!!! skinny PD Yu from season 1 is back. LMAO he's harsher and fiercer now!
Joonyoung is so fun to watch! He would've totally been a part of the "Seop Seop Dang/Helpless brothers" with Seunggi, Jiwon and MC Mong.
The challenges in the Before Sunset Race (ep3) cracked me up bigtime. My favorite has got to be Defconn's trip to the barber! I won't spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen it but damn I was laughing so hard like Taehyun did.
Hopefully the episodes will get better in time! I miss this show a lot.
