[Asia Economy Reporter Kang Hyesoo] On the afternoon of the 13th, the MBC show 'Hangout with Yoo' aired a scene where Yoo Jae-suk (Yoo Ddragon), Lee Hyori (Linda G), and Rain (Biryong) listened to the debut song of Ssak3.

That day, Ssak3 took an MBTI personality test ahead of their mixed-gender group debut. Rain was ESFP, described as a 'free-spirited entertainer,' Lee Hyori was ENFP, a 'lively activist,' and Yoo Jae-suk was ISFP, a 'curious artist.'

Yoo Jae-suk's analysis included "tends to procrastinate, indecisive, likes people but dislikes meeting them, yet enjoys hanging out when he does." Rain's result was "attention-seeking, loves being noticed, and no one at school or work doesn't know me," which everyone agreed with. Lee Hyori's was "positive, optimistic, often an insider, unafraid of new relationships, surprisingly introverted and independent."

The three members nodded at their analyses, but the personality compatibility results showed that Yoo Jae-suk's ISFPX and Lee Hyori's ENFP, as well as Rain's ESFPX and Lee Hyori's ENFP, were both labeled 'catastrophic,' causing laughter.

The Ssak3 members also held a rap audition at a composer's request. When Rain started singing Solid's 'My Only Friend' and even sang the vocal parts, Lee Hyori and Yoo Jae-suk pointed out, "You're greedy," and "If you don't break your solo habits, you can't be in a group."

Next, Ssak3 listened to demo versions of the first candidate songs for their debut track through a blind test. 'Cool Han Sai' was inspired by Lee Hyori and Rain's past comment that "we could have dated." Lee Hyori remarked while listening, "The melody and lyrics almost made me cry."

However, the song that all three were satisfied with was 'ORE ORE.' Throughout listening, they gave positive reactions like "The hook is great," and "It has a house vibe." Especially, they praised it as "a perfect blend of old and new" and "the best song so far."

After the blind test, Ssak3 agreed to each create their preferred style of song and make a final decision. Yoo Jae-suk visited Muzie to update him and confessed, "I want to compose with your help." Muzie enthusiastically agreed, saying, "I really want to do it."

Yoo Jae-suk said, "Summer dance music is decided within the first 3 seconds of the opening. It needs a powerful intro," and asked Muzie to show him that opening right away. Muzie immediately presented several sounds, saying, "This is an actual beat used in the 90s," and Yoo Jae-suk fired up, asking, "Will it be dangdadadang or not?"

Lee Hyori went to Code Kunst, the hottest producer who loves 90s music. She openly expressed her solo ambitions, saying, "Linda G has to stand out. It has to be amazing."

Rain worked with Lee Hyun-seung, who composed Davichi's '8282' and EXO's 'Call Me Baby,' breaking the 'Producing' and 'Brut Kit Down' prohibitions among the 20 rules of the 'Simum 20,' raising curiosity about the results.

MBC's entertainment program 'Hangout with Yoo' airs every Saturday at 6:30 PM.
