[Asia Economy Reporter Kang Hyesoo] On the afternoon of the 27th, MBC's 'How Do You Play?' featured the Ssaksseuri members preparing a cover of Deux's 'In the Summer.'

The Ssaksseuri members conducted a second blind test for the Ssaksseuri title track in the previous broadcast. Among them, they decided to record 'Play That Summer' and 'Back Here at the Beach.'

Earlier, it was revealed that Lee Hyori was the lyricist for 'Back Here at the Beach,' which attracted attention. In this episode, it was also revealed that the composer of the song was none other than Lee Sangsoon, surprising the members.

Additionally, the three visited fashion stylist Han Hye-yeon for styling suggestions. Hwang Kwanghee also joined, adding to the excitement. Han Hye-yeon first took out a flashy blouson with a dragon pattern for Bi, satisfying him. Then, she dressed Yoo Jae-suk and Bi in two different colored jumpsuits, each accented with bucket hats.

When told to wear the hat pulled down low, Yoo Jae-suk grumbled, "Then people won't know it's me," eventually taking off the hat and wearing a headband with glasses instead. However, Bi looked even cooler with the bucket hat pulled down low as styled by Han Hye-yeon, drawing attention due to his sharp jawline.

After trying various stylings, Ssaksseuri and Hwang Kwanghee had a photo session. Meanwhile, Lee Hyori's uncontrollable dance moves caused Yoo Jae-suk to complain. Especially with Bi and Lee Hyori vying for the center, Yoo Jae-suk and Hwang Kwanghee found themselves with no place to stand, creating laughter.

Next, Ssaksseuri began recording the cover of Deux's 'In the Summer' with Park Moonchi. After Bi sang a verse, Park Moonchi requested, "Take out some of the R&B vibe, and lighten the air a bit." Bi responded, "That's what Sasu (=Park Jin-young) taught me." However, he finished the song exactly as Park Moonchi requested.

Bi also tried doubling in the middle. Seeing this, Lee Hyori, Yoo Jae-suk, and Hwang Kwanghee praised him, saying, "He does it well." Park Moonchi was also satisfied, saying, "I got the sample I wanted," impressed by Bi's ad-libbing.

Park Moonchi asked Yoo Jae-suk to "take out some Yusansul." After finishing, Yoo Jae-suk said, "Doesn't it sound a bit cheap?" to which Park Moonchi reassured him, "That feeling is good."

When it was Hwang Kwanghee's turn, he whispered something to Park Moonchi and entered the recording room. It turned out he was asking for autotune. Hearing Hwang Kwanghee's autotuned voice, Lee Hyori said, "I want to hear your real voice. Try it once," and Hwang Kwanghee sang again with his natural voice. However, that voice strangely sounded like it had autotune, and Lee Hyori marveled, "It seems autotune is applied automatically."

Ssaksseuri then moved locations to shoot the music video for 'In the Summer.' Yoo Jae-suk pointed to the shirt he was wearing and thanked Bi, saying, "Thanks for the clothes gift." Lee Hyori then teased Bi, saying, "Is this a safari part-timer concept?" which made Bi sulk.

When the topic of Lee Hyori's briefly sung 'Downtown Baby' reaching number one on the music charts last week came up, Lee Hyori said, "My previous albums never reached number one. It seems the evaluation of me is amazing." At this, Bi suggested, "How about having 'Lee Hyori's Chart' once a week?" but Lee Hyori opposed, saying, "You can't do it intentionally. It works when you do something accidentally and without bias."

Then Lee Hyori touched her hair and suddenly said, "I tried the trendy hair dye these days, but it didn't come out well. I'm thinking of shaving my head." Yoo Jae-suk suggested, "How about shaving it like Chae Rina?" but Lee Hyori replied, "I can't because I don't have the back of my head." Then, all Ssaksseuri members discovered that the back of their heads were like cliffs, and they happily noted this unexpected commonality.

At that moment, Hwang Kwanghee appeared. Bi expressed his hurt feelings, saying, "I gave him the number and told him to call, but he still hasn't texted." Hwang Kwanghee then joked, "Despite how I look, I'm quite clingy. Not charming," which made everyone laugh.

Yoo Jae-suk revealed that Lee Hyori knows a lot about 90s music videos. Lee Hyori explained, "There should be a white screen so bright it almost blows away your facial features, a circle appearing in the pupils, convex lenses that make legs look longer, and in summer, there must be a yacht." Then Ssaksseuri and Hwang Kwanghee practiced dancing to create the music video for the 'In the Summer' cover.

MBC's entertainment program 'How Do You Play?' airs every Saturday at 6:30 PM.
