On the same day, Yoo held the first live broadcast of "Tonight, This is Yoo Seung-min" through Instagram and YouTube. When a participant asked if he lacked determination, he responded, "I was the opposition lawmaker who fought the hardest during the Kim Dae-jung and Roh Moo-hyun administrations, and it was the same during the ruling party periods of the Lee Myung-bak and Park Geun-hye administrations," adding, "I am someone who has lived with grit even before entering politics."

Yoo also showcased appearances transformed into a dog and a cat using filters during the broadcast.

In this broadcast, Yoo invited Lee Sang-min, a "politician impersonation expert," who engaged in a virtual conversation with People Power Party lawmaker Hong Joon-pyo and Gyeonggi Province Governor Lee Jae-myung.

Yoo plans to hold "Tonight, This is Yoo Seung-min" about twice a week going forward. The next broadcast is scheduled for the 15th at 9 PM.
