Appearing on the program, Lee Ho-geon drew attention by revealing his history of becoming a Korean juggling champion at the age of 16. The cast members expressed surprise at his statement that he began juggling during his third year of middle school and rose to the position of champion in just one year. He emphasized that he can juggle anything that can be held in his hands, noting that even objects without handles, such as water bottles, are possible to juggle.

In practice, Lee Ho-geon demonstrated high-difficulty techniques using ordinary water bottles that lack handles. As he floated objects in the air and juggled them continuously, tension in the studio rose each time the number of objects increased. He delivered a circus-like performance by showcasing juggling techniques that went beyond five objects to a maximum of seven.

From fire performances to combining singing with juggling

The juggling techniques were not limited to simply spinning objects. As a performance utilizing fire followed, the cast members felt tense at the flames approaching before their eyes while being unable to hide their fascination. The sight of him handling four objects simultaneously during the fire-based juggling increased the immersion of the stage.

In particular, the core of this stage lay in the requirement to perform juggling and singing simultaneously. Lee Ho-geon explained that "juggling is important regarding sense of rhythm, so if the beat is off or does not match the song, the technique fails," revealing that considerable practice was required to perfectly achieve both at once. The process of continuing the juggling in rhythm while singing took on the character of a comprehensive art form beyond a simple demonstration of skill.

During the scoring process following the stage, Lee Ho-geon was recognized for his skill by recording a high score. He concluded his performance by sharing his wishes that, if he wins the prize money of 10 million won, he would like to visit Everland or purchase a car.
