Funny Return of HaHa’s Hybrid Sam-Is-Soda

A Nostalgic Comeback on ‘Hangout with Yoo’

The hit Korean variety show ‘Hangout with Yoo’ is preparing for a special episode featuring HaHa and the revival of his quirky character, Hybrid Sam-Is-Soda. On July 5th, viewers will be entertained as the cast comes together to form a ‘stock clearance team’ focused on selling merchandise from the iconic show ‘Infinite Challenge.’

#### HaHa’s Roller Coaster Journey

In a recent episode, HaHa discovered that his beloved Hybrid Sam-Is-Soda figurines were among the least sold items, causing both surprise and laughter. Fans of Yoo Jae-suk won’t be surprised to hear that his figurines were completely sold out, which only added to the playful banter when HaHa found himself at the bottom of the sale charts.

Determined to restore his honor, HaHa teams up with Yoo Jae-suk, Joo Woo-jae, and Lee Yi-kyung to boost sales. Although the figures’ performance was lackluster, HaHa’s determination to bring back the character shows his commitment to both his fans and his creations.

#### The Return of Hybrid Sam-Is-Soda

Originating in 2012, the character of Hybrid Sam-Is-Soda is known for its unique features—two hearts and long bangs covering its eyes. HaHa, nostalgic and proud, refers to it as his ‘favorite character.’ Though the character’s time seemed to fade, it returns with updated style and humor.

In true comedic form, HaHa dons the costume once again, ready to battle the odds. Joo Woo-jae humorously notes the character now has a visible sight line, joking about the diminished thickness of the wig. The segment is expected to evoke both laughter and nostalgia, a true testament to the show’s endearing legacy.

Viewers eagerly await to see the hybridized chaos unfold on MBC at 6:30 PM on July 5th. Don’t miss this engaging mix of comedy and nostalgia as HaHa takes to the screen with his vibrant, albeit changed, character.
