Several clips went viral among fans from the latest segment of Salty Brother Shin Dong-yeop, most of them featuring Ji Chang-wook and Lim Ji-yeon's playful remarks and exchanges. One instance going viral is of the latter stating that she often asks people if she is pretty. That prompted an instant hilarious reply from Ji Chang-wook, saying,

"Come on, stop it! I'm annoyed now. Do it in moderation! How long will it go on like this?"

After which Lim Ji-yeon asked once more between fits of laughter if she was pretty, to which the 37-year-old responded with a "Yes, you're pretty." The comically aggressive response prompted much laughter around the set.

When this line of conversation became a running gag in the show, Lim Ji-yeon asked how Ji Chang-wook felt being this handsome, and the latter stated she must be tired of asking the same question herself.

Shin Dong-yeop too seemed to appreciate their bond, as he stated,

"You guys are really close."

In the course of the episode, the team even started playing a game where the K-drama actor might not know much about the person, but according to Shin Dong-yeop, Lim Ji-yeon seemed to know who was being talked about. This led to Ji Chang-wook taking the name of actor Lee Do-hyun and Lim Ji-yeon mock bursting into anger, amidst cheers and laughter.

"This is why I always tie my shoelaces tightly."

The episode's second MC instantly responded with,

"Oh, are you trying to run away?"

Yet another moment showcases the team talking about Ji Chang-wook's character kissing rapper-actor BIBI's character for the drama The Worst of Evil (2023). When it was revealed that this was the latter's first time doing so on-screen, Lim Ji-yeon wanted to know BIBI's reaction to the scene.

Ji Chang-wook explained that it is a bit more complicated than that, as it makes him nervous when such scenes come up. He further said it was simply work to him, just like made-up action scenes on camera where people act during fighting. When Lim Ji-yeon asked once more how BIBI felt about it, he humorously responded,

"How should I know? Should I go and ask, Hyeong-so (BIBI), did you like it?"

While everyone on set laughed heartily, The Glory's actor casually said,

"You should ask."

Meanwhile, another clip that amused fans was when Lim Ji-yeon mistakenly thought she did a scene with Ji Chang-wook and began describing it. The actor wondered what scene she was referring to, as she eventually realized that there were no such scenes with him.
