Yoo Jae Suk will not leave Family Outing afterall

Loyal man Yoo Jae Suk will be the main MC for Family Outing Season 2. Though it was announced he would be leaving the show, it seems like he can’t give it up.

Season 2 of this hit variety show will start airing in the beginning of 2010. One of the associates of the program said, “It’s only been agreed through words but Yoo Jae Suk will keep being part of the ‘family.’ “

The original Family Outing will come to an end.

The new season will feature new members as well as a new configuration of the show. One thing will stay the same and it’s MC Yoo.

After the recently concluded 2009 SBS Entertainment Awards where he shared the Daesang with Lee Hyori, he said, “I was criticized by many viewers. For whatever reason it was, I must reflect over my actions and learn.”

It looks like Yoo Jae Suk won’t have time for his new baby.

  1. …This is bad :/ A proper family needs both parents to be there. I’m pretty sure Jaesuk is head over heels in money and fortune being the top MC and stuff which is great in supporting his family. However what is his child going to do if he/she wants support from dad? Jaesuk, leave FO2 and go be a good father… honestly, nothing is more important than family. I thought being in FAMILY Outing taught you that :(

  2. yay! :)

  3. OMGyay !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(:
    i hope it doesnt cause problems for the baby<3 though!
    i wonder who the new members are..
    better be good… (:

  4. Its a good thing that he is still in family outing but having to sacrifice his time with his real family is also a problem.. I rather see him happy with his real family..

  5. I know its a happy thing and stuff that Yoo Jaesuk is staying ( cause i LOVE him ), but not having time for his family ; made me sad . I mean like , because of what viewers said to him , he was forced to do it over again . that really must suck . ill rather have him happy with his wife and kids , than do this for us for entertainment .

    ):

  7. oh my gooddd! i was so sad when i found out he was leavinngg.. i hope hyori and kim jong kook and stuff dont leave though.. it should be some old members with a few new members… even though its not gonna be the same im happpy!

  10. ahhhh i got soo happy when the title !! but … new members ?! nooooo

  11. I’m happy to hear that he’s not leaving FO, but I completely respected his decision to leave the show. He is doing a lot of shows, but this one takes away most of his time and energy.

  12. i dont want a new family!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

  13. Yay!! 2010 sounds like it’s going to be amazing!!

  14. Whoooooooooo <3

  15. Aww I want him to spend time with his child. As much as I love FO I don’t mind if there won’t be any more… family comes first MC Yoo!!!

  16. Before this news…its:
    Yoo Jaesuk (&shiyeon;) = leaving
    rest of family = staying

    now its…
    Yoo Jaesuk = staying
    rest of the family = leaving

    (T-T) should I be happy or what?!

  17. love F.O.

  18. YES!!!, he is my favorite MC, i’m glad he is staying…but wait, new family??? NAWH! what about Daesung???? i wanna keep seeing him on tv….meh. xxxxxxx

  19. yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes .. I’ll miss Daesung, though. But at least better than nothing. yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yeseryeseeyeyeyeyey

  20. why was he criticized for being a father and husband to his kid and wife? gee, netizens.
    i checked the first page of comments if they said anything about that. all they cared about was new line up for FO. people let’s not get selfish. take what you’re given; he already sacrificed his QT with his fam.

    BUH NO HYORI AND KOOKJONG, EFF NO!! jks.

  21. sure he will find time.

  22. YAYYYYYYYYY great but…. wait….. NEW FAMILY? So no Hyori or Daesung or Kookjong? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO it won’t be the same without them aishhhh.

  23. yay…family outing with yoo jaesuk…
    but why new family members???
    the original cast were the best!!!
    i want hyori and daesung…yejin, chun hee!!!!

  24. oh good! im glad there will be a new season of FO. and so happy jaesuk will continue to be the mc because i couldnt imagine someone else doing it.
    jaesuk and boom are my favorite mc’s and since boom’s not here right now, jaesuk is the only one i wanna see on FO.
    hopefully the new members go well together as well as the current family :]
    wonder who they will be… maybe a 2PM member… that would be so AWESOME and FUNNY… *continues dreaming*

  25. YAY!

  26. YAY~!!!!!! >333<

  28. ooo, all new members… I wonder what shows Kim Jong Gook and Lee Hyori will take on in the aftermath?

  29. Hyori’s dress is so pretty^^
    Yay! Jaesuk is not leaving the show!!
    But it’s sad that the members will be changed =(

  30. Yeah, I’m so delighted to see this good good news. Mr Jae Suk is actually the spirit of Family Outing. Wait for the next FO :X

  31. happy that he’s staying but new members? the show won’t be the same, they might as welll just stop this show.
    why can’t they just change the format and and keep the members.

  32. yay <3. BUT.. BUT.. WHY CHANGE OF CAST ;~; …

  33. i thought it was gonna end? then why is he still gonna be on there?

  34. im glad hes not leaving,,, xD
    BUT new familyy?
    all the cast were really kewl
    I wish they at least keep Lee Hyori or KJK or maybe
    all of the other members lol ;)

  35. omg i hope they all decide to stay!! since chun hee and yejin are already gone, it wouldn’t be the same family if someone else left

  36. i’m still sad tht they’re changing cast. :[ (gonna my hyori fer shur! )
    but I’M GLAD HE’S STAYING!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

  37. WOOHOO!
    i feel sorry for the baby but..
    I JUST LOVE THIS SHOW :D
    awie new members?
    oh noo!!:(
    where’s Daesung in the picture above anyways?!

  38. Good. Though people criticized him, he’s way to hilarious to not be there for the last episode. I hope he has enough time to take care of his wife though!

  39. not liking the negative conclusion to this post.
    i think YJS is one of the most kind hearted and honest individuals in the entertainment industry. staying on FO will be great IMO, his absence as well as FO’s absence would have left a hole in korean television so i’m really glad he’s decided to return. im’ sure he’ll be able to manage time between his family and the other “family”. YJS fighting!

  40. WOOOPEE!!!
    but changing ppl…???
    hope that Daesung and Lee Hyori are still in it…
    or it wont be as fun anymore…

  41. YAYYY
    sorry new baby
    we need him too!!!!

  42. YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! i hope he still has time for his baby tho
