On September 22nd, entertainment insiders revealed that Noh Hong Chul will be joining the upcoming variety show 'Empty Stomachs' (unofficial translation). The program will involve participants who will voluntarily sign up to withstand their own empty stomach for 24 hours straight.

In order to "get a true taste" of food, these participants will be under surveillance via camera for a number of reasons -- 'health recuperation (detox)', 'dieting', and 'mere social experiment' being a few. Basically, the participants will be tested whether they can give up hours of food, in order to taste a real good taste of food.

Noh Hong Chul's departure after the end of 'Infinity Challenge' has brought many to look forward to this new variety show. 'Empty Stomachs' will begin after the close of 'Dunia: Into the New World', with the pilot episode set to air on September 30th at 6:45 PM KST.
