Comedian Yang Se Hyung revealed he's acquired variety skills through comedian-host Yoo Jae Suk's examples.

The 31-year-old comedian from the tvN sketch comedy show "Comedy Big League" credited the "Nation's MC" Yoo Jae Suk for sealing his auspicious fate in variety skills.

Yang Se Hyung appeared as the guest on JTBC's "Talking Street" with NS Yoon-G and writer Chae Sa Jang.

"I wasn't born with variety skills; rather, they are a result of a lot of hard work and dedication," Soompi quoted Yang Se Hyung as saying on the show slated to air Wednesday.

The comedian, who also co-stars with Yoo Jae Suk and MC HaHa on "Infinity Challenge," shared how he followed Yoo Jae Suk's method which the latter revealed on TV. Yang Se Hyung said he watched variety shows, paused when the MCs asked guests a question and answered the questions himself as if he were the one being asked. This simple method, he said, greatly improved his variety skill.

MC HaHa was apparently impressed that he called Yang Se Hyung a "hardworking genius."

The hardworking genius' role model Yoo Jae Suk appears on all the Big 3 broadcasting networks in the country including MBC's "Infinity Challenge," SBS' "Running Man" and KBS' "Happy Together."

He won his 13th Daesang or Grand Prize in his career at the 2016 MBC Entertainment Awards.

The entertainer's management label FNC Entertainment even warned against those taking advantage of the star's immense popularity when misinformation circulated about the "Running Man Live 2017."

"Yoo Jae Suk has an unavoidable recording schedule, so he has been confirmed to take an early absence," announced FNC Entertainment on their official Facebook page.

"However, false information has been spreading about how Yoo Jae Suk is able to attend the event, causing many fans to become confused. We request for no further damage to be done because of this. Yoo Jae Suk, as well as the company, has not authorized anyone in relation to these fan meetings," stated the agency, according to Soompi.
