Shin Seung-ho discussed a job he had before his acting debut on DdeunDdeun's Pinggyego. Koo Kyo-hwan, Kang Ki-young and Shin appeared in the September 19 brunch episode. Yoo Jae-suk's conversation about jobs and life in their twenties brought out an experience beyond an introduction to a film cast.

According to Newsis's review, Shin said he began football around his third or fourth year of elementary school and continued through university. He recalled thinking that the sport might not be the right path for him among so many talented players.

After leaving football, he said he worked in security at a department store for about three months and enjoyed the job. When celebrities attended events, he sometimes received close-protection assignments.

One event he remembered was a Red Velvet fan-signing session. Shin said he had been assigned to provide close protection there.

That experience later connected with his acting career through Irene. He said that after beginning to act, he appeared in a film with her. They starred together in the 2021 film Double Patty. Keeping the event and the film shoot as separate points in time explains the unexpected connection he described.

Shin said footage of his entrance at the fan event had survived and that fans later found it. What is confirmed here is the guest's recollection of an earlier scene being rediscovered.

The episode was a group conversation, with Koo and Kang also present and Yoo leading it. Preview reporting said the actors would discuss filming and their characters in The Red. The subsequent review confirmed that the episode also included experiences outside their screen roles.

Football, department-store work and acting were connected through Yoo's questions. There was a gap between the security assignment and the later meeting as an actor. Following that sequence alongside Shin's own recollection offers a way to understand the discussion.
