On the December 17 broadcast of tvN’s You Quiz on the Block, Kim Da-mi joined hosts Yoo Jae-suk and Jo Se-ho, where she shared personal stories from her student years that quickly resonated with the nation’s most beloved MC.

When asked what she heard most often from her parents growing up, Kim Da-mi laughed and replied that they constantly told her to “stop sleeping so much.” She explained that once she fell asleep, “12 hours was the minimum.”

Concerned hosts asked whether it wasn’t difficult to sleep that much, especially during exam periods. Kim Da-mi clarified that she did study when it mattered, but admitted, “That’s why I was always tired especially in my senior year of high school.”

Yoo Jae-suk then jokingly asked about her grades, to which Kim Da-mi honestly answered that she was “about average.” Yoo Jae-suk immediately quipped, “If you slept 12 hours and still did that well, that’s impressive. Wanting top-tier grades on top of that would be greedy.” His remark drew laughter from both the studio and viewers.

Kim Da-mi went on to explain that she simply loved her bed, even studying while lying down. “I don’t know why, but standing upright was just hard for me,” she said, prompting Yoo Jae-suk to burst out laughing.

Jo Se-ho chimed in, pointing out how similar Kim Da-mi and Yoo Jae-suk were, saying they both only “switch on” when working and collapse the moment they get home. Yoo Jae-suk, who had earlier bonded with Kim Da-mi over their shared ISFP personality type, nodded in agreement and confessed, “I’m basically lying down all the time too.”

The lighthearted exchange showcased Kim Da-mi’s relatable charm and Yoo Jae-suk’s effortless empathy, making the episode another memorable moment for fans of You Quiz on the Block.
