A South Korean game show captured Jack Black at his very goofiest

Thanks to a famous Chris Farley sketch set in Japan, Saturday Night Live fans know the hazards inherent in appearing on a game show produced in a foreign country, especially when one doesn’t speak the language. But actor and musician Jack Black, currently starring in Kung Fu Panda 3, fares considerably better on South Korea’s lighthearted Infinity Challenge, an imported series now available for streaming at DramaFever, with new episodes added each Thursday. The program’s vague description sounds innocuous enough:
A “real variety show,” hosts Yoo Jae Suk, Park Myung Soo, Jung Jun Ha, Ha Ha, Noh Hong Chul, Jung Hyung Don, and Gil Seong Joon undergo several challenges every week. From arriving early on set to composing original songs, the hosts scramble their way to the top and win, proving that Infinity Challenge is 3-D: dirty, dangerous, and difficult. Let the games begin!
Apparently, the show’s format allows for celebrity interlopers as well. Clad in a bright blue tracksuit and red-and-white-striped knee socks, Black is more than willing to participate in the Infinity Challenge shenanigans, a gauntlet that includes stuffing his mouth with as many marshmallows as humanly possible. He aces that one, easily besting his small-mouthed challenger.
