Recently, Korean actor Lee Jung Jae was shocked when he guested on the show to promote Squid Game 2. It wasn’t just due to the staff’s excitement but that they spoke Korean in their hype song, as they greeted him with “์๋ ํ์ธ์ (annyeonghaseyo).”

The wholesome clip has gone viral with 24.1M, 50.8M, and 23.6M views on X (formerly Twitter), TikTok, and Instagram, respectively. Netizens are commending Jennifer Hudson and her staff for being inclusive and welcoming toward the Korean actor. Speaking in one’s language is especially meaningful; Nelson Mandela said, “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart.”ย
i genuinely am so obsessed with this video ๐ญ it cost nothing for her and her team to create a chant in his language but they did and his reaction was just so wholesome https://t.co/tejnVNILvJ

What the Jennifer Hudson show staff did here for Squid Games star, Lee Jung-jae is such a beautiful example of welcoming people and also being inclusive in a fun way.
From them using Korean in this tweet, to using it for his Happy Tunnel song, they took the time to not onlyโฆ https://t.co/vz9TQGpHtG
