On August 18, tvN confirmed: Bill Gates, a world-famous businessman and philanthropist, will appear on You Quiz on the Block during a visit to Korea this August.
The exact broadcast date has not been announced, but the episode is expected to be released at the end of August.
Nam Seung Yong, a key executive director at CJ ENM, shared about this surprise appearance: You Quiz on the Block is a program that appreciates all forms of life and conveys human dignity as well as mutual understanding through diverse personal stories.
This is in line with the core belief of the Gates Foundation that all life is equal.
We are honored to welcome Bill Gates, a figure who connects the world through technology and changes the world through charity.
Billionaire Bill Gates, known as a pioneer in the personal computer era, is currently focusing on global health, education, hunger eradication, poverty reduction and climate change initiatives through the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
Recently, co-founder Microsoft pledged to donate 99% of his personal assets - estimated at about $200 billion - through the Gates Fund to society, before closing the fund on December 31, 2025.
He kept only 1% for himself and his three children, including Jennifer, and Gates.
The rare appearance of one of the world's richest billionaires on Korean television has received great attention. The audience is curious about the conversation that will take place between Bill Gates and the "national MC" of Korea, Yoo Jae Suk.
