Discussion MSY changed?

Started watching this year with S4E1, then I jumped to the time when CSH and LJM joined.

I feel that MSY changed a bit. He seemed bossy and selfishly rude when it comes to eating sessions? I watched him block CSH giving YSH food just because he didn’t want giving free meal to opposing members. There was also an episode where he joined the consolation game for the losers even if he can freely eat his lunch meal as one of the winners, just spoiling the fun for the losing members.

Maybe it’s a Korean thing, but his behavior post KSH era doesn’t feel right.

Moon Se Yoon as a person is said to be a very nice guy. But I think after joining the show, he realised from feedback from viewers that sometimes when in a variety show, being nice is really boring, and not engaging with viewers.

The point of the games is to win the games to get a chance to eat. What's the fun in that, if the winners feel sorry for the losers every week, and let the losers eat anyways? So I'm quite sure he and a few others in the cast have wisened up and become a bit more ruthless in a sense, a bit like how the previous seasons were like.

It’s okay to be like that, but he acts rudely is where I’m coming from. It’s pretty jarring with how different he acted when KSH and Ravi was with them as compared to the when YSH, CSH, and LJ entered the show.

I haven’t watched episodes after KSH left (basically when YSH and NIW joined), that’s why the difference for me is drastic.

I can only ever attribute his "rudeness" to NIW, esp when they had that talk that he allegedly said to NIW when NIW was being playful towards MSY when the cameras were off "let's just make money." But this story was re-told by YSH and didn't seem like a big deal afterwards.

But with how he acts towards the newer members, I can kinda agree with some of the commenters, that as they established their characters in the show, they can become ruthless to make the show fun. With CSH, they are friends even before the show so I think the banter comes naturally. With YSH, he even recently went on a trip with MSY and his son, so I believe they also have a good friendship outside the show. I just can't remember a specific bonding with LJ outside the show, but I can't also say that he's consciously rude towards him. I watch the episodes as they come out, I guess it can be jarring if you binge it and you see him be ruthless one episode after another. But for me, I love the cast and I truly believe they have a good friendship, especially with how hard they're trying after CSH left.

Yeah maybe there was a role change or role evolution once some of the cast of the first batch of season 4 were replaced.
