The hip-hop group Epik High delivered hearty laughs together with idol group Seventeen's Dokyeom and Seungkwan.

On the 15th, Epik High released a video on their YouTube channel "EPIKASE" titled "Seungkwan and Dokyeom of Seventeen drained by Epik High's energy and left soul-depleted. ft. Neighborhood Snack Bar".

In the video, Tablo introduced Dokyeom and Seungkwan, saying, "If you made Epik High younger and better-looking, it would be like this." In particular, Tablo brought a Seventeen light stick he had personally bought for his daughter Haru and asked for signatures, revealing, "I'm a Buseoksoon fan." Mithra, being an introvert ("I"), was shy at first but soon acted cute and loosened up, while Tukutz, even though he is a DJ, said he had lost his voice at a concert and held back on talking due to a "vocal cord issue," drawing laughs.

At a favorite snack bar they said they had frequented even before Haru was born, Epik High, Dokyeom, and Seungkwan finished ordering as if they were about to get the entire menu, then boasted about their gym-built muscles. Dokyeom and Seungkwan, feeling Tablo's chest muscles, said, "They're much firmer than expected," and the group compared each other to Captain America and Thor. When it came up that Dokyeom had entered his 30s, they gave a standing ovation and congratulated him, saying, "Welcome to ajusshi, bro."

Epik High coined the unit name "Gwanyeom" for Dokyeom and Seungkwan and preemptively congratulated them on taking No. 1. Tablo in particular predicted they would go beyond topping domestic music charts to reach No. 1 on Billboard, and Seungkwan played along, saying, "To be honest, I did get a feeling," eliciting laughter. Meanwhile, Epik High confessed they find 1 million YouTube views more thrilling than a No. 1 on the music charts, showing signs of YouTube addiction, and the two sides shared concerns, saying Seventeen's "Going Seventeen" has become a benchmark for YouTube content.

After listening to Dokyeom and Seungkwan's new song "Soyagok," Epik High looked back on Seventeen's early debut days. Recalling when Seventeen came to the waiting room to say hello, Epik High said, "We became aware of the team called Seventeen when Vernon came on 'Show Me the Money'." In the meantime, Seungkwan revealed he is close with Kim Jong-wan of Nell, and Tablo showed playful jealousy, saying, "When you're with him, you look overshadowed." In particular, when it was mentioned that Seungkwan seeks out Kim Jong-wan when he's feeling down, Tablo said, "We can make you laugh much more," inviting him to drop by anytime.

With more than ten years since debut, Seventeen have been pondering their relationship with their company and issues like re-signing. In response, Tukutz offered a memorable line that resonated: "You have to show a bit of prickliness so the company doesn't treat you carelessly." Praising Dokyeom and Seungkwan, who are approaching their 30s and heading toward their 15th debut anniversary, Epik High said, "Only 0.1% of people have been as successful and spent their 20s as intensely as you," and wrapped up the content by wishing for "Gwanyeom's" success.

Epik High continues to communicate steadily with fans every week through YouTube content, offering videos on a variety of topics that go beyond music to explore everyday life and relationships.
