...The latest guest … from The Jennifer Hudson Show to go viral for their Spirit Tunnel Walk is Squid Game star Lee Jung-jae. The actor stopped by to talk to the Dreamgirls actress on her talk show in New York. But before he could get to the stage, Jung-jae had to walk through the Spirit Tunnel, where the show staff gave him a very Korean welcome, much to his delight...

The show's official account posted the joyful video of the staff greeting The Acolyte star in Korean. The staff, on both sides of the hallway, said in a sing-song manner, "Annyeonghaseyo Lee Jung-jae," catching the Korean actor by surprise. Annyeonghaseyo is a formal way of saying hello in Korean. He smiled and then soon got into a groove as he danced down the hallway to their chants.”…

PANCOCOJAMS EDITORS NOTE ABOUT HOW ACTOR LEE JUNG-jae CLAPPED DURING HIS JENNIFER HUDSON SHOW SPIRIT TUNNEL
The earliest publication of this pancocojams post included an Addendum about "double clap" (also known as "soul clap"," (Black) "church clap", "Cogic clap), "low country clap, "Charleston clap" and other terms. A number of the comments below refer to this type of clapping on beats 2 and 4 instead of beats 1 and 3.

I decided to include this section as my editorial note instead of as an Addendum to this post.s 

A number of commenters in the discussion thread of the YouTube video short that is showcased in this post wrote that Lee Jung jae started off clapping off-beat (i.e. clapping on 1 and  3, but eventually started clapping on-beat (i.e. clapping on 2and 4). At least one commenter also wrote that toward the end of his Spirit Tunnel actor Lee Jung -jae also was clapping double time (double tempo) and was doing the "raise the roof" celebratory gesture.
