Over the past few days, Li Wei kept asking, "Who's the musical guest?"
He hadn't kept up with pop culture in a while and was worried about falling behind the times.
Just last week, Saturday Night Live had invited BTS as the musical guest—marking the first time the show had featured a K-pop group.
However, Li Wei knew absolutely nothing about them; he didn't even know how many members were in the group.
If he showed up on set like that, it'd be downright embarrassing.
So, in a move to demonstrate the hospitality of his "Eastern land of etiquette," Li Wei wanted to do a bit of homework beforehand. That way, he could make some polite small talk and avoid exposing his ignorance.
But to his dismay, Jost and the gang kept teasing him, refusing to give any hints and mysteriously claiming there'd be surprises and suspense on the day.
This immediately raised Ansen's suspicions, and after persistent grilling, he finally got the answer:
Sara Bareilles.
