[Sportschosun Ahn So-yoon] Singer Park Seo-jin showed perfect chemistry after meeting the housekeeping master.
On the KBS2 program 'Mr. House Husband Season 2' (hereinafter 'House Husband') aired on the 13th, Park Seo-jin and trot veteran Kim Yong-im displayed an unusual rapport. As they traded visits to each other's homes, Park Seo-jin led the show with his trademark honesty and witty remarks.
The episode began in Park Seo-jin's cluttered home. While his younger sibling Park Hyo-jung was cleaning up alone, Park Seo-jin tried to protect his belongings, saying, "I use all of these." When asked why he had not put away the exercise equipment, he drew laughter by replying, "It feels like I lose weight just by buying it." It turned out that he had moved the exercise gear into the living room after turning the workout room into a Minhwa room for a new hobby he recently started. Park Seo-jin's reluctance to let go of his things resonated with viewers from the start.
A surprise guest then arrived at Park Seo-jin's home. It was Kim Yong-im, a trot legend with more than 40 years in the industry. After looking around the house, Kim Yong-im said she would teach him what housekeeping really means and began a full-fledged lesson. The back-and-forth between the two quickly became a highlight. Kim Yong-im stressed the importance of decluttering and organizing, while Park Seo-jin kept trying to hold on to his belongings, creating a lively clash.
After they finished dinner with kimchi Kim Yong-im had made herself, they moved on to inspecting the refrigerator. The tightly packed fridge contained food that had long passed its expiration date, shocking everyone on set. Kim Yong-im even warned, "At this rate, you'll get kicked off 'House Husband.'"
In the end, Kim Yong-im invited Park Seo-jin and his sibling to her home. After a brief moment of awe at the impressive scale of the place, Park Seo-jin countered by looking at the shoes piled up at the entrance and the dressing room, saying, "Shouldn't this be cleared out?" The twist came when it was revealed that Kim Yong-im, who had emphasized the importance of letting go, also owned a considerable number of items. It was then disclosed that the true housekeeping expert was actually her husband, adding another layer of humor.
Kim Yong-im then welcomed the siblings with a carefully prepared 19-dish spread. During the meal, the two revealed their long-standing relationship. When Park Hyo-jung asked, "If you had to choose between Lim Young-woong and Park Seo-jin, who would you pick?" Kim Yong-im answered without hesitation, choosing Park Seo-jin.
Meanwhile, KBS2's 'House Husband' airs every Saturday at 9:20 p.m.
