In 'How Do You Play?', Ha Ha flaunted his affluent background.
The episode aired on the 29th, featuring the segment 'My Friend's Table.' In this episode, Yoo Jae-suk and Ha Ha were shown meeting Im Woo-il.
On this day, Im Woo-il invited Yoo Jae-suk and Ha Ha to an 'ocean view cafe' in Incheon. At the spacious cafe, which had a sea view and gaming consoles, the 'How Do You Play?' participants showcased their gaming skills. In response, Ha Ha jokingly said, "I had to pay to play the game." Yoo Jae-suk teased, "Aren't you broke?"
A flustered Ha Ha said, "No, my dad was called here by former lawmaker Kim Jong-pil." This claim of prestige emerged naturally when in a tight spot.
In fact, Ha Ha is known for boasting an affluent upbringing, having been born in Germany. He previously revealed on a variety program that his father was invited by former lawmaker Kim Jong-pil to return to Korea as a director of a heavy industry company and served as a vice president of a subsidiary. It was after this that Ha Ha, whose real name is Ha Dong-hoon, created 'Dong-hoon Industries.'
Not only is his father affluent, but Ha Ha's aunt is said to be a 'land rich' individual in the Cheongdam-dong area of Gangnam, Seoul, while another aunt is a graduate of Harvard University's engineering school. Yoo Jae-suk light-heartedly mocked Ha Ha's continuous bragging about his father since the MBC program 'Infinite Challenge,' asking, "Why do you keep talking about your dad?"
