Choo Sung Hoon, who confessed that there are no rooms in his house in Tokyo, readily handed over 1 million won to a Japanese student.
In the episode of MBC's entertainment program "Get It Home" aired on the 29th, Choo Sung Hoon and Joo Woo-jae visited the home of a Korean culinary student living in Abeno Ward, Osaka, Japan.
In a quiet alley, they climbed the iron stairs to a rented room located on the second floor. Seeing the unique hallway and structure typical of Japan, Choo Sung Hoon reminisced, saying, "It looks similar to the house I lived in when I was a child." The student living in this house stated, "I came to Japan two years ago to study cooking, and recently I got a job." However, there was no TV in the house. Upon seeing this, Choo Sung Hoon emphasized, "You must definitely have a TV, you need to watch cooking shows and learn about the culture."
Then, Choo Sung Hoon suddenly pulled out 100,000 yen (about 1 million won) in cash from his wallet and handed it over to the student coolly. He also added a supportive message, saying, "There's only 1 million won. Use it to buy a TV and study cooking a lot." Everyone was impressed by the unexpected "cash flex," and the student even shared a photo as proof that they purchased a TV, adding warmth to the moment.
However, Choo Sung Hoon himself noted that there are no rooms in his own house. Even in his ultra-luxurious house in Tokyo worth 5.5 billion won, he humorously remarked that "the bathroom is the hideout" in a personal YouTube video, saying, "I don't have a room." When Joo Woo-jae teased, "Do we have to use the bathroom even if we visit?," Choo Sung Hoon snapped back, saying, "What do you want to say?" showcasing their close chemistry.
Although he is the owner of the "bathroom hideout," Choo Sung Hoon has a heart warmer than anyone else as a "big brother". Internet users responded with comments like, "This is how money should be spent," and "Totally cool big brother."
Meanwhile, on the second day in Osaka, the two headed to a small village called "Fuse" located in the eastern part of Osaka. It is a place with many small factories that have supported Japan's manufacturing industry, bustling as it used to be a terminal station. However, with "Namba" station becoming the terminal, the population is declining. They introduced that the place they visited in the nearby market was a hotel converted from vacant shops, with 22 rooms hidden throughout the market, which amazed everyone.
