Kim Dae-ho's appearance on the show featured him finding his childhood neighborhood for the first time in about 30 years, filled with touching moments.
The episode of MBC's 'Home Alone' that aired on the 30th showcased Kim Dae-ho visiting his old neighborhood where he lived over 30 years ago.
Kim Dae-ho returned to the neighborhood where he lived as a child after about 30 years. Following his memories, he naturally traced his family's footsteps. When seeing the APT. where his parents struggled to win the lottery for the first time, he became emotional, sharing, "My father worked for a textile company and suffered a serious accident, which hurt his health. For the sake of health, the whole family moved to Yangpyeong."
Additionally, Kim Dae-ho met his mentor after 30 years and wept like a child. He said, "Actually, I was only able to meet the teacher for four months. After experiencing my father's situation, we moved to Yangpyeong, and the homeroom teacher at my new school sent a handwritten letter. At the time, I didn't know about the letter until later. Hearing 'There is no such teacher. Make sure to find her later,' I carried that sentiment for the last 30 years."
Kim Dae-ho recalled the emotional moment of reunion, stating, "When the teacher walked toward me, I heard my voice from childhood in my ear. In that brief moment, I became a baby again. I couldn't hold back my tears." He treated his teacher to a meal, and they shared forgotten memories by looking through cherished photographs.
Kim Dae-ho expressed his gratitude in a letter, saying, "Thank you for being a brilliant piece of my life. I will endeavor to become a shining piece of your life as well. Thank you for being my teacher." The teacher responded with a deep hug, conveying appreciation. The members of the rainbow also showed tears, especially Kian84, who cried even more than Kim Dae-ho while covering his face.
Subsequently, Kim Dae-ho shared, "In the past three months, I had a lot of ambition and impatience. There were times when I wasn't myself. It felt like the teacher was listening to my story and acknowledging my struggles." After declaring himself a freelancer, he opened up about the impatience and ambition he felt during difficult times. Jun Hyun-moo comforted him by noting, "It was probably similar to the awkwardness you felt during the three months after you transferred schools." The reunion between Kim Dae-ho and his teacher moved audiences like a scene from a film.
Next week, Park Na-rae is expected to head to Jirisan in search of the best "fish roe" and NCT Do-young will showcase a perfect healing day at his family home, raising anticipation.
