[OSEN=Choi Ijeong reporter, 'Stars' Top Recipe at Fun-Staurant' Kim Kang-woo announced the birth of the new national husband.
On the 15th, KBS 2TV's 'Stars' Top Recipe at Fun-Staurant' (hereinafter 'Fun-Staurant') featured the first appearance of NEW chef Kim Kang-woo, who sparked great interest simply by the news of his joining. The 23-year veteran actor Kim Kang-woo, who has received much love for his intense charisma and acting skills, had a daily life that was 180 degrees different from his character in works. It was a time when the viewers were deeply captivated by the charm of romantic pure chef Kim Kang-woo, who traversed between intensity and sweetness.
On this day, Kim Kang-woo, who appeared in the 'Fun-Staurant' studio, perfectly styled an alluring black shirt, drawing admiration. He exuded a mature man's refined sexiness. Amidst the flowing admiration, Kim Kang-woo, seemingly embarrassed, humorously responded, 'Should I button it up?' Despite appearing somewhat nervous, his actions in response to MC Boom's request to make a heart symbol ('ang') heightened expectations for his daily life.
What followed revealed the contrast of Kim Kang-woo's daily life. Seemingly unfamiliar with variety shows, he showed signs of confusion, counting the number of cameras and obliviously asked, 'Are we filming now?' Then, as soon as he received a bouquet of flowers gifted by the production team, he happily confessed, 'I've come to like flowers since going through menopause,' creating laughter.
Although Kim Kang-woo has a stunning visual appearance, he is actually 47 years old and has been married for 15 years. Married to Ms. Han Mu-young, who is also famous for being the sister of actress Han Hye-jin, Kim Kang-woo has two sons in middle school and elementary school. He humorously remarked, 'Both my sons are entering puberty,' adding, 'I'm going to win. Let me see puberty challenge menopause,' which elicited laughter. Additionally, Kim Kang-woo surprised everyone by revealing that he has maintained the same weight for 28 years. When the production team did an unexpected weight check, Kim Kang-woo, while saying, 'It's not because I'm anxious,' excused himself to go to the bathroom, only to return wearing red socks for his weight-checking routine, bringing more laughs.
The revealed weight was 75 kg, just as Kim Kang-woo had said. Furthermore, he flaunted his full head of hair, stating, 'I haven't had a transplant yet,' which earned envy from the camera crew of similar age. He also unveiled his self-care secret, the '10-year deletion juice,' which he has been drinking daily for 10 years.
At this time, Kim Kang-woo's affectionate husband side caught attention. He shared that for the past 10 years, he has been making juice every morning to share with his wife. He also explained reasons for quitting smoking after getting married and for cooking for his wife and children when at home. Kim Kang-woo noted, 'I don't ask my wife to prepare meals. She didn't marry me just to cook for me,' leaving behind a memorable quote of a loving husband.
Additionally, Kim Kang-woo revealed that after his first child was born, he paused his acting career for a year to focus entirely on parenting. He stated, 'I was also a first-time dad, and my wife was a first-time mom. I couldn't go out,' and shared that since then, he has been keeping a parenting diary for 15 years. The diary even includes cheesy lines like 'Don't hurt my girl.' Kim Kang-woo said, 'My life's goal is to ensure my wife and children feel no sense of insecurity.' He truly embodies the phrase 'the birth of the new national husband.'
Moreover, Kim Kang-woo showcased his cooking skills that traverse Korean, Western, and Chinese cuisines. On this day, Kim Kang-woo hurriedly began cooking before his two sons returned home. His choices included health-conscious multigrain rice, apple pork, low-sodium walnut soybean paste passed down from his wife, spicy cucumber soy bean paste bites, and spicy noodle salad. His adept knife skills with a Chinese knife and sense of using spicy bean paste effectively radiated the aura of a 'true master.' He also awakened his hidden playful instincts, providing great amusement while playfully negotiating with the production team.
On this day, Kim Kang-woo showed his daily life as a caring husband and a reliable father to his two sons. He also shared recipes that encompass both taste and health, his culinary skills, his charming appeal that earned him the nickname '47 SEXY', and all the self-care secrets that allowed him to live life as a hot guy. The charm of Kim Kang-woo as a person exploded dramatically. The reactions suggest that the casting power of 'Fun-Staurant' shone once again. There is curiosity and expectation for what kind of activities Kim Kang-woo will showcase through 'Fun-Staurant'.
