In 'My Kid's Private Life', Taksoo and Junsu honestly shared the difficulties they face while preparing to become actors.
On Aug. 24, the 35th episode of the ENA Sunday entertainment show 'My Kid's Private Life' (hereafter referred to as 'My Life') captivated viewers with the appearance of actor Lee Jong-hyuk's sons, Taksoo and Junsu, along with their younger sister, Ye-rin, as they took on the challenge of being 'one-day moms'.
On that day, Junsu prepared a special trip for his only brother, Taksoo. The 'Tak-Jun brothers', who dream of becoming actors like their dad, revealed that when Junsu could play, his brother was preparing for entrance exams, leading to a confession that they currently lack time to spend together while Junsu is preparing for his entrance exams. Additionally, Taksoo shared his updates, saying, 'I'm not just playing; I'm also filming movies and performing,' as he diligently chased his dream of becoming an actor.
Junsu introduced their travel destination, saying, 'We are planning to go to a place that feels like Europe,' raising expectations. Their destination was Suncheon. Before entering their accommodation, the two brothers visited the 'Suncheon drama filming location' and recreated a memorable scene from the recently filmed drama 'When Life Gives You Tangerines', showcasing their future actor poise.
The children later shared their struggles about dreaming of becoming actors as the sons of an actor. First, Taksoo revealed, 'I passed an audition on my own, but later people recognized that my dad is Lee Jong-hyuk, and their gazes changed. It felt like my ability was being undermined.' He confessed, 'I hope to be seen as Lee Taksoo, not as Lee Jong-hyuk's son.'
Next, Junsu said, 'I don't think dad acts very well. He says, 'If you can't act better than me, don't act,' but actually, I think I could do much better,' causing an uproar in the studio. He added, 'Dad only looks like a dad, not a senior actor. But he's cute,' expressing affection that made Lee Jong-hyuk smile.
The brothers stopped by a mart before heading to their accommodation to pick up what they needed. However, when Junsu packed mosquito repellent and a lighter, Taksoo sensed something ominous. It turned out that Junsu's real destination was a deserted island, and upon hearing that they would have to pitch a tent and sleep outdoors, Taksoo let out a deep sigh. The scene almost escalated into a physical altercation before the video clip ended, with dad Lee Jong-hyuk expressing curiosity and laughter, saying, 'This is fun.'
Next, the everyday life of Ta-ha, who has grown significantly, and his 7-month-old younger sister Ye-rin was revealed. Ye-rin's growth, with her hair growing and two teeth coming in, and her now being able to crawl surprised everyone.
In the early morning, Ta-ha visited Ye-rin's room, where she was awake alone, and showed his caring side by giving her a kiss and teaching her stretching and tricks. Also, Ta-ha prepared milk for Ye-rin and scored first place in a family affection test, bringing delight.
Feeling confident that he could take good care of Ye-rin, Ta-ha challenged himself to be a 'one-day mom' to give his mom some free time. However, when faced with the challenge of taking the sleeping Ye-rin out of bed, he cleverly asked the camera uncles, 'Do you have a baby, Uncle?' to seek help from experienced uncles.
Ta-ha went through the full course of childcare, from checking the temperature of the baby food, feeding, taking 200-day commemorative photos, to putting Ye-rin down for a nap. He finally prepared Ye-rin's first sensory play using yogurt, but the living room quickly turned into a yogurt mess as Ye-rin escaped from the mat.
Fortunately, the challenge ended when mom returned home. Receiving praise from her, Ta-ha declared, 'Mom, give me some free time,' running out of the house and relishing the feeling of liberation, bringing smiles to everyone. Ta-ha's bright smile, having acted maturely all day, made onlookers smile as well.
Meanwhile, a preview released at the end of the broadcast captured Gun-ho taking on new challenges at Lee Geun-ho's soccer class, raising anticipation. ENA's 'My Kid's Private Life' airs every Sunday at 7:50 p.m.
