'Couple painters' Park Dae-seong and Jeong Mi-yeon prove the class of 'billionaires in the art world,' saying "money poured in as if heaven poured it down." Added to this is 'millionaire MC' Seo Jang-hoon and Jang Ye-won's first-ever 'croquis model challenge,' bringing explosive laughter and emotion.
The second part of the episode featuring 'master of Korean ink painting' Park Dae-seong and 'master of religious painting' Jeong Mi-yeon will be revealed on EBS' Seo Jang-hoon's Neighbor Millionaire (hereinafter Neighbor Millionaire), airing at 9:55 p.m. on the 22nd. Park Dae-seong is a legendary figure who carved his name in the history of world art with one arm and self-study, and he was praised for returning 830 works to the public after devoting his life to advocating the "sharing of artworks." He also set a record by holding the first solo exhibition by a Korean at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), the largest museum in the U.S. West, followed by a two-month extended display. Beloved by famous collectors including the late Chairman Lee Kun-hee and BTS' RM, he has established himself as an art-world icon.
This week's Neighbor Millionaire reveals the shocking story of Park Dae-seong decisively rejecting a China-originated 'blank check offer.' When he held an exhibition in China, high-ranking Communist Party officials visited him and offered an enormous sum for the purpose of naturalization, but Park Dae-seong confessed he chose to refuse without a moment's hesitation. Asked, "As his wife, wasn't that a pity?" Jeong Mi-yeon said, "We were economically successful in Korea and lacked nothing. I rather told my husband to stop earning so much money," revealing the extraordinary scale of the billionaire couple.
Meanwhile, in this episode, MC Seo Jang-hoon and Jang Ye-won make a surprising transformation into croquis models for the first time in their lives. When Jang Ye-won went up first as the model, Seo Jang-hoon jokingly boasted, "She looks better than in real life," but when it came to his turn, he suddenly switched to '100% nervous' ice mode. Jeong Mi-yeon, who was drawing his face, said, "I'm breaking out in a cold sweat," facing the biggest crisis in her 40-year croquis career, and Seo Jang-hoon drew laughter with a self-deprecating line, "It's because the model is a mess."
