'Kim Jeong-nan' actress Kim Jeong-nan found an unexpected joy after farming.
On the 22nd, Kim Jeong-nan's YouTube channel released a video titled "Should I move to the countryside?! Actress Kim Jeong-nan planting bunching onions on a 200-pyeong field and preparing for kimchi-making." She was farming bunching onions and green onions on a friend's roughly 200-pyeong field, and there was a reason for that.
Kim Jeong-nan said, "Today I came to plant bunching onions. Didn't this household say they make 500 kimchi heads for kimjang? I want to join in and get some kimchi too. There's no such thing as free, so I'm going to plant some bunching onions myself," smiling brightly.
Kim Jeong-nan and her friend, Director Jeong, began making snack-time coffee. The refreshing iced coffee, made with as many as six packets of instant mix coffee, looked sweet just to see. Kim Jeong-nan laughed, "I put in six packets of instant mix coffee. This is poison. Caffeine addiction," then headed to the field. The field owner was there. The owner showed them how to plant seedlings and then left abruptly.
Kim Jeong-nan had to plant 300 bunching onion seedlings and 1,000 green onion seedlings with her friend that day. The friend said, "You know you have to plant these without thinking," while already looking for the snack, but Kim Jeong-nan said, "Hey, I should come do farming when I'm stressed," and, "Working without thinking is real meditation," showing how absorbed she was.
Having handled insects calmly when they appeared, Kim Jeong-nan, after finishing planting the bunching onions, enjoyed instant coffee and toast with her friend. Kim Jeong-nan showed signs of back pain, saying, "I understand why you need a chair that cushions your butt. If you plant 1,000, you'll need one."
Kim Jeong-nan said of the day's labor, "Compared to the last time I came, this is truly heaven. Back then I thought I was going to die from the heat," sounding rather pleased. The friend added, "I drank coffee on the rooftop with Mi-seon unni. When I said Kim Jeong-nan made tteok, I immediately called Park Mi-seon and told her to come," revealing that Park Mi-seon also joined, piquing curiosity. Kim Jeong-nan bragged about her tteok, saying, "I made tteok and my mother tried it and said it was so delicious. Mi-seon unni and they came and ate it all."
Returning to farm work, they focused on planting green onions. The friend asked, "Aren't you going to say Kim Jeong-nan will buy land here?" and Kim Jeong-nan replied, "I'm going to move to the countryside later, aren't I?" adding, "This is the first time I've bent over and worked like this for three hours straight," showing surprise.
When everything was finished, a sweet dinner like honey was laid out. At the table where samgyeopsal sizzled in hot oil, sweet ssamjang and tender pumpkin leaf wraps were exquisite, and Kim Jeong-nan wore a happy smile.
On top of that, she was even given a silver button. The production team said, "It's been six months since we started our YouTube." Kim Jeong-nan said, "My name is engraved in the world. What's next?" and marveled, "'You have reached 100,000 subscribers; YouTube presents the Silver Creator Awards. Congratulations' Wow!"
She said, "While doing YouTube, my friends have helped me a lot and been a great strength. Please cheer for Director Jeong as well," and, "I will continue without losing my original intentions," offering thanks.
