TV CHOSUN hyperrealistic documentary variety show "Lover of Joseon" 100th episode revealed the delivery scene with singer Lim Jeong-hee, who drew attention for a "natural pregnancy at 44," and her husband, a ballet dancer six years her junior. Also, Kim Tae-won said goodbye to Devin♥Seo-hyun, who was leaving for New York after he prepared a traditional wedding for his daughter.
On the episode of "Lover of Joseon" aired on the 3rd, ballet dancer six years younger Kim Hee-hyun and singer Lim Jeong-hee, who married 23 years ago, revealed the newlywed home scene as the birth approached. Lim Jeong-hee, who gained attention for successfully conceiving naturally at the age of 44, shyly showed off her husband's "morning abs." Also, true to her musician side, she emotionally sang "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" to the baby in her womb, bringing tears to her eyes. Lim Jeong-hee confessed, "I was very anxious until the eighth week of pregnancy," revealing she had already experienced a miscarriage with her first child while newlyweds. She said, "(At that time) I was in the middle of a performance, so even after learning about the miscarriage I couldn't have the surgery and had to go on stage," conveying the sorrow she hid behind her professional demeanor.
At Lim Jeong-hee's home ahead of the delivery, long-time friend of 23 years and Haha's wife, singer Byul, visited. Byul prepared gifts full of the know-how of a "multi-child mom," including premium Korean beef, grilled fish, and nuts. Byul playfully described her first impression of the "young brother-in-law" Kim Hee-hyun: "I had shown a photo of my brother-in-law before and thought, 'Look at this sister's ability...?' That day my stomach hurt at home and I rolled three times. I should have dated and married a younger man over 180cm..." Byul provoked laughter by sharing a marriage fight tip(?) she learned from married life with Haha. She also blessed the baby in the womb, saying, "With sister's singing skills and brother-in-law's proportions and physique...if one is born with dance skills, wouldn't they immediately become the second BTS?"
On the day of delivery, Lim Jeong-hee anxiously said, "How will a cesarean section go..." after being told she had placenta previa, where the cervix was blocked by the placenta. Kim Hee-hyun stayed by his worried wife's side and read a handwritten letter to ease the mood. Waiting for his wife who entered the operating room alone, Kim Hee-hyun's eyes reddened at the sight and robust cry of their safely born son, Hae-im. A week later, the loving scenes of Lim Jeong-hee, recovering at a postpartum care center with her husband, and the "miracle baby" Hae-im warmed hearts.
Meanwhile, Resurrection's Kim Tae-won's traditional wedding prepared personally for his daughter was revealed. His daughter Seo-hyun teared up, saying, "When I was young, my dream was to live with my father. Until we went to the Philippines, I was my dad's best friend." Dressed in full ceremonial attire and riding in the palanquin, Seo-hyun and her "New York son-in-law" Devin were looked upon by Kim Tae-won's wife, who smiled and said, "He still looks like a baby to get married." In front of his daughter, Kim Tae-won began his congratulatory remarks, saying, "This is a precious relationship that cannot be expressed in words." Seo-hyun cried as she interpreted for Devin. To his daughter, Kim Tae-won playfully scolded, "What am I supposed to do if you cry?" but sincerely added, "I think meeting Devin is a blessing. I won't tell you to support us financially, so I hope you live beautifully and happily," moving viewers.
After the traditional wedding ceremony, Kim Tae-won saw Seo-hyun and Devin off at the airport as they returned to New York at dawn, saying their goodbyes. Kim Tae-won found his crying daughter and held her in his arms, and her younger sibling also hugged and comforted her. His wife, Lee Hyun-joo, also had reddened eyes, and the farewell scene quickly became a sea of tears. However, the Kim family set aside the regret of parting and said goodbye with laughter.
