"With an annual income of 4 billion won" Jun Hyun-moo expressed envy after seeing popera maestro Lim Hyung-joo's 40 billion won mansion.

TV CHOSUN's "Dad and I season 3" will for the first time reveal the warm, human side of the world-renowned popera maestro Lim Hyung-joo, who had been shrouded in mystery.

Returning on Jan. 14 at 10 p.m., TV CHOSUN's "Dad and I season 3" deals with the stories of parents and children who are closer than anyone in the world but who sometimes feel farther apart than anyone. In addition, popera tenor Lim Hyung-joo, who has won the nation's love, has been confirmed to appear with his agency CEO and the mother who, with a Sparta-style approach, raised her son to become a global star, drawing attention.

With interest mounting about what stories Lim Hyung-joo and his mother will tell, Lim Hyung-joo's daily life, which had been shrouded in mystery, was also previewed. When Lim Hyung-joo's special "400-pyeong mansion" was revealed, Jun Hyun-moo could not hide his envy, saying, "It's nicer than our studio," and looked forward to a luxurious lifestyle. But Lim Hyung-joo appeared in a humble way, having not even washed his hair and pushing his hair back with a headband. Contrary to expectations of a meticulous world star, Lim Hyung-joo was also seen sleeping late until 1 p.m. In the end, Lim Hyung-joo was scolded by his mother, and Jun Hyun-moo strongly empathized, saying, "A mother's nagging is universal."

Meanwhile, Lim Hyung-joo revealed a real-world habit of insisting on physical cards and using a card-style wallet because he feels online payments are insecure. Lim Hyung-joo is the first Korean musician to sign with one of the world's four major record labels, the youngest male classical singer to perform at Carnegie Hall, the youngest recipient of a U.S. Presidential award from the Obama administration, and the holder of numerous records such as the presidential citation from the Republic of Korea.

Though he is a "legend" who rose to global stardom with unparalleled records and seems like he would lead a luxurious life, Lim Hyung-joo's everyday life—full of human warmth befitting an analog enthusiast and scolded by his mother to "lose weight"—can be seen on TV CHOSUN's "Dad and I season 3," returning on Wednesday, Jan. 14 at 10 p.m.
