Park Bo Gum expressed his sincere feelings toward "Bogum Magical."
On the 29th, an online press conference was held for the tvN variety show "Bogum Magical." The event was attended by producer Son Su-jeong, Park Bo Gum, Lee Sang Yi, and Kwak Dong- yeon.
"Bogum Magical" is a program that follows Park Bo Gum, who holds a barber national certification, his close friend Lee Sang Yi, and Kwak Dong- yeon as they run a special barbershop in a remote rural village that trims both hair and hearts.
Park Bo Gum will serve as the hair stylist, Lee Sang Yi will be in charge of customer service, and Kwak Dong- yeon will take on cooking duties. In particular, the three men prepared "Bogum Magical" for about a year, participating in selecting the show's starting location, remodeling and interior design, which has raised further expectations.
Park Bo Gum joked, "I am in charge of hair on the program. My weapon and charm, my skill is like a sprout, but my warmth and dedication are like a thousand-year-old tree."
He added, "I take a bit more time with each customer. At regular shops, one person can take up to an hour, and if the procedure is long it ends within an hour and a half, but I take two hours per person. It's because I help with hair with so much warmth and dedication," he said with a laugh.
On preparations for shaving, he said, "For this program, before this I mainly had a barber's license for men, but I wanted to help with women's cuts too, so I studied for a cosmetologist license as well."
He also said, "The hardest thing is tending to the hair of elderly people who have perms. Because the hair is all bent, if I cut it wrong the head can wave, so it was difficult."
Kwak Dong- yeon testified, "He cuts well, but he didn't give up. He practiced until late at night. And quite a few of the production staff got their hair cut by Bogum hyung. I also had my hair cut. To meet the needs of different age groups and genders, he really didn't give up and worked hard and studied, and that's really impressive."
