Broadcast personality Sayuri and comedian Kim Kyeong-wook (alter ego Tanaka) once again completed a "family-immersive chemistry."
On the 29th, a video titled "Tanaka got dragged here again. Rental boyfriend goes all-in on parenting after reuniting with Sayuri's son Zen" was released on Sayuri's YouTube channel. In the video, Kim Kyeong-wook steps in as the one-day caregiver for 6-year-old son Zen while Sayuri was away from home and takes on full-fledged parenting.
As soon as he entered the house, Kim Kyeong-wook exclaimed, "I love this house. I really want to live in a house like this," and when the production staff stirred at that, he quickly drew a line, saying, "I'm not saying I'll live here," which provoked laughter.
Afterward, the chemistry between Kim Kyeong-wook and Zen clicked faster than expected. From balloon play to children's songs to elevator play, Zen's wariness quickly melted away at the uncle's unabashed "uncle service." When Sayuri returned home and asked, "Do you like the Gangnam uncle? Or do you like uncle Tanaka?", Zen answered without hesitation, "Uncle Tanaka," delighting Kim Kyeong-wook.
Excited, Kim Kyeong-wook lifted Zen high and gave him a piggyback ride, then even tried giving Sayuri a piggyback ride. When Zen climbed onto Sayuri's shoulders and the "three-person combination" was completed, the production staff said, "This is enough for a family photo," and pushed a romantic angle. Sayuri replied, "I'll print this photo big and put it in a frame," which made the atmosphere even warmer.
Especially near the end of the video, after meeting Sayuri's parents, Sayuri introduced Kim Kyeong-wook as "the person who will become my husband," drawing attention.
Earlier, Sayuri set Kim Kyeong-wook up as a "rental boyfriend" on social media and shared updates from a trip to Hokkaido, continuing a playful worldview from AI boyfriend to rental boyfriend. Responses say this video, too, completed a subtle chemistry between jest and sincerity along that line.
Meanwhile, Sayuri is a single mother who gave birth to her son Zen in 2020 through sperm donation, and she continues to be loved for candidly sharing her daily life on YouTube and social media. Kim Kyeong-wook, too, has broadened his presence by adding the "uncle who can do childcare" character on top of his alter ego Tanaka.
