Actor Lee Sang-yeop delivered good news on "Hana-buteo Yeol-kkaji" amid his newlywed life.
On the 2nd, the tcast E Channel variety show "Hana-buteo Yeol-kkaji" will feature "cute-gyu" Jang Seongkyu and Lee Sang-yeop visiting viewers with the theme "Must-know 2026 changes that cost you if you don't know, a collection of useful daily life tips!" In particular, this episode will welcome rapper Nucksal, the owner of sharp banter who recently dominated YouTube and is known as "Jabdori Thanos," raising the laughter meter considerably. Upon his appearance, Nucksal immediately aimed a jab at Jang Seongkyu's old-man-style lines, saying, "Seongkyu hyung has always been stale comedy," heating up the atmosphere.
First, "the icon of newlyweds" Lee Sang-yeop delivers good news for prospective couples. It's about the biggest challenge in wedding preparation, the "studio-dress-makeup price list system." When the topic of "sdeume (studio·dress·makeup)" came up, Nucksal exploded with relatable realism, saying, "They charge whatever they want!" In reality, domestic sdeume costs often balloon like a snowball as various additional fees are added to the initial contract amount. If you cancel the contract, you may not only get no refund but also be saddled with penalty fees of several million won. In response, the government finally drew its sword by making it mandatory for wedding halls·wedding preparation agencies to disclose price information. Everything about the changing wedding culture this year and the "studio-dress-makeup price list system" will be revealed in detail on the broadcast.
Next, Jang Seongkyu examines the "new childcare policies" for parents and children. In a reality where young couples are strained by mortgage loans for newlywed homes, it is hard for them to rejoice wholeheartedly at the birth of a new life. Reflecting this, Korea's total fertility rate stood at 0.78 in 2024, at the bottom among OECD countries. Nucksal, who became the father of two children after having his second son in October last year, made a candid remark, saying, "While encouraging childbirth is important, in a world where housing stability is difficult, practical childcare welfare is absolutely necessary." This episode introduces policies that parents will feel, such as expanded child allowances and substitute allowances for parental leave·childcare leave, and supports dads and moms across the country. Lee Sang-yeop also attracted attention by saying he listened "with his ears perked up," switching into prospective dad mode.
The program also focuses on the issue of tougher punishment for road lawbreakers, "drunk·drugged drivers." In November 2025, the "Japanese mother and daughter tragedy" caused by a drunk driving vehicle brought anger and shame to many. In response, the government declared a "war on drunk driving" in 2026 and enacted a law mandating the installation of in-vehicle alcohol measurement devices for repeat drunk drivers. Drugged driving crackdowns will also be significantly strengthened. In 2024, the so-called "Apgujeong Rolls-Royce incident," in which a drugged driver plowed onto a sidewalk and killed a pedestrian, sparked public outrage. The broadcast points out precautions, saying, "Drugged driving is affected not only by narcotics but also by various prescription drugs such as sleeping pills·cold medicine·rhinitis medicine, and even medications for depression·diabetes·hypertension."
In addition, this episode covers key 2026 practical life information that is useful and rewarding to know, including Korea's "AI Framework Act," the "hearty meal" policy that takes care of workers' meals, the "movie·culture arts pass" to upgrade cultural life, the walkers' savior "Everyone's Card," the eco-friendly "new recycling policy," the "animal welfare law" in the era of 15 million pet owners, and "essential checks for overseas travel" for enjoyable trips. It airs Monday, the 2nd, at 8 p.m.
