'Dad and me' popera singer Lim Hyung-ju drew attention after being appointed the youngest chairman.
On the 18th broadcast of TV CHOSUN 'Dad and me' (hereafter 'Dad and Me'), the story of Jeon Su-gyeong and her 97-year-old father Jeon Han-gyun and the mother-child chemistry of Lim Hyung-ju and his mother Helen Kim were revealed.
Jeon Su-gyeong's father showed a vigorous appearance despite being 97 years old. His habit of getting up early in the morning and being active made it difficult to gauge his age. He had been using a cheap hair dye bought from a discount store for two years, used a cotton swab to dye his eyebrows, and used a worn-out toothbrush to dye his hair, showing a sense of ingenuity.
Jeon Su-gyeong's father, Jeon Han-gyun, visited the office of Korean War veterans. As a vice president there, he chatted with other elders and showed lively behavior, which warmed the hearts of his daughter Jeon Su-gyeong and the other panelists.
Jeon Han-gyun said, "I went to check on my health. I'm at an age where it's any day now. People who were healthy recently, two of them died. So I shake hands to see if they have strength or not," showing his affection for his comrades. As if to prove their health, the elders, whose average age was in their 90s, arm wrestled and bet money. The victory was seized by Jeon Han-gyun.
Jeon Su-gyeong's father said, "Wherever I go, even if there are people in their 60s or 70s, if they bet money they do it. I lifted weights since I was 10. My mother used to say, 'How can little Han-gyun lift weights?' There were signs that I exercised since childhood," expressing pride. To boost her father's spirits, Jeon Su-gyeong visited in person. She neatly prepared holiday gifts.
Jeon Su-gyeong said, "I really wanted to see him so much. My husband is an American. My father-in-law fought in the Korean War. He was a pilot. My father-in-law used to wake up every night shouting because the battles would come to mind," and added, "Wasn't he only about 20 or 21 when he went to the battlefield?" to empathize with the elders.
The chairman said, "The scarier thing is that you can fire tens of thousands of bullets and not die. They just drop bombs on you," and other elder members recalled the time, saying, "How do you aim? You just shoot randomly."
Meanwhile, Lim Hyung-ju was appointed the youngest chairman of the Yongsan Cultural Foundation and held an inauguration ceremony. He said, "My mother has never come to my award ceremonies. I really won first place in many competitions. Even during Yewon School she never came even once. So there were rumors I was an orphan," predicting that his mother Helen Kim would not attend.
In response, Lim Hyung-ju's mother said, "So I plan to go to the inauguration," and attended. Excited like a child, Lim Hyung-ju boasted to his mother about this and that, prompting Han Hye-jin to say, "My daughter does that too. She seems to want recognition. She's a fifth grader."
