Six years after remarrying, broadcaster Kim Gu Ra reveals an unexpected experienced caregiver side while video-calling his adorable youngest daughter.
For Lee Kyung-kyu and Ahn Jung-hwan, prospective grandfathers with zero childcare level on tvN STORY's "Childcare Intern," their close friends Kim Gu Ra and Kim Nam-il are urgently dispatched. But the arrival of those thought to be reliable reinforcements instead shakes the interns' mental state and is expected to deliver unpredictable, twist-filled fun.
On Thursday evening at 8 p.m. on the 16th, the second episode of tvN STORY's "Childcare Intern" will continue the tearful struggle of Lee Kyung-kyu and Ahn Jung-hwan as they face full-scale practical childcare. To assist those plunged into childcare hell, Kim Gu Ra and Kim Nam-il step in, raising expectations.
First, Kim Nam-il, a younger soccer colleague, joins Ahn Jung-hwan's team as childcare support. In the previous episode, Ahn Jung-hwan struggled with a child's "I don't want to" phase when self and independence grow stronger. To change the atmosphere, Kim Nam-il demonstrates the assist skills of a national team defender. But the result flows in an unexpected direction. Upon his arrival, Kim Nam-il immediately wins the baby's heart with boundless energy through activities like "tiger ride" and "airplane play."
The child who had repeatedly said "No!" and rejected Ahn Jung-hwan suddenly turns into a "good child," eating heartily from Kim Nam-il's hands and even doing the previously avoided toothbrushing, leaving Ahn Jung-hwan shocked. Eventually, the hurt feeling explodes and Ahn Jung-hwan displays cute jealousy, producing laughter. Curiosity grows about what childcare skills Kim Nam-il used to turn the "field hero" Ahn Jung-hwan into the "embodiment of jealousy."
Meanwhile, variety show godfather Lee Kyung-kyu receives help from Kim Gu Ra, a father of a late-born daughter. But Kim Gu Ra sharply calls out Lee Kyung-kyu's clumsy childcare with facts and unleashes a "nagging bombardment." Saying "You really don't know, hyung," he nitpicks Lee Kyung-kyu's childcare methods at every turn and repeatedly cries out "hyung!" as he enters an endless nagging orbit.
To close the distance with the child, Kim Gu Ra also attempts a video call with his own daughter. Through a call with his six-year-old daughter, who is one year older than the child, he tries to naturally loosen the atmosphere. Kim Gu Ra subtly highlights his childcare experience as an "active dad," and with Lee Kyung-kyu's reaction as he watches, the scene is expected to bring smiles.
Exhausted, Lee Kyung-kyu finally explodes at Kim Gu Ra, who even controls the speed at which he feeds the baby. Lee Kyung-kyu bursts out the pent-up anger, saying, "Why am I doing things your way? You're the one who came to help!" The friendship of the two variety show giants collapsing before childcare and their chaotic childcare chemistry heighten viewers' expectations.
With the urgent assistance of Kim Gu Ra and Kim Nam-il, questions arise as to whether interns Lee Kyung-kyu and Ahn Jung-hwan can successfully finish their first day and clock out.
