Kim Min-kyung listed a chain of worries that began with practical concerns—"Is it growing well? Can I raise it well? Will old parents be okay? What kind of parents should we be?"—and continued, "What about global warming? The environment? Will Korea be a good place to live in the future? The Middle East war? World peace?" evoking both sympathy and laughter from viewers.
