In the past, Ryu Jin's two sons, who gained great popularity after appearing on 'Dad, Where Are We Going?', have now become the figures responsible for their father's YouTube view counts.
Actor Ryu Jin confesses the loneliness he feels as the head of the household while revealing how he has come to use AI as a new conversational companion. He also shares the reality of running a YouTube channel that relies on his two sons, who resemble BTS, and even shows his use of new slang, bringing laughs.
MBC's Radio Star, airing at 10:30 p.m. on the 22nd (planned by Chey Yoon-chung / directed by Yoon Hye-jin, Hwang Yoon-sang, Byun Da-hee), is presented as a special titled "Papa GO! All Daddy Project" featuring Ryu Jin, Ki Tae-young, Lucky and Song Ha-bin.
Ryu Jin honestly opens up on the show about the loneliness he feels as the head of the household. He said, "I had no one to talk to, so I spoke with an AI," and recounted how, ahead of his Radio Star appearance, he even received appearance-related advice from the AI.
Having steadily worked through dramas, Ryu Jin is a familiar face to viewers with his stable acting and neat image. In particular, his distinct facial features and gentle impression have consistently led to mentions of his image as a "handsome actor," and he gained popularity when he appeared with his eldest son Im Chan-hyung on Dad! Where Are We Going?
Ryu Jin talks about the reality of running a YouTube channel that leaves him no choice but to rely on his two sons. He said that view counts vary greatly depending on whether his two sons appear, and he revealed the resulting "comment equity competition" and the process of negotiating appearance fees.
Ryu Jin also shares that he awkwardly uses various new slang terms such as saksak kimchi, neujoh, and sexy food. His natural use of the slang and distinctive delivery drew reactions from the studio, and he added a down-to-earth episode by revealing how he once felt pressure during a script reading.
