Big Bang Daesung showed off his 'professional caregiver' side.
On the morning of the 21st, SBS Plus' 'The macho man's way of travel' held an online showcase on YouTube. The online showcase featured Choo Sung Hoon, Kim Jong Kook, Daesung and PD Kim Jinho, who took questions and answers.
'The macho man's way of travel' is a bromance travelogue featuring Korea's representative macho men Choo Sung Hoon and Kim Jong Kook, and the somewhat middle-aged(?) youngest member Daesung. It will capture the real travelogue of extremely P male creatures who enjoy following their instincts.
That day Daesung said, "From the time I joined I participated from the position of a caregiver. It was very fun, and the two macho men's styles are completely different. Even though they are both macho men, their styles differ, so watching that I learned about life from the program," and, "a macho man's travel is faithful to instinct. And since there weren't any particular instructions given, I just did things naturally as they were," conveying the 'macho man's' travel method.
When the question, "Are you in a position like Lee Seo-jin from 'Grandpas over Flowers'?" came up, Kim Jong Kook bristled and laughed, "It's not that much! It's just that the hyung looks too much like a grandpa."
Daesung explained his role, saying, "In the pre-interview I thought I would mediate to some extent and considered how to mediate between the hyungs since their tendencies are different, so I thought about it a lot before going, but when we got there we matched so well and the three of us had similar tastes and preferences that there wasn't as much need to mediate as I thought. There were times when they bickered here and there and the younger brother's role was needed. I chipped in at those moments."
Then Kim Jong Kook asked, "It wasn't up to Seojin hyung's position, was it?", and Daesung explained, "It wasn't that much. 'Grandpas over Flowers' are truly seniors and you have to carry all their luggage and do things for them?g but the hyungs take care of their coffee in the morning by themselves," Kim Jong Kook said, "basically Daesung has always taken good care of hyungs and noonas since 'Family Outing.' If there's a younger sibling he would take care of them too; in any case he is a very considerate type and is very good at it. He is an indispensable important presence on our team."
Daesung drew a line, saying, "Isn't it only episode 4? Monitor the broadcast well and the next person can study by watching me," but Choo Sung Hoon and Kim Jong Kook emphasized, "There is no one like you."
When asked about his efforts as a professional caregiver, Daesung said, "I tried to understand the hyungs' needs. Little off comments and such. Even when the cameras were off I tried to figure out what was needed so they could film comfortably in advance. Usually when the cameras are on the staff adjust things well so there's not much discomfort, but off-camera times are when the hyungs get very tired. If you cheer them on then interesting talk can come out of that. I think I was conscious of that and kept the balance."
Kim Jong Kook praised him, saying, "His consideration is exceptional," and PD Kim Jinho also offered wholehearted praise, saying, "Throughout the briefing people said Daesung really takes good care of the hyungs and we can't do without him." In the atmosphere trying to hold him back, Daesung responded, "Are you harsh here?" which added to the laughter.
Meanwhile, 'The macho man's way of travel' premieres tonight (the 21st) at 8:40 p.m.
