Actor and singer No Min-woo revealed his unique social spa life.
Today (23) on MBC 'Home Alone! Holmes' (directed by Jeong Da-hi, Nam You Joung, Heo Ja-yoon, Kim Seong-nyeon, hereafter 'Holmes'), they head out to inspect the 'bathhouse road' that has recently become a hot spot again among young generations.
On this day's broadcast, the three same-age stars born in 1986 — singer and actor No Min-woo, comedian Kwak Beom, and Joo Woo-jae — join together. The three, who went through a period of stagnation for a while, will look into bathhouses that have recently received renewed attention mainly from Generation Z, and homes of people who take bathing seriously, to examine the current state of bathing culture.
With the 'social spa' culture recently trending, No Min-woo surprised everyone by saying, "I have meetings at the bathhouse." He went on to explain his reason, saying, "A bathhouse is a space where you can see traces of people's lives without any pretense." When he revealed that he always has bathhouse meetings with his band members, Joo Woo-jae reacted with surprise, saying it felt like the movie "Inside Men." In response, Kwak Beom, true to his 'impressionist vending machine' reputation, performed an impression of Lee Kyung-young, provoking laughter.
The three visit a bathhouse in Anam-dong, Seongbuk District, that has been operating for 55 years. They check everything from the bathhouse boiler room, which is not easily accessible, to the owner's living quarters on the roof. In addition, interest grows as secrets related to the bathhouse chimney are revealed.
To look into the 'bare face of the bathing business,' they interview the barber and the body washer who work at the bathhouse. In particular, the body washer's monthly income is disclosed, bringing unexpected surprise. When it is mentioned that customers come from far away to find skilled body washers, Kim Sook adds that there are 'pressure point aunties' even in the women's sauna, saying that if the touch is right, people will follow them anywhere, adding to the empathy.
Next, as the body washer uses long experience to determine the 'real man' among the three, attention focuses on who will claim the 'real man' title.
