Singer Park Seojin will start the 10,000-won-a-day challenge "Ten thousand won of happiness."
'Hobby overspender' Park Seojin takes on an ultra-saving mission.
On Saturday the 8th at 10:35 p.m., KBS 2TV's Mr. House Husband season 2 (hereafter Mr. House Husband) will feature Park Seojin, who has generously invested in his hobbies, presenting the nostalgic program "Ten thousand won of happiness" in a 2026 version with his younger sister Hyojung.
That day Hyojung finds a pile of delivery boxes filling the front of the apartment entrance and points out Park Seojin's unusual spending habits. Recently obsessed with painting minhwa, Park Seojin reveals a hobby room crammed with expensive paper and hundreds of brushes and paints, surprising everyone. When it is revealed that the amount poured into the hobby room so far amounts to about 20 million won, even the studio cannot hide its astonishment.
Watching this, Hyojung says, "Oppa needs to cut back on spending first," and proposes a spending habit improvement project. The two then take on the "16,500-won happiness" challenge reflecting 2026 prices, deciding to spend the day covering food and transportation within the limited amount. Unlike Hyojung, who came prepared from the start with a packed lunch and even water, Park Seojin leaves home empty-handed and faces unexpected obstacles one after another, beginning a frugal day.
Heading to KBS for a schedule, Park Seojin faces unexpected expenses and his wallet begins to show its limits. Desperate, Park Seojin turns to earning money himself, applying the painting skills he honed while learning minhwa to draw instant caricatures in the KBS comedians' room. Saying, "If you give me money, I'll draw anyone," Park Seojin sets out to sell to the comedians, bringing laughs with his unexpectedly good drawing skills.
But in the comedians' room where he went to earn money, an unexpected rosy atmosphere is detected. Earlier naming a comedian as his ideal type, Park Seojin creates a strange mood by making an on-the-spot choice of his ideal type at the scene. Viewers are left wondering who will be the person to capture the heart of 32-year-old lifelong single Park Seojin.
Earlier, Park Seojin lavishly invested a large sum of 100 million won in beauty and grooming, including facial plastic surgery, to escape an appearance complex. Now, however, he has embarked on a living expenses diet, and viewers are eager to see what kind of frugal life he will show on 10,000 won a day.
