'Newlywed' Kim Jong Kook drew attention by expressing envy of Hong Hye-geol's fate of living comfortably while receiving an allowance from his wife.
KBS2 'Problem Child in House' Joo Woo Jae and Kim Jong Kook explode with envy at Hong Hye-geol's life of receiving Ye Esther's "big-hearted support."
Starting today (1st), the weekday evening meal-friend variety show KBS2 'Problem Child in House' (hereafter "Problem Child") airs every Tuesday at 8:30 p.m. The show is a quiz talk show where problem children gather in the attic to become 'brainy' amid the world's endless miscellaneous knowledge and compete over outrageous questions. In episode 327 today, 'the sister who knows supplements' Ye Esther, who went from medical doctor to a CEO with annual sales of 300 billion won, and Korea's leading medical reporter and medical channel host with 2.03 million subscribers Hong Hye-geol appear to join 'Oktaps' Song Eun I, Kim Sook, Kim Jong Kook, Hong Jin Kyung, Yang Se Chan and Joo Woo Jae for a humorous "love and war" talk and quiz solving.
From the opening, Ye Esther vents 33 years of built-up resentment toward her husband Hong Hye-geol, heating up the attic. Joo Woo Jae, who completely empathized with Ye Esther from the start of the recording, said, "It's early, but after listening to the story I can really understand Ms. Ye Esther," and early on sided with Ye Esther, sulking Hong Hye-geol. Moreover, when episode after episode about Hong Hye-geol's mischievous husband was revealed, Joo Woo Jae said, "When senior Yoon Yoo Sun and her husband appeared before, I once turned my back, right? I'm feeling that emotion now," and actually turned his back, while Hong Jin Kyung added, "It's been a while since I've seen Woo Jae's back," prompting more laughter.
Among them, Kim Sook names Hong Hye-geol along with Jang Hang-jun, Lee Sang Soon and Do Kyung Wan as the 'four emperors of husbands blessed with celebrity wives' in the entertainment industry. In response, Hong Hye-geol confidently said, "Among these, I'm definitely number one," surprising everyone. She even added the bold reason, "Those people do something. I really do nothing," turning the attic upside down.
Branded a childish husband after just one hour of recording, Hong Hye-geol reveals an unexpectedly devoted side to try to turn the mood around. Hong Hye-geol said, "If you could die for someone you love, the opportunity itself would be an honor," then abruptly asked Kim Jong Kook, "Jong Kook, could you die for your wife?" drawing attention. Contrary to Hong Hye-geol's expectations, Kim Jong Kook answered without a moment's hesitation, "Of course! My muscles were made to take arrows instead of my wife," showing a newlywed's affectionate side and disappointing Hong Hye-geol.
Meanwhile, when the scale of Ye Esther, a CEO with annual sales of 300 billion won, and her extraordinary 'big-hearted support' were revealed, the 'Problem Child' members' view of Hong Hye-geol changed 180 degrees. In particular, Kim Jong Kook could not hide his envy, saying, "If my wife set up a gym for me, how great would it be to live exercising?" Even Joo Woo Jae, who had turned his back on Hong Hye-geol's childish actions earlier, exclaimed, "Wow, I'm so jealous. Director Jang Hang-jun was weak in comparison," then abruptly said, "I'm going to write a heroic biography of Hong Hye-geol," turning the set into a sea of laughter.
Viewers are curious to see in the full broadcast what Ye Esther's 'big-hearted support' is that even made newlywed Kim Jong Kook envious and instantly turned Joo Woo Jae into being in 'praise mode' for Hong Hye-geol.
Meanwhile, Kim Jong Kook announced a surprise marriage to a non-celebrity wife in September last year and later held a small, secret wedding. Afterward, he postponed the honeymoon and focused on his broadcasting schedule. <
