Hong Joo-yeon, the announcer, chose Kim Jin-woong.
On the afternoon of the 30th, during the KBS2 entertainment program 'Sajangnim Gwireun Dangnagwi Gwi', Hong Joo-yeon stated that Kim Jin-woong is better than Jeon Hyun-moo.
On that day’s broadcast, Chef Jeong Ji-sun appeared as the first boss. He had a meal at a restaurant with his husband and staff. Jeong Ji-sun revealed, "I have been worried lately. I have concerns about Woo-hyung, and it's hard to raise him alone," and her husband shyly responded, "We should solve the child issue together."
Her husband expressed joy, saying, "Woo-hyung recognized me while passing by and even asked for an autograph. He said, 'My mom is Jeong Ji-sun,'" and Jeong Ji-sun added, "I once asked Woo-hyung what his dream was, and he said he wanted to be a wealthy unemployed person. I was really upset at that time. What kind of elementary school student dreams of that? So I thought I should help him grow his dreams."
When an employee asked, "With such height, don't you get offers for sports?" Jeong Ji-sun's husband replied, "I even got offers for shot put," showing his affection for their son.
Jeong Ji-sun stated, "Woo-hyung attends math, reading, English, jiu-jitsu, soccer, and hapkido academies. If we want to find what Woo-hyung likes, he needs to attend more academies," showing a firm attitude, while her husband responded, "He needs some time to rest now. He's still at that age," taking a more moderate stance. Jeong Ji-sun then suggested, "Since we have some time, should we go visit Woo-hyung's academy?" and headed there with the staff.
Ji-sun said, "Today is my day off, so I came to drop Woo-hyung off at the academy. Last time, he said his dream was to be a wealthy unemployed person. Don't you regret saying that? To become a wealthy unemployed person, you have to study a lot," and she nagged him, to which her son replied, "Can't you just say 'I see' once?" seeking empathy.
Woo-hyung continued, "I feel sorry for mom working. How I feel is different from how others see me. You shouldn't force it. I am learning math and English. I have no intention of learning Chinese," showing a clear perspective.
Upon arriving at the hapkido and jiu-jitsu academy first, Ji-sun expressed, "What we think as a couple is that manners are more important than studying. This academy has been solidly instilling Woo-hyung's manners since he was young, and we are visiting after a long time," sharing her thoughts.
As sparring time approached, Woo-hyung stepped up as a player. However, he immediately surrendered and started to cry. Jeong Ji-sun commented, "I saw a lot of new sides of Woo-hyung today," sharing her impressions.
The second place they arrived at was the soccer field. Ji-sun encouraged, "Woo-hyung, focus! It's clear that liking something and being good at it are different. But you're doing okay~" and smiled when Woo-hyung showed strength in a physical contest.
Woo-hyung faced off against a 38-year-old coach in a strength contest, demonstrating strength that was hard to believe for a 12-year-old, ultimately winning against the teacher. Woo-hyung admitted, "It's a bit embarrassing because mom is cheering for me. It sounds too loud~," revealing his true feelings in an interview.
After training, the children enjoyed jeon made by Jeong Ji-sun. She asked, "Do you like being with your parents? Do you like or dislike mom working?" and the children firmly replied, "We dislike it!" Woo-hyung then comforted his mom, saying, "I'm used to it, mom," making the panelists feel sorry.
The second boss to appear was announcer Um Ji-in. Kim Jin-woong, who came to work early in the morning, was shocked to find Um Ji-in lying on the sofa. Um Ji-in explained, "This is Jin-woong's first MC. I was worried, so I watched the program every Saturday, and this time I came to provide close coaching," revealing her reason for visiting Jin-woong.
Um Ji-in exclaimed, "What’s with your hair when you go to work? Do you not dry your hair before going?" and added, "Are you starting to look like Jeon Hyun-moo, even with the hair?" When a VCR of Jeon Hyun-moo's chest hair played, Kim Sook exclaimed, "Don't do that. People will think it's me," in shock.
Afterward, Um Ji-in managed Kim Jin-woong's hairstyle, and Jin-woong expressed, "I've been told I resemble Lee Je-hoon, Byun Woo-seok, and Choo Young-woo, so please help me with my makeup," showing his ambition.
Five minutes before the live broadcast, Um Ji-in sat next to Kim Jin-woong, who was waiting in the studio, and nagged, "Look at the prompter!" She even watched the live broadcast from the audience.
Seeing this, Jeon Hyun-moo expressed doubt, saying, "Are you really married? No one has seen your husband," and Um Ji-in replied, "I love KBS," showing her dedication.
After the live broadcast, Um Ji-in evaluated Kim Jin-woong's performance, pointing out areas for improvement. While she was scolding him, Jin-woong's mother and announcer Hong Joo-yeon visited the office. Um Ji-in greeted them politely, saying, "Hello. What brings you here?" and Jin-woong's mother responded, "It seems like you were scolding Jin-woong... If there's something to scold him for, please scold him a lot," showing her charisma.
Then, when the mother said, "Since we're on the topic, let's take a look at Jin-woong's desk," Um Ji-in guided Jin-woong's mother to his desk, saying, "Yes, please take a look."
When asked what she did, Jin-woong's mother revealed, "I was a middle school teacher, responsible for the English subject," sharing her home-cooked meal. Ji-in expressed gratitude, saying, "Thank you for letting us eat together." However, she then instructed, "Jin-woong, the ribs are getting cold; you need to warm them up," while Jin-woong's mother added, "It's fine since it hasn't been long since it was cooked. You can just eat it," trying to stop Ji-in. Eventually, when Jin-woong went to warm up the ribs, his mother hinted to Um Ji-in, "Since Jin-woong is still young, he probably has to do a lot of chores, right?"
When asked what kind of daughter-in-law she wanted, Jin-woong's mother replied, "I hope a kind and good-natured daughter-in-law comes in. I would like her to be cultured, dignified, cheerful, bright, and lively. By the way, how old are you, announcer Joo-yeon?" actively asking, which surprised the panelists. Watching the VCR, Jeon Hyun-moo commented, "Mothers are very proactive at times like this? I think Jin-woong should meet her," unable to take his eyes off.
When Hong Joo-yeon mentioned she was born in 1997, Jin-woong's mother responded, "That's just right~ You looked cheerful on TV, and seeing you in person, you're even prettier and more charming. How is our announcer Joo-yeon at work?" showing interest. When Um Ji-in replied, "She came without makeup and wearing slippers, and I told her to please dress up," Jin-woong's mother retorted, "Isn't that kind of girl better? It seems the team leader doesn't know how to appreciate women," giving Um Ji-in a jab.
Furthermore, Jin-woong's mother asked, "Between Jeon Hyun-moo and Jin-woong, which one is better... Jin-woong is much better, right?" and Joo-yeon wisely answered, "Of course. I will choose Jin-woong." The panelists expressed concern, asking, "Are you okay?" while Jeon Hyun-moo remarked, "I'm too scared of that mother to say anything," pulling back.
Before leaving the office, Jin-woong's mother showed affection, saying to Hong Joo-yeon, "Please come to our house sometime."
'Sajangnim Gwireun Dangnagwi Gwi' airs every Sunday at 4:45 PM on KBS2.
