Park Seo-jin showed tears at the photo of his two deceased brothers restored by AI.
On the afternoon of the 19th, KBS2's 'Salrimnam Season 2' (hereinafter 'Salrimnam') continued the housewarming of Park Seo-jin's family from last week.
In this episode, Park Seo-jin appeared as the first Salrimnam. Last week, Baek Ji-young, Eun Ji-won, Ji Sang-ryeol, and Lee Min-woo visited Samcheok, where Park Seo-jin's family lives, to celebrate the show's ratings exceeding 7.5%.
While going to the market with Park Seo-jin's sister Park Hyo-jung, Baek Ji-young lamented, "Seo-jin showed me around properly, but I couldn't eat anything." In response, Hyo-jung said, "I will take you to a local restaurant that doesn't even appear on the show. This is just an appetizer. If food comes in suddenly, it surprises the stomach," making Baek Ji-young happy.
Upon arriving at the tteokbokki restaurant, Baek Ji-young immediately put the tteok in her mouth as soon as it was served, exclaiming, "The seasoning is all soaked into the tteok," and devoured it. Watching the VCR, Baek Ji-young remarked, "The fish cake is incredibly big. When it goes into my mouth, it slaps the inside of my mouth," drooling once again.
Finally tasting the toast she had been wanting, Baek Ji-young said, "Why is this so delicious? It's not stimulating at all," stuffing her mouth with food.
After the snack shop, they visited a seafood market and indulged in sea cucumber and sea cucumber roe. Baek Ji-young praised, "As soon as I put in the sea cucumber roe, the scent of the sea lingered in my mouth until I got home."
At the same time, Eun Ji-won and Ji Sang-ryeol boarded Seo-jin's father's boat. Ji-won expressed concern, saying, "Seo-jin worries a lot," while Sang-ryeol added, "How hard is it to be exposed to the sea breeze?" The father shared, "I've been working on boats for about 50 years. I bought a boat for 30 million won and went to Heuksando alone, but my hand got caught in the net. I lost all my front teeth and had a finger amputated. After 24 hours, a strange smell started coming from it. So I had to cut off my finger. I have nine and a half fingers now," trying to smile through the pain.
Watching the VCR, Eun Ji-won expressed sympathy, saying, "After the finger amputation, it was so painful that he used to put his finger in his mouth."
Seo-jin's father continued, "When Seo-jin and Hyo-jung are not around, I sometimes cry alone. I miss my two deceased sons. Every time that happens, I go out to sea so I don't have to think about it."
He advised, "You should treat the living well. What good is it to put apples on the ritual table after death? You should buy an apple for them while they are alive. If you don't express affection, they won't know what you're doing," giving advice to the stoic Eun Ji-won. Eun Ji-won recalled, "My father was also from Gyeongsang-do, and he was very patriarchal when he was alive, so he never shared a meal with us."
Looking at the camera, Eun Ji-won bravely sent a video message, saying, "I love my mother more than anyone... I hope she is always healthy." Ji-won admitted, "I might be more stoic than Seo-jin," acknowledging his own demeanor.
When all the members gathered in one place, dinner began. The visual of the table was so impressive that Baek Ji-young and the other panelists exclaimed, "I really didn't expect this much," and hurriedly filled their stomachs.
Afterward, a housewarming gift presentation took place. Upon seeing the gift from Baek Ji-young, Seo-jin's father’s expression hardened. It turned out to be a frame with pictures of his two sons who had passed away. Both the father and Seo-jin wiped their tears, and Seo-jin said, "I want to tell my brothers that I succeeded and came to a good house," swallowing his tears.
As the second Salrimnam, Kim Sang-hyuk from Click-B appeared. On this day, a fortune teller visited Kim Sang-hyuk's house. The fortune teller said, "Sang-hyuk was born with the energy to run on paved roads, and he ran fast. There are always rumors surrounding Sang-hyuk. He has rumors related to relationships and misunderstandings, as well as business-related rumors. It's better to stay stable and calm," offering advice.
He continued, "However, he is someone who can't live without talking. At first glance, he looks fine, but his upper lip is thin, so he lacks endurance and can't go all the way. His face and nose are long, so he has a talkative appearance," adding humor to the situation.
The fortune teller added, "He was born with strong desires. There are risky ventures aimed at quick wealth. His mother has even greater desires. She has the energy to try to earn something. Sang-hyuk has no woman to love. He must pass the age of 49," he added.
After examining the room, the fortune teller was left speechless, saying, "And this house feels very closed off. There are many dolls, and it feels chaotic. The energy is dispersed, and vitality doesn't gather." He remarked, "Are you okay living like this? I've never seen a house like this. It's a complete mess. It feels like a cramped room, a room with no answers," struggling to find words.
After looking at the display case, the fortune teller said, "If it stays like this, you won't meet a woman. If you get married, you'll have to take this with you, right? Where do you even start to fix this... If you move in like this, it will look almost the same?" he said, lost in thought.
‘Salrimnam’ airs every Saturday at 9:15 PM.
