Actor Kim Eung-soo revealed the reason he became a frugal mentor.
On the afternoon of the 20th, during the SBS variety program "Miwoo's" (hereafter "Miwoo"), Kim Jun-ho, Kim Hee-chul, and Choi Jin-hyuk were checked on their spending habits by the frugal mentor Kim Eung-soo.
In that episode, Kim Eung-soo said, "There is a reason I became frugal. In my mid-20s, I finished a theater rehearsal in Daehakro. Yoon Moon-sik leaned in and said, 'Just come to the Chinese restaurant.' When I got there, there were no customers at all. Moon-sik ordered 'one jajangmyeon and one scissors.' I had no money while doing theater. He started cutting the noodles into 5cm pieces. I picked up a chopstick, and Moon-sik hit me with a spoon, saying, 'You son of a b****. Can't you grab three strands at once?'" which made everyone burst into laughter.
He continued, "My salary was 300,000 won. The frugality from those days is still ingrained in me."
"Miwoo" airs every Sunday at 9:05 PM on SBS.
