Translation

On MBC‘s ‘I Live Alone’, Go Joon finally discovers the cause(?) of his insomnia that he couldn’t seem to break.

On the episode of MBC‘s ‘I Live Alone’ (directed by Heo Hang, Kang Ji-hee, Park Soo-bin, Lee Kyung-eun, and Moon Ki-young) that airs on the 29th, Go Joon will be shown discovering the cause of his insomnia.

Go Joon visits an ENT clinic to check on the progress of his recent snoring symptoms. He had previously visited the hospital because of cold symptoms, but was diagnosed with ‘sinusitis’. Go Joon gets his throat and nose checked and receives treatment.

At this time, Go Joon hears a clue(?) about the cause of his insomnia from the doctor. Surprised by this, he exclaims “Eureka!”, saying “That’s when I felt like I had some hope.” Indeed, attention is focused on whether he will be able to find a way to overcome his insomnia that he has been unable to overcome for 10 years.



Meanwhile, Go Joon visits his favorite regular restaurant and has a hearty dinner. Having shocked people with his small food intake due to intermittent fasting for over 15 years, this time he orders a whole tableful of dishes, from boiled Korean beef to Pyongyang bibim naengmyeon, Pyongyang mul naengmyeon, and jjim mandu, inhaling them all.

He also comes home and starts washing and eating a lot of lettuce before going to bed. His appearance, which is known to be good for a good night‘s sleep, is reverent as he diligently eats one sheet at a time with only soy sauce on top, without any meat or rice. From one to ten, expectations are high as to whether Go Joon’s struggles to overcome his sleep disorder will be effective.

Go Joon‘s appearance as he discovers the cause of his insomnia can be seen on ‘I Live Alone’, which airs tonight (the 29th) at 11:10 PM.
