‘Groom Class’ Kim Jong-min shows his affection for his bride-to-be.

On the 144th episode of ‘These Days Men‘s Life - Groom Class’ (hereafter ‘Groom Class’)’ on Channel A, which aired on the 18th, Kim Jong-min goes on a forestry tour with Koyote member Baekga to look for a newlywed home, and also reveals his romanticism about marriage, exciting the ‘Studio Mentor Corps’.

On this day, Kim Jong-min says, “Baekga is someone I know who is very knowledgeable about real estate and finance”, and they go to a real estate agent with him. Afterwards, the two of them look around the properties recommended by the real estate agent and carefully check every nook and cranny. In particular, Baekga uses a lighter to check if the windows are double or triple glazing, and also checks for condensation. Meanwhile, Baekga asks, “What is your taste in interior design?” and Kim Jongmin replies, “If I get married, I’ll leave everything to my wife,” revealing his “wife-loving” side from the start.

A little later, the real estate agent introduces a property to Kim Jongmin, saying, “If you‘re planning on having a second child, there’s a single-family home you might like.” Kim Il-woo, a “6th grade, class 1” who was watching this from the studio, asks curiously, “Are you planning on having a second child?” and Kim Jongmin replies, “We need to prepare right away,” showing great enthusiasm. Shim Hyung-tak, who is expecting his second child in January next year, also says, “Now that we have a child, I can‘t help but think that we’ll have to move to a different place (to fit the child). He sympathizes with Kim Jong-min‘s story, saying, ”I’ve been looking for a house lately.“

After finishing the tour of the newlywed house, Kim Jong-min also stops by Baekga‘s house. However, Kim Jong-min says, ”This isn’t the first time I‘ve been to Baekga’s house, but now I look at it thinking of the kids,“ and nags at the indoor staircase, saying, ”It‘s too dangerous.“ After that, Kim Jong-min looks around Baekga’s house, and when Baekga says about her music work room, ”When I have a child later, I‘ll make this room a baby’s room,“ he says, ”I think you‘ve gone too far. Why are you making a baby’s room when you‘re not even married?“ and responds, ”I think it would be nice if you made a room called OOO for your wife.“

However, the ’mentor group‘ who hears this say, ”How are you going to handle the aftermath... ”, “My thoughts are too short-sighted”, he sighs. You can find out what kind of room Kim Jong-min wants to make for his wife on the 144th episode of ‘Groom Class’, which airs on Channel A at 9:30 p.m. today (the 18th).
