KBS2 entertainment show ‘The Boss‘s Ears Are Donkey Ears’ Kim Byung-hyun is closing down his hamburger shop after 3 years of operation.

Today’s (29th) broadcast of ‘Donkey Ears’ will depict Kim Byung-hyun‘s hamburger shop closing down. While Kim Byung-hyun’s surprise visit to the health center that day piqued curiosity, it was revealed that it was a visit to apply for the closure of the hamburger shop, which made everyone feel sad.

Kim Byung-hyun makes everyone‘s mouths drop with the enormous loss of “200 million won in 3 years”. Kim Byung-hyun said, “It’s harder than during COVID,” and “Prices have gone up so much, rent is hard to afford, and delivery fees are expensive, so sales have dropped by up to 70% compared to COVID,” honestly revealing the hardships and mental anguish he‘s experienced while running a hamburger restaurant.

In particular, Chef Jung Ho-young joined Kim Byung-hyun as a senior in the closing business and shared Kim Byung-hyun’s sadness in order to smoothly apply for closure. However, Jeon Hyun-moo saw this and said, “Song Hoon, Jung Ho-young, and Kim Byung-hyun are the three-person Mang Trio representing ‘Sadanggui,’” causing sad laughter.

In the meantime, Kim Byung-hyun takes charge of getting rid of the kitchen and dining room utensils. Contrary to his expectations for a lucrative purchase price given the large sum of 30 million won he paid when starting the business, the second-hand buyer shocked Kim Byung-hyun by saying, “1.1 million won.” Kim Byung-hyun then repeatedly replied, “1.1 million won? Isn’t there a zero missing?” and had a mental breakdown, causing heartbreak.

Meanwhile, announcer Hong Joo-yeon made a surprise appearance on the footage, capturing everyone’s attention. Upon seeing this, Kim Sook expressed her delight by saying, “Hyun-moo’s woman is coming out,” to which Jeon Hyun-moo joked, “I’m currently recording ‘Sadangwi’ on the condition that I use that video.” Finally, Jeon Hyun-moo said, “Let‘s just get out of here,” and burst into laughter, mentioning his inseparable relationship with Hong Joo-yeon, making people curious about what they talked about.

KBS 2TV’s ‘The Boss‘s Ears Are Donkey Ears’ airs every Sunday at 4:40 PM.
