‘Groom Class’ Kim Jong-min received a passing grade for ‘Meeting-the-in-law Rehearsal’ ahead of his April wedding.

Episode 148 of ‘These Days Men‘s Life - Groom Class’ on Channel A released on the 29th showed Kim Jong-min’s informative class where he learned not only wedding attire fittings but also meeting-the-in-law etiquette in advance. Additionally, Kim Il-woo took sweet couple photos with Park Sun-young on a date in Ikseon-dong, and even visited Park Sun-young‘s high school best friend for a tarot card, raising the excitement index.

‘Groom-to-be’ Kim Jong-min, who is scheduled to get married on April 20, made a surprise appearance on the wedding street in Cheongdam-dong that day. Kim Jong-min said, “I decided to go for a health checkup together (with my girlfriend) tomorrow” and shared his recent ‘wedding preparations’ before entering a wedding shop. Here, he met Park Hyun-ho, another ‘groom-to-be’ who had arrived earlier. Park Hyun-ho, who had already finished his wedding photoshoot with Eun Ga-eun, came to help Kim Jong-min with his formal attire fitting and said to Kim Jong-min, “I think I’m the only one who hasn‘t seen your wife’s picture yet.” Kim Jong-min briefly revealed a picture of his girlfriend, and Park Hyun-ho, who saw it, praised her, saying, “I think you have to do well from now on, hyung. You‘re so pretty.”. At the studio, Kim Jong-min also revealed a picture of his bride-to-be, and ‘principal’ Lee Seung-chul said, “She feels very intellectual”, while Lee Da-hae and Shim Jin-hwa both said, “She’s so pretty.”.

A while later, Moon Se-yoon made a surprise visit to the wedding shop. He declared, “My goal is to bring Kim Jong Min, who currently has a ‘D-’ GPA, up to an ‘A+’ before the wedding!” and announced that he would ‘‘‘teaser’’.‘Kim Jong Min was flustered, as he had no idea what ‘‘‘dress’’’ was, and Moon Se Yoon gave him an intensive education on the world of ‘studio+dress+makeup’. He also taught him the model reactions that the groom-to-be should show when the bride-to-be is fitting her dress. At this time, Lee Da Hae asked, ”From the groom-to-be‘s perspective, when do you think the bride-to-be looks the prettiest?”, Kim Jong Min responded, ”She’s cutest when she doesn‘t have makeup on. She looks like a baby,“ showing off his ‘loving’ side.

In the warm atmosphere, Kim Jong Min tried on various formal attire. Afterwards, he sent a photo of himself in his outfit to his girlfriend. He then smiled with satisfaction, saying, ”My girlfriend said she liked black (suit) better.“ After the class ended smoothly, Moon Se Yoon said, ”This time, I’m going to give you a class on ‘etiquette for meeting the in-laws’,“ and took him to a restaurant. There, Moon Se Yoon taught him the proper seating arrangements for the two families at a meeting, as well as the menu and dining manners appropriate for a meeting. Then, Moon Se Yoon asked, ”Are your future in-laws sensitive about etiquette?“ Kim Jong Min answered, ”They have a free-spirited style. They understand and respect me. My (future) in-laws are the type who ask me to go fishing together.“ When asked, ”Is there anything you‘re working on in particular for your marriage?“ he honestly answered, ”I’m controlling myself. Even when something annoys me, I try to let go and be considerate,“ making everyone burst into laughter. After Kim Jong-min‘s ‘Meeting Rehearsal’ filled with laughter, this time Kim Il-woo and Park Sun-young’s Ikseon-dong date scene unfolded.

On this day, Kim Il-woo met Park Sun-young in Ikseon-dong wearing the scarf and gloves that Park Sun-young had given him as a gift. Park Sun-young gave Kim Il-woo a hot pack that she had warmed up in advance and said, ”I feel like I‘m getting younger thanks to you.“ Kim Il-woo exclaimed, ”I want to try everything that other people do,“ and then took solo photos of Park Sun-young at a hanok cafe. The two also ‘obtained’ a couple caricature at a caricature shop and took ‘couple photos’ at a self-studio with an Enlightenment period concept. Regarding this, Kim Il-woo said, ”Actually, Sun-young once expressed her romanticism about couple looks. So I looked into an event-style photo studio, and I think it will be a good memory for both of us,” he confessed, receiving applause from the ‘Studio Mentor Corps.

While picking out clothes for each other, the two also performed a ‘Newlyweds Situation Play’. When Kim Il-woo said, “Honey, I’m going to work~”, Park Sun-young responded perfectly, “Honey, make lots of money~”. Furthermore, Park Sun-young dyed the set pink with a ‘Thrilling Moment’ by adjusting Kim Il-woo‘s collar and trouser legs. The two, who had transformed into a handsome man and woman from the Enlightenment Period, took couple photos that looked like movie posters. After finishing the sweet photo shoot, the two then went to the tarot shop that Park Sun-young had prepared. However, the tarot master there was Park Sun-young’s high school classmate and ‘37-year best friend’, making Kim Il-woo nervous. Kim Il-woo bowed 90 degrees to the tarot master and said, “Please take care of me,” and the tarot master, as a close friend of Park Sun-young, recalled their colorful past by saying, “Sun-young was very famous even during her school days.”

Kim Il-woo and Park Sun-young had their fortunes read in a friendly atmosphere. After looking at the cards the two chose, the tarot master gave a positive interpretation, saying, “Although we have different personalities, I think that‘s why we can rely on each other more. I wonder if we can each other receive the energy we need.” He continued, “It would be nice if Sun-young had a boyfriend who would cheer her on from behind, saying, ’You‘re doing well, you’re doing well.‘ Actor Kim Il-woo should come up (to Seoul) often,” and advised her. Kim Il-woo said, “It’s hard to make plans with Sun-young. While complaining that ”the construction is hectic“, he cheerfully added, ”If we become a good pair, I‘ll take care of the house and (Seon-young) go out and earn money~“. Park Seon-young retorted, ”Do a good job with the house~“ and the ”Studio Mentor Corps“ cheered, ”That’s it! That‘s it!“ at the perfect tiki-taka between the two.

Lastly, Park Seon-young’s friend said, ”I hope we can pour our energy into each other at least this year.“ Park Seon-young, who came out of the tarot shop, smiled and said, ”It feels like I‘ve gained a strong support group.“ Kim Il-woo said affectionately, ”If you need me to do something, please do it, and if you need to discuss something, let’s discuss it.“ Park Sun-young said, ”This year, I‘ll make longer phone calls!“ and linked arms with Kim Il-woo, and Kim Il-woo made everyone laugh by saying, ”Am I going to be a shutterman?“

‘Groom Class’ airs every Wednesday at 9:30 p.m.
