On the TV CHOSUN show ‘Perfect Life’ to be aired on the 26th, actor Lim Hyun-sik, known as the ‘master of licorice acting’, will share his recent activities in a 1,000-pyeong hanok.

According to the production team, Lim Hyun-sik will show his daily life living alone in a hanok that he built himself in 1999. When MC Oh Ji-ho sees the house and wonders, “Have you ever dreamed of living in a hanok?”, Lim Hyun-sik explains the reason for living in a hanok, saying, “I wanted to live in a hanok while traveling to folk villages around the country to film a historical drama.”

Lim Hyun-sik, who has been living alone for the past 8 months since his second daughter, with whom he lived, moved out, surprisingly reveals his cooking skills that he had been hiding, saying, “You have to eat breakfast well”. As he starts grilling the mackerel, he shows off his ‘dazzling flipping skills’ by flipping the mackerel over while frying all the oil, and then quickly wipes the pan he used to grill the mackerel and immediately fries an egg, drawing attention with his extraordinary cooking skills.


After that, Lim Hyun-sik spends time visiting neighbors and chatting with the residents. The neighbors tell Lim Hyun-sik, who lives alone, “If you know someone good, go meet them” and show their concern, and Lim Hyun-sik looks somewhat unsure, saying, “Is it too late?”.

MC Hyun-young looks at him with suspicion, asking, “You really don‘t have a girlfriend?”. Oh Ji-ho asks, “Didn’t you go on a blind date with singer Tony Ahn‘s mother?” and is curious about the aftermath of the blind date they had on a variety show.

Then, Lim Hyun-sik sighs deeply and answers, “If I were to tell this story, I would have to write a novel,” arousing curiosity. Lim Hyun-sik’s ideal type, who surprised the studio, can be confirmed through the broadcast.

The broadcast is on the 26th at 8 p.m.
