Along with his thoughts on being the MC of ‘My Dad and Me’, he hinted at some key points to watch for that will increase immersion, saying, “Season 2 is an unscripted drama”.

The popular family entertainment show TV CHOSUN ‘My Dad and Me’ will premiere its season 2 on the 11th (Tuesday) at 10 p.m. Jeon Hyun-moo will meet viewers again as an MC and ‘Representative Son’, following Season 1. In the last season, Jeon Hyun-moo led the program with empathy and sometimes anger as he told stories of various families, such as the ‘K-eldest daughter’, two mothers, single life and isolation, awkward father-son relationship, and an oppressive head of the household. Viewers were able to cry and laugh with Jeon Hyun-moo and naturally melt into the stories of the stars.

With the first broadcast of Season 2 just a week away, Jeon Hyun-moo shared his thoughts, saying, “I will lead Season 2 of ‘Dad and I’ with deep empathy and witty banter in each episode.” Jeon Hyun-moo, the ‘empathy fairy’ and ‘old fart’ of ‘Dad and I’, will reveal the key points to watch for in Season 2.

● Unscripted ’real‘ family stories

Jeon Hyun-moo: What I felt while meeting all kinds of families this season is that ‘Dad and I’ is like an unscripted drama. The families’ real stories feel like stories about our own homes and families, and I think the unpredictable situations that can lead to unexpected twists and turns will make viewers more curious and entertained. As the son, I am also most excited for this part.



Season 2 will also capture moments when family members become strength for each other, and will be a meaningful time to look back on the meaning of ’Dad‘ in the course of life. Through the stories of fathers who are the fence and steadfast support of a family, I think it will be an opportunity to look back on the meaning of ’True family‘.

● A more in-depth family ’Reunion‘ story

Jun Hyun-moo: Last season, the family history of Lee Seung-yeon, who revealed her two mothers and fathers, and the story of Mr. Baek Il-seop and his daughter, who were estranged for 7 years, were the center of attention. This season as well, a family ’Reunion‘ story that will draw tears and empathy from viewers awaits. From the national child actor to a shaman, Lee Gun-joo had to be estranged from his father for 10 years, and the story of his mother, whose face he had never seen before and whose name he did not even know. You can experience a moment of deeper ’family reunion‘.

● A generational empathy program that leads to ’communication‘ between families

Jeon Hyun-moo: The generation of fathers who were too busy making a living to be with their families, and the children who became independent and started new families, leaving their parents on the back burner… Watching the story of two generations who have such different things to say and methods of communication, I think we will be able to find answers on how to bridge the gap between parents and children, and I think it will be a journey to find answers together on how to ’communicate’ that will bring the estranged relationship one step closer.

Season 2 of TV CHOSUN‘s ’Dad and Me‘, which will feature the heartbreaking family history of actor and shaman ’Soondol‘ Lee Gun-joo and the father-son relationship of ’Chinese cuisine expert‘ Chef Yeo Kyung-rae who is worse than his coworkers, will premiere on Tuesday, March 11 at 10 p.m.
