Comedian Kim Sook and broadcaster Yoon Jung-soo, who signed a 2030 marriage contract, reveal their desire to get married.

On the second episode of the MBN·MBC Dramanet entertainment show ‘Living Report’, which airs on Wednesday, April 2nd at 10:20 PM, broadcaster Yoon Jung-soo will appear and reveal his dream of living abroad and request a ‘customized guide’.

On this day, Yoon Jung-soo honestly confesses, “I‘ve dreamed of living abroad since I was little, but I don’t have any money because I‘ve been scammed every time”, and he lists “A place that’s close to Korea, but has a wide view, and low prices” as his desired condition. In response to Yoon Jung-soo‘s remarks, Lee Ji-hye and Jay Sean recommend Laos and Kyrgyzstan, which are called ‘price heavens, and enter into a fierce competition to win his choice.

Lee Ji-hye, who unfortunately failed to hit Kim Eung-soo’s taste in the first episode, goes for revenge by putting forward Laos, which is called the ‘France of Asia’. Lee Ji-hye summons the Jang Man-jun, Na-ri, and Jang Se-hyeon family, who are living the second act of their lives in Laos after honorably retiring after serving as firefighters in Korea for 30 years, as her ‘living guides’, and the family introduces Yoon Jung-soo‘s daily life in Laos, where they enjoy everything from food to sightseeing for ‘10,000 won per person’ a day.

The family first heads to the traditional market ‘Tong Khan Kam’ to do some shopping. This market captivates everyone’s hearts with its low prices: cabbages for 1,000 won a head, potatoes for 900 won per kg, and bananas for 700 won a bunch. Tropical fruits such as mangoes, dragon fruits, and papayas are especially surprising because they are only one-sixth of the price in Korea. Lee Ji-hye shakes Yoon Jung-soo‘s heart by saying, “In Korea, a basket of fruit costs about 100,000 won, but in Laos, you can buy a truckload of fruit with that money.”

After buying a bunch of fruit at the market, the family goes to the most sacred temple in Laos, ‘Wat Si Muang,’to pray for the family’s health and happiness. At this time, Lee Ji-hye asks Yoon Jung-soo, “What do you want to wish for?”, and he says, “I haven‘t given up on getting married yet,”, expressing his desire to get married. However, Lee Ji-hye corrects him by saying, “I’m sorry, but I heard this temple only grants wishes for things other than love,”, making Yoon Jung-soo cry. Finally, Yoon Jung-soo burns down the scene by asking, “Does God choose one‘s wish?”

In the midst of fantastic chemistry, ‘Living Guide’ Jang Man-joon explains the local culture by saying, “Laos is a matriarchal society where women have a strong influence,” and ‘Living with one’s wife’ is common. The MCs then ask Yoon Jung-soo, “Is international marriage okay?” and “Is living with one‘s wife possible?” Yoon Jung-soo laughs leisurely, saying, “I’m open to everything,” and responds to the comment, “Laos men have a gangster mentality,” by saying, “The country has a world-class mindset,” causing the studio to burst into laughter.

You can find out which place Yoon Jung-soo will ultimately choose between Laos and Kyrgyzstan on the 2nd (Wednesday) at 10:20 PM on MBN·MBC Dramanet‘s 2nd episode of ‘Living Report’’.&br>
