Shin Dong-yup gave heartfelt advice to Kim Jung-hyun after his courageous confession.

On KBS 2TV show ‘Going Jung, Coming Jung, Lee Min Jung’ (abbreviated as ‘Gao Jung’) aired on the 13th, the third supercar sales scene of the Jung siblings(Lee Min Jung, Boom, Ahn Jae Hyun, Kim Jung Hyun, Kim Jae Won)was revealed.Above all, the god of entertainment Shin Dong Yup, who we can trust and watch, appeared as a guest and caught everyone’s attention.Shin Dong Yup not only made everyone burst into laughter with his signature wit, but also moved everyone with his warm advice to the Jung siblings.At the center of it all was Kim Jung Hyun, who courageously shared his true feelings.

On this day, the Jung siblings visited the charming and charming Hongseong Masa Village in Chungcheongnam-do.The residents gave the Jung siblings gifts of tofu, mugwort rice cakes, and dongdongju that they had made themselves.To repay their warm hearts, the Jung siblings did their best to help out with supercar sales, rice planting, weeding, and firewood cutting.As the episodes went on, the chemistry between the Jung siblings became more and more perfect, and the laughter continued to burst out.

After finishing their work and returning to their accommodation, the Jung siblings were surprised to see a guest waiting for them.It was none other than the god of Korean entertainment, Shin Dong-yup, who came to see the Jung siblings, holding a lot of delicious food in both hands.Boom couldn’t hide his surprise at Shin Dong-yup’s appearance on an outdoor entertainment show, saying, “It’s my first time seeing you in natural light.” In reality, it was very unusual for Shin Dong-yup to appear on an outdoor entertainment show, and as a guest at that.This was Shin Dong-yup’s loyalty to his close friend Lee Min-jung.

Afterwards, the Jung siblings and Shin Dong-yup sat together and shared various stories.Shin Dong-yup, who is famous for being close friends with Lee Min-jung’s husband Lee Byung-hun, revealed the story of his first meeting with Lee Min-jung, hosting the Lee Byung-hun and Lee Min-jung couple’s wedding, and an episode of the Baeksang Arts Awards after-party at Lee Byung-hun and Lee Min-jung’s house.Lee Min-jung made everyone laugh by revealing that the reason she couldn’t congratulate Shin Dong-yup on his award at the time was because of her husband Lee Byung-hun.

The Jung siblings and Shin Dong-yup also revealed their true feelings.When talking about their life works, Ahn Jae-hyun chose KBS 2TV weekend drama ‘The Real Thing’, which was his first drama in three years, and recalled, “I felt like I couldn’t do anything if I couldn’t do this,” and “I cried a lot when I received a call from the director.” Boom mentioned KBS entertainment show ‘Champagne’, where he first met Shin Dong-yup, and recalled the popular corner ‘Ideal Type World Cup’.Shin Dong-yup said he was impressed by Boom’s wit at the time.

At that time, the one who made the most difficult confession was Kim Jung-hyun.When asked about the difficult times, Kim Jung-hyun said, “After going through something difficult, the only thing left was ‘life or death.’ I thought, ‘If I keep holding on to something difficult, it will only continue to be difficult.’” To overcome this, Kim Jung-hyun apologized for the controversy surrounding him before giving his acceptance speech at last year’s KBS Drama Awards.Kim Jung-hyun said, “I’m not denying it, but I’m living as if nothing difficult ever happened, so I think I’m getting healthier.” Kim Jung-hyun is feeling sorry and working towards a healthier life.


Shin Dong-yup advised, “Children keep falling down.Strangely enough, they try not to hit that spot next time.That’s what they realize.We are adults too, but that’s how we realize it.Just because they fall down once, they shouldn’t think, ‘I’m so embarrassed, ‘or’ So many people are watching, why did I fall down here? ‘“

Kim Jung-hyun continued, “I realized something after reading a quote a while ago.Life is a series of hardships and a series of pain, but what torments me is not the hardships and pain, but my strong, unbreakable ego.When I’m having a hard time, in order to make sure that that’s not all there is, I exercise, quit drinking, and meet good people.If I think like that, it seems like there’s nothing I can’t do.I think I become grateful.” Shin Dong-yup heard this and said, “If you know how to be grateful, there will continue to be things to be thankful for,” giving Kim Jung-hyun strength.

Kim Jung-hyun is an introvert(I)in ‘Gaojeong’, but he quietly does his best in the work he is given, and he works so hard that he forgets about the camera, earning the nickname ‘So Jung-hyun’.And he started showing a bright smile to the Jung siblings and the residents.The eldest of the Jung siblings, Lee Min-jung, was so happy to see Kim Jung-hyun’s change, who had become much more comfortable.The fact that Kim Jung-hyun was able to make such a difficult confession was probably because of his efforts and the Jung siblings who faced him with one heart.Here, Shin Dong-yup comforted his heart with sincere advice.
