Son Hyun-soo, Kim Min-kyung, and Ahn Sung-hoon do a great job of playing the role of ‘working siblings.’

They will be going to Mahyeon 1-ri, Cheorwon, Gangwon-do to help out on KBS 1TV’s ‘The Birth of a Worker Season 2’, which will air on the 18th.

Mahyeon 1-ri is a village where Uljin residents who lost their homes due to Typhoon Sarah in 1959 settled.Through great effort, the residents of this place turned the wasteland full of landmines into fertile soil for growing rice and paprika.

The village chief, who had been eagerly waiting for the workers since early in the morning, immediately handed them a list full of complaints from the villagers as soon as he met the three workers.Son Heon-su expressed his disappointment at the village chief who gave him the work without even saying hello, causing laughter.

First, the three worker siblings visited the paprika house to resolve the most urgent of the residents ‘numerous complaints: paprika harvesting.

June is the time when the village needs the most labor due to the paprika harvest, but due to the aging population of the village, the harvest is not progressing quickly due to the lack of young workers.So the workers roll up their sleeves and take on the harvest with enthusiasm.However, from the beginning, Ahn Sung-hoon and Son Heon-soo make a series of mistakes.However, with the help of the elderly couple, all three workers siblings successfully complete the paprika harvest.

Having resolved the first complaint, the three workers visit the home of Yun Deok-gi and Jeon Seung-ok, who are known in the village for their kindness, to resolve the second complaint.Yun Deok-gi, a loving husband, asks the workers to remove the high threshold, saying that it is the most dangerous thing for his wife, who has had difficulty moving due to knee pain for 20 years.


The youth leader, Son Heon-su, skillfully diagnosed the condition of the threshold and took charge of the work.Rookie worker Ahn Seong-hun showed his talent for cement leveling work and showed his potential for growth as a professional worker.In addition, Kim Min-kyung also surprised everyone by showing off her unrivaled strength, such as easily moving a stone bed that even men find difficult to lift.

The next place the three worker siblings visited was a perilla field.

An elderly man who suffers from angina and has difficulty doing housework asks the workers to cover the field with plastic.However, Ahn Seong-hoon, who was suffering from’ sesame field trauma ‘due to being scolded severely for not being able to shovel in the sesame field in Gimcheon last week, is greatly disheartened by the reappearance of the sesame field complaint.

The main character of the petition turns out to be a’ true fan ‘who has been to Ahn Sung-hoon’s concert, and he returns as a ‘lively’ trot prince to present a work song for everyone.Meanwhile, Son Heon-su, who is a original worker, collapses due to rapid physical decline, causing everyone to burst into laughter.

Lastly, the workers plan a ‘worker tour’ by taking in the elderly who usually cannot go on outings and the village chief’s additional request to go on an outing.From the ‘Cheorwon Hantangang Columnar Joint Road’ that boasts a natural beauty with the steep valley and the powerful Hantangang River to the ‘Goseokjeong Flower Garden’ filled with various colorful flowers.The elderly who could not enjoy their daily lives comfortably because of farm work and children’s worries smile brightly at the outing filled with the three workers ‘siblings’ sincerity.

Elder Yoon Deok-gi, who couldn’t even dream of going out because his wife’s legs were so bad, said, “I feel like my chest has been cleared,” and made the three workers siblings feel proud.
