The touching story of Park Seo-jin’s family and the unexpected daily life of ‘new house husband’ Jinu captivated viewers.

KBS 2TV show ‘Men Who Do Housework Season 2’ that aired on the 28th showed the story of Park Seo-jin planning his father’s 70th birthday party and the episode of Jinu, who made his first appearance as an ‘N-year-old man ‘.

Thanks to the unique story of the two people, the viewership rating for the broadcast that day recorded 6.4% according to Nielsen Korea’s nationwide tally, and in particular, the scene where the three Park Seo-jins hear the results of their father’s knee test recorded the highest viewership rating of 7.4%.

On this day, a video containing the story of Park Seo-jin’s family was revealed, with Baek Ji-heon of the group fromis_9 appearing as a special guest.Park Seo-jin discussed the plan with his older brother Hyo-young and younger sister Hyo-jung while preparing a surprise 70th birthday party for his father, who turns 70 this year.

The three siblings were worried about their father, who had recently shown signs of depression along with his deteriorating health, and recalled when he was the happiest, and Park Seo-jin remembered what his father had said before.Park Seo-jin’s father had previously said, “I was the happiest when I lived in Shindo.My sons were all alive, and I lived comfortably without any worries.” So the three siblings decided to throw a lavish 70th birthday party for their father in Shindo.

Then, the father, who arrived at the hospital, explained his symptoms in detail that he had not been able to tell his children.The diagnosis was that his knee condition was so serious that in the worst case, he would have to consider artificial joint surgery.Park Seo-jin was so shocked that he could not continue speaking, and the father said, “My head went blank.When you turn 70, you empty your mind a lot.I can’t express that feeling in words.I cried.”

Park Seo-jin tried to cheer up his depressed father, and the father said he had a wish and headed to a photo studio with his two sons.The three of them were awkward about taking their first triplet photo, but thanks to Park Seo-jin’s encouragement, the older brother plucked up his courage and gave his father a kiss on the cheek.The father said, “It felt really good to take a photo of the three of us for the first time.I thought, ‘I can have a day like this too.’It’s such a great thing to be able to take a photo with my two sons.”

While the friendly atmosphere continued, my father suddenly asked to take a solo photo.He explained, “My father passed away at the age of 53 and my mother at the age of 64.Neither of them were able to leave behind a memorial photo while they were alive, so my mother enlarged an existing photo and my father drew a picture to replace the memorial photo.” He continued, “That’s why I wanted to take a memorial photo while I was still young, even if it was just for a year, since I’m happy today.”

Park Seo-jin ended up shedding tears at his father’s unexpected words.He said, “The meaning is good, but the longevity photo is ultimately a memorial photo, so it seemed like my dad was preparing for the end.I also thought he was taking it before he got sick more,” and “It was so sad to see my dad calmly preparing.”

Next week, the father’s longevity photo shoot and 70th birthday party were announced, raising expectations for the next episode by bringing deep emotions and tears to the eyes.
