Yoon Min-chae and Kwak Soo-hyun visit the studio once again, saying, “We moved in together last April, but we‘re worried about our fifth-grader son because of the changed circumstances.”
In the 17th episode of MBN’s ‘High School Mom-Pa 5 That Adults Don‘t Know’ (abbreviated as ‘High School Mom-Pa 5’), which will air on the 9th, ‘High School Mom-Pa’ Season 1 contestant ‘Si-ha’s Dad’ Kwak Soo-hyun and Season 1 contestant ‘Sung-hyun‘s Mom’ Yoon Min-chae will appear together to share the happy news of their marriage and also reveal their current concerns.
According to the production team, Yoon Min-chae and Kwak Soo-hyun greet the studio MCs Park Mi-sun, Seo Jang-hoon, and In Kyo-jin and announce that they are “the bride and groom-to-be, getting married in October.” Then, “Since we both have children, we already registered our marriage in August in order to hurry up and apply for ’adoption of a biological child.‘ We also combined our households at the end of April and are currently living together,” they shared their current situation.
Then, the two reveal their daily lives, in which they live together with their children, a total of four people. Early in the morning, as soon as Yoon Min-chae and Kwak Soo-hyun wake up, they bring their daughters into the living room and play happily with them. On the other hand, their son, a fifth grader, stands in contrast by not coming out of his room for a long time. Yoon Min-chae explains, “My son doesn’t come out of his room very often,” and “He said he needs time alone now that he’s in the fifth grade, so I don’t invite him over.” Then, her son quietly leaves his room and sits on the living room sofa, and the family of four eats breakfast in an awkward atmosphere. However, her son just eats his food without saying much and then immediately leaves and goes back into his room. Park Mi-sun, who was watching this, gives Yoon Min-chae a look of sympathy, saying, “Isn’t puberty the most difficult time (for boys)?”
After eating, Kwak Soo-hyun heads to work. Seeing Kwak Soo-hyun in a neat suit, In Kyo-jin asks, “I thought you were a rapper. Did you change jobs?” Kwak Soo-hyun replies, “I guess I can’t work hard as a rapper because I can’t make ends meet financially. I decided that it would be unrealistic.” “I had to find another job because I had to take responsibility for more family members after getting married,” he answers.
Amidst curiosity about what Kwak Soo-hyun’s new job will be, Yoon Min-chae tells Kwak Soo-hyun after he gets home from work, “I‘m worried because it seems like your son is still awkward around his father. How about doing something where you can create memories of just the two of you?” Kwak Soo-hyun says, “I was worried about the same thing,” and diligently plans a date with his son. Will Kwak Soo-hyun be able to get closer to his 5th grade son from his remarriage? You can find out about the family’s changed current situation and concerns on the show.
The show airs at 10:20 p.m. on the 9th.
