In the 63rd episode of Channel A's 'Men's Life These Days - Groom's Class (hereinafter referred to as 'Groom's Class')', which airs on the 10th, Kim Jae-joong's day unfolds as he meets former military classmates and strengthens their friendship through 'Latte Army Stories'.
On this day, Kim Jaejoong made the 'Jaejanggeum' ticket '10-Minute Yukgaejang', arrived at the restaurant he personally rented, and waited for someone. But at this time, four men came in and greeted Kim Jaejoong with a salute. Lee Gyu-han of 'The Grooms', who was expecting something(?), sighed and said, "I called my military comrades~" and made people laugh.
Kim Jaejoong introduces them as “comrades in the military band while serving in the 55th Division Beacon Unit,” and starts by asking about the dating status of the comrades he hasn’t seen in a long time. All of his comrades reveal that they currently have girlfriends, and Kim Jaejoong pouts, saying, “I’m jealous.” In response, the comrades ask a quick question, “Hyung, don’t you date?” Kim Jaejoong, who was confused for a moment, paused and said, “I’m in love with someone right now.” But then he replies, “Our fans~” ‘Grooms’ Kim Yong-jun, who was watching this in the studio, immediately made a gesture of grabbing Kim Jae-joong by the collar, causing laughter.
Soon, Kim Jae-joong and his comrades begin a full-fledged 'military talk' with nostalgic food such as Kim Jae-joong's signature beef stew and 'biscuit flakes' that he ate in the military. At this time, the senior, who is much younger than Kim Jaejoong, begins to reveal Kim Jaejoong's military 'story', saying, "Honestly, my brother was in much better shape than he is now." Meanwhile, the comrades unanimously express their ‘respect’ for Kim Jaejoong. In particular, the bathroom cleaning 'story' is surprising because it is a story that is at the level of a myth. Furthermore, the comrades thank Kim Jaejoong for being a ‘turning point’ in their lives, saying, “I want to live like my brother.”
