Kim Sook was moved by ‘Hong Kim Dong-jeon’
My tear ducts exploded.

While Hong Jin-kyung, Kim Sook, Jo Se-ho, Joo Woo-jae, and Woo-young of the KBS entertainment program 'Hong Kim Dong-jeon' spent the second day transforming into world-class top stars, a letter from their number one fan was revealed, shocking the home theater.

KBS 2TV's entertainment show 'Hong Kim Dong-jeon' (directed by Park In-seok), which aired on the 2nd, featured two episodes of variety a day featuring world-class top stars.

Top models Hong, Joo Tae-ji, Joe Dragon, Wooyoung Jang, and manager Sook. The members of Hong Kim Dong-jeon, who completed various difficult schedules, had 'What's In My Bag' as their last schedule.

Joo Woo-jae, who was the first person in line, opened his bag and said, “There's nothing special,” and took out the car keys and medicine and revealed them one by one. He was puzzled when he found a letter envelope with an unknown source. He opened the envelope and checked it. But at that moment, Joo Woo-jae's eyes suddenly turned red, surprising everyone. It was a letter from Joo Woo-jae's father.

As soon as the producer's voice said, "The top star's last schedule of the day is to read a fan letter from your number one fan," the studio began to fall silent. Next, on behalf of Joo Woo-jae, who was shedding tears, Jo Se-ho read a letter from Joo Woo-jae's father, capturing everyone's attention. “Woojae! I don't think I ever remember writing a handwritten letter to my son. “When I came to Seoul from Changwon to go to college, I left him alone in the semi-basement studio in Hapjeong-dong. When I returned, I cried so much with my mother as we passed Gangbyeonbuk-ro. Even now, whenever I pass by there, I still talk about memories with my mother,” Joo Woo-jae said with a large hand. She covered her face and shed tears, leaving everyone in solemn silence. Joo Woo-jae sobbed over the first love letter his blunt father gave him, and after his father retired, he became the head of the household and let go of the burden of leading the household. He said, “When I read my father’s letters, I feel like a child again,” and was immersed in his father’s love.

The main character of the second letter was Wooyoung. Wooyoung covered his face with his hat and grumbled, “Why are you doing that?” and tried to compose himself. Wooyoung's mother expressed her sincerity in a letter, saying, "When I think about it now, I feel regret and regret that I was not able to support you more comfortably because I was worried about my father." Wooyoung confessed that after seeing his mother's diary, which he found by chance when he was young, and which he practiced writing for himself and his older sister, seeing his mother's handwriting especially resonates with his heart.

The main character of the third letter was Hong Jin-kyung. Hong Jin-kyung's mother brought laughter with a sense of humor that was as good as Hong Jin-kyung's. “It was a great idea for Kim to wear a suit and appear with a man on Infinite Challenge,” he said, adding, “I think your European dance is the best!” Awesome!” He concluded, bringing laughter. In response, Jin-kyung said, “I thought you were the head of the marketing team at our agency,” causing the members to shed tears.

The main character of the fourth letter was Jo Se-ho. The letter that started with “To the affectionate and considerate Sebastian,” touched my heart as it conveyed his regret for having less time and memories together due to his father prioritizing work at the company when he was young.

The subject of the last letter was Kim Sook. The four pages of handwritten letters delivered by my 86-year-old father were deeply moving. The father said, “Your mother confessed that the thing she regretted the most was a few years before she died. I regret not being able to buy Sook-sook the piano she wanted so much when she was young. “If you want it right now, tell me and I'll send you the money,” he said, making the boy shed tears, and then his father added Chinese characters in the letter, making the members laugh. At the end, the father expressed his love by saying, “I love you forever, my youngest,” and then asked for an explanation, saying, “I sent you tuition a few years ago when you said you were going to graduate school, but there was no news that you graduated yet,” making everyone laugh. Kim Sook said, “I needed money… “I’m sorry, father,” he said, repeatedly apologizing.

The members, who spent a day laughing and crying for a spectacular day as top stars, ended their overwhelming day feeling the deep love of their parents who made them top stars.

Meanwhile, a fan signing event was scheduled to find out about 'brand reputation'. Among the Hong Kim Dongjeon members, the member who received the most autographs from citizens took first place, and the long line waiting to get autographs even though it was late at night made me feel surprised and grateful.

Each citizen chose an autograph, but the member whose name was called did not have a big smile on his or her face. The rest of the members had disappointed expressions on their faces, making everyone laugh. As soon as the signing began, breaking everyone's expectations, a close battle between Jo Se-ho and Joo Woo-jae continued. Members who did not receive an autograph failed to receive just one vote. In the end, Wooyoung sang the song and danced without a second of hesitation at the fans' request, making the home theater explode into laughter. Thanks to Wooyoung's efforts, Jo Se-ho also began to sing and gather fans, and finally, first place in 'Brand Reputation' went to Jo Se-ho.

In the following schedule, through the 'Good Influence Evaluation', hidden cameras of the members were broadcast and the members' hidden good sides were introduced.
