In the episode airing on the 28th on TV CHOSUN, viewers will get a glimpse into the busy preparations of Lim Hyung-joo and his mother, Helen Kim, for an upcoming recital. Upon arriving at the venue, Helen Kim, who takes on the roles of director, stylist, and manager, meticulously oversees every detail of the performance, adhering to her principle that "a performance is a fantasy."
However, during rehearsals, tensions arise between Lim and his mother over song selection. Lim expresses his frustration, stating, "I am someone who doesn't compromise or yield when it comes to music. It's disheartening and frustrating when dealing with emotions and feelings." The disagreement extends to wardrobe choices, with Lim rejecting a white suit prepared by his mother to match the song's concept, likening it to looking like a "polar bear." His mother retorts, "If you look like a polar bear, lose some weight."
Further tension arises when Lim hums to check his vocal condition before the performance, only to be told by his mother to "keep it down." Lim laments, "I need to warm up my voice to sing... it's frustrating." His mother argues that hearing preparations could diminish the audience's sense of mystery, emphasizing the importance of presenting a perfect stage.
Model Han Hye-jin comments on the constant clashes, expressing surprise at the contrasting mother-son relationship. Jeon Hyun-moo sides with Lim's mother, agreeing that the sense of mystery is important, saying, "I understand the need to preserve the mystery; I want to hear Lim's voice from the first stage." Lim humorously expresses his disappointment, saying, "It seems Jeon Hyun-moo is on Helen Kim's side, not mine. Why don't you become her son?" Jeon quickly backtracks, saying, "That might not be easy," eliciting laughter.
'Dad and Me Season 3' airs at 10 PM.
