Jaejoong Kim, rumored to have assets worth 1 trillion won, is eyeing a permanent spot on 'Health Farmer,' replacing Baekho. The 40-year-old multi-talented star will appear as a guest on the 7th episode of 'Health Farmer,' airing at 7:30 PM on the 1st. The episode will feature the health farmers in Uiseong, Gyeongsangbuk-do, continuing their harvest of jicama. Kim, known for his singing, fitness, and cooking skills, is set to transform into an all-around farmer.
On the second morning in Uiseong, Kim surprises the health farmers by visiting their dorm while they are still asleep. He playfully disturbs a sleeping Choo Sung-hoon, showcasing his lively presence from the start. Kim also displays unexpected chemistry with Jung Dae-se, and impresses everyone by quickly preparing a delicious breakfast for the tired farmers.
After a hearty meal, the health farmers return to the challenging jicama harvest that had previously driven guest Park Jun-hyung to flee. The overnight drop in temperature has frozen the ground, making the digging even more difficult. Newcomer Kim finds himself overwhelmed but soon gets caught up in the thrill of the harvest, transforming into a passionate farmer. Choo Sung-hoon humorously remarks on Kim's hidden farming talent, saying, "Your speed is too fast. Let's slow down."
After the grueling work, the farmers are treated to a romantic camping experience, a first for 'Health Farmer.' Eldest member Choo Sung-hoon promises a grand camping treat for his younger teammates. The contrast is evident as the younger members explore the Uiseong market like fish in water, while Choo Sung-hoon turns a blind eye to the expensive ingredients.
The health farmers' competitive spirit continues at the campsite, drawing attention. The 'Butt Chopstick Breaking' game, a test of male pride, results in some extraordinary scenes. The rivalry between the older and younger members, along with the extreme situations requiring body language communication, adds to the excitement. Kim, who showcases his unique charm, declares, "I've joined as a new member instead of Baekho," sparking curiosity.
