Lim Chan-kyu, a professional baseball player and boyfriend of Son Sae-eun, the sister of Apink's Son Na-eun, is taking on a new challenge: parenting. Despite previous marriage rumors, Lim clarified, "The news about getting married this year is not true. We will let you know once it's decided."
In the fourth episode of the TVING original series 'Baseball Genius Lim Chan-kyu,' viewers will see Lim transform into 'Dad Lim' alongside his close friend and LG Twins franchise star, Hong Chang-ki, as they embark on a chaotic 'Three Brothers Parenting Challenge.'
During the off-season, the two players take on the task of babysitting to give their fellow married teammates a break. The stars of this episode are the 'Twins Juniors,' who bear a striking resemblance to their fathers: Yoo Ian, son of player Yoo Young-chan; Park Iden, son of player Park Hae-min; and Go Tae-hyun, son of player Go Woo-seok. The endless energy of these kids and the 'toy ownership disputes' that erupt in the kids' café create tension greater than a two-out situation in the bottom of the ninth inning.
Starting at 9 AM, the non-stop playtime, lunch, and the relentless energy of the 'Energizer' juniors take a toll on the players' stamina. Hong Chang-ki, known for his cool-headedness, is seen struggling in a dinosaur suit, while Lim Chan-kyu, who usually never runs out of energy, finds himself exhausted. This episode promises to be a highlight, showcasing the 'soul-drained' reality of these ace players.
The fourth episode of the TVING original series 'Baseball Genius Lim Chan-kyu' will be available on TVING at 6 PM on the 2nd.
