Baseball legend Lee Jong-beom, known as the 'Son of the Wind,' and his 25-month-old grandson, Ko Tae-hyun, make their first appearance on KBS2's 'The Return of Superman' (also known as 'Superman is Back'). Despite his family's strong baseball lineage, young Tae-hyun surprises everyone with his 'idol DNA.'
Airing today (4th), episode 607 of 'The Return of Superman' is themed 'Legendary Grandpa's Parenting Diary,' featuring MCs Kim Jong-min and Lala. Lee Jong-beom, dubbed 'Super Grandpa,' and his grandson Tae-hyun make their debut on the show.
Tae-hyun, who comes from a family of baseball players including his grandfather Lee Jong-beom, uncle Lee Jung-hoo, and father Ko Woo-seok, showcases an unexpected talent. When EXO's 'Growl' plays on TV, Tae-hyun captivates with his powerful dance moves. He not only sings along, pronouncing "Growl, Growl," but also impresses with his quick footwork reminiscent of his grandfather's speed. He further charms with a freeze move to Le Sserafim's 'Spaghetti,' displaying his adorable baby b-boy skills.
Lee Jong-beom, amused by Tae-hyun's dance, jokingly remarks, "Tae-hyun, you should be holding a bat." Noticing Tae-hyun's quick feet and strong lower body, Lee Jong-beom can't resist and hands him a toy bat, encouraging him to dance with it. Tae-hyun eagerly swings the bat, hinting at his potential as a future batting champion, much to his grandfather's delight.
Catch the charming transformation of Tae-hyun into a 25-month-old baby b-boy and Lee Jong-beom's determination to nurture his grandson's baseball talent on today's episode of 'The Return of Superman.'
KBS 2TV's 'The Return of Superman' airs every Wednesday at 8:30 PM.
