In particular, in this episode, eldest brother Lee Si-eon made a surprise appearance, enhancing the chemistry between the brothers. Lee Si-eon prepared a table of seaweed soup and japchae for his younger siblings, and the sight of the three brothers eating food filled with so much love from their older brother was heartwarming. The close friendship of ‘Madagascar Death Penalty’ has finally come to fruition, and viewership ratings have broken all-time records.
The mourning clothes were also blown out. The 'Around the World' team, which produced the Grand Prize, Rookie Award, and Best Couple Award at the 2023 MBC Entertainment Awards, was also recognized overseas. On the 19th, 'Around the World 2' was honored with an award at the Asian Television Awards (ATA), Asia's most prestigious media awards ceremony.

Kian84, who has said that Yeoju is his hometown on several occasions, filmed several times in a village in Heungcheon-myeon while appearing on 'I Live Alone' and received a banner of support and congratulations by winning the '2023 MBC Entertainment Awards' and appearing in the 'Around the World While I Was Born 3' program.

Kian84 hasn't had only good days during his broadcasting career. At other times, smoke came out of the chimney and I was bombarded with negative comments due to my raw remarks. But in the end, his sincerity prevailed and the public accepted it. The secret to being loved by the public was the unique color that was consistently revealed.
It has been less than a month since I received the entertainment grand prize. Nevertheless, there is no day when the gums are dry from the viewership ratings, topicality, and awards. This is why the energy of the grand prize has been cast for two consecutive years since the beginning of the year.
