Kim Jun-ho, 'Flex' foreign car for wife who is pregnant with second child

Fencing player Kim Jun-ho ‘flexed’ a foreign car for his wife.

The 465th episode of KBS 2TV's 'The Return of Superman' (hereinafter referred to as 'Superman'), which aired on the 10th, featured the 'Cheering for a New Challenge' episode. Kim Jun-ho's son Eun-woo revealed his potential for musical giftedness at his grandmother's 'Daily Music Culture Center'.

Eunwoo showed off his giftedness in music by challenging himself to play a musical instrument. Eun-woo visited his father, Kim Jun-ho, and his maternal grandmother, who graduated from a music school and turned into a teacher at the ‘Daily Music Culture Center.’ Eunwoo easily learned the sound of an instrument he had never seen before. When Eunwoo saw the guitar, he realized that the sound was made by plucking the strings and surprised the audience by playing it himself. After finishing playing, Eunwoo clapped and even encouraged a response, proving that he is a musician. Kim Jun-ho was impressed, saying, “Eun-woo is good at concentrating on the sound. He plays the instrument correctly.”

Kim Jun-ho visited the hospital with his pregnant wife Yoo Jeong-hyeon and son Eun-woo. Eun-woo had a historic first meeting with his mother's younger brother, Eun-dong. Eunwoo focused on his younger brother's movements on the ultrasound screen. Kim Jun-ho checked the development status skillfully as he was the second child, asking, “How is the size compared to the number of weeks?” The doctor said, “Your thighs are strong and your legs are long,” and he expected Eun-dong, who will be born soon, to have national-class thighs like Eun-woo. Kim Jun-ho expressed his sorrow, saying, "It was good that he grew up well, but I feel sorry that I couldn't watch the process because of the competition schedule."

After a hospital checkup, Kim Jun-ho suddenly headed to a place other than home. He took his wife and son to the car store. The car store employee informed us, “We have prepared the car you reserved.” Kim Jun-ho’s wife got angry and asked, “Did you change the car?” In response, Kim Jun-ho said, “It’s not my car, it’s his car.” When his wife found out that it was a surprise gift from Kim Jun-ho, she was delighted and said, “It’s my car?” Kim Jun-ho said, "Now, when I'm not around, Eun-woo and Eun-dong take me on a ride. Don't I ride around with my father-in-law and mother-in-law?" My wife expressed her joy by saying, “Why did you do that?”

Kim Jun-ho said, "Eun-woo had to go to daycare and Eun-dong was born, so I thought it would be nice to have a bigger car. So I applied in advance last year." The wife said, "When we were dating, neither of us had a car. It was difficult because we were in a long-distance relationship, so I wanted to see her for an extra hour, so I saved up my salary to buy a car. At that time, my husband thanked me and said he would repay me with something bigger if I win a gold medal later."

When Kim Jun-ho's wife was worried that she "didn't buy it too much," she jokingly said, "I have to go deliver milk at dawn now," making her laugh.
