Han Ga-in ends up sobbing as she listens to the final words of a fighter pilot who died in the line of duty at the age of 29.

‘A country that remembers heroes, Elephant Photo Studio’ (hereinafter referred to as ‘Elephant Photo Studio’) is a program that highlights heroes in uniform who devoted themselves to the country and society. In 'Elephant Photo Studio', which airs today (28th), the hero's family comes to see him holding his pilot's uniform in his arms. The bereaved family of the late Major Shim Jeong-min, who became a star while protecting his country's skies as an Air Force F-5E fighter pilot, told the unforgettable story of that day, saying, "We decided to appear on the show in the hope that our son's righteous sacrifice would be remembered for a long time." I tell you.

On January 11, 2022, an Air Force F-5E fighter jet crashed into a hill in Gwanhang-ri, Jeongnam-myeon, Hwaseong-si due to an airframe defect. Although there was sufficient 'emergency escape' time of about 10 seconds at the time of the accident, the reason why Major Sim Jeong-min did not let go of the control until the last moment is revealed on the broadcast. On this day, the two MCs, Han Ga-in and Bae Seong-jae, shed tears after hearing the last moments of the young hero who chose to sacrifice himself to prevent damage to a private home.

Major Sim Jeong-min's eldest sister expressed her hope that her younger brother would be remembered as “a loving person who cherished the lives of the people just as he loved his own life.” In particular, Major Sim Jeong-min, who left a comment to his classmate 10 days before the accident, saying, “I am prepared to sacrifice myself to protect the lives of the people.” It is said that when his voice, the only one left to the bereaved family, was revealed, the entire filming site, including Han Ga-in and Bae Sung-jae, became a sea of tears.

Inspector Kim Jang-soo, 'Seoul City Hall's Ma Dong-seok', who closely resembles actor Ma Dong-seok, who played the tough-as-nails detective in the movie 'Crime City', appears to tell the story of a real crime team detective.

Inspector Kim Jang-soo, who worked as a detective in the violent crime team for 22 of his 25 years of police experience, picks the '22 middle school girl gang rape incident' that shocked the world in 2016 as the most unforgettable case. The entire investigation of Detective Kim Jang-soo, who brought to the surface a case that was almost buried in the dark through five years of persistence and will, is revealed. In addition, it is said that the two MCs, Han Ga-in and Bae Seong-jae, were immersed in the process of arresting the culprit of the 'Surak Mountain Murder Burial Case', which had several twists and turns, and the behind-the-scenes story of the case, which was more like a drama than a drama.

The fourth story of ‘A country that remembers heroes – Elephant Photo Studio’ will be released on Channel A at 8:10 pm on this day.
