It was revealed that Park Sung-woong is a resident of Daechi-dong. Yoo Jae-suk candidly admitted, "I thought Lee Sang-yoon, who graduated from Seoul National University, was from Daechi-dong," to which Lee Sang-yoon replied, "I was from Yeouido."

Park Sung-woong and Lee Sang-yoon showcased their close friendship, which blossomed after starring in the movie 'Okay Madam.'

He also shared, "My son is 17, but he still kisses me goodbye when I leave for work. We both find it a bit awkward, but I'm grateful."

When Yoo Yeon-seok commented, "When you answer the phone, it turns into a noir," Park Sung-woong humorously replied, "I didn't kill anyone last year. I'm currently filming a character who has returned to farming."

When asked about his 'real thoughts on returning to farming,' Park Sung-woong stated, "I have no such plans," and Yoo Jae-suk also emphasized, "Not at all." Lee Sang-yoon admitted, "Farming is nice, but I dislike bugs."

Yoo Jae-suk, agreeing, said, "I hate mosquitoes and mayflies," to which Lee Sang-yoon teased, "But your nickname is Grasshopper." Yoo Jae-suk humorously responded, "It's been years since we've seen each other, and you're already making mistakes?" causing laughter.

Park Sung-woong and Yoo Jae-suk, who are the same age, were once part of the same baseball team. Yoo Jae-suk, who played baseball in his 30s, revealed, "I retired after getting married. It wasn't easy to go out." In contrast, Park Sung-woong continued to be active, even becoming the team manager.
