In a heartwarming episode of KBS2's 'The Return of Superman' aired on the 22nd, viewers witnessed the touching adventures of families fulfilling their bucket lists. The episode, titled 'Dad's Bucket List,' featured MCs Kim Jong-min and Lalal.

Kim Jun-ho, along with his sons Eun-woo and Jung-woo, his father, and his 84-year-old great-grandmother, embarked on a memorable trip to Taiwan. Kim Jun-ho expressed his desire to create happy memories for his great-grandmother, who had enjoyed a previous trip to Japan. The great-grandmother, filled with excitement, studied the local language on the plane, expressing her joy at experiencing such luxury.

Their first stop was a Michelin-starred restaurant in Taiwan, where Jung-woo fearlessly devoured chicken heads, much to the amusement of his grandfather, who suggested ordering more for the enthusiastic eater.

The 'Woo Brothers,' Eun-woo and Jung-woo, earned the title of devoted grandsons. Eun-woo took care of the great-grandmother's meal, while Jung-woo attentively ensured her happiness. When the great-grandmother mentioned it was her first time on a cruise in 60 years, Jung-woo sternly asked his grandfather to treat her well, bringing smiles to viewers. Jung-woo's sweet gesture of blowing on his great-grandmother's shoulder, which had recently undergone surgery, touched hearts. The great-grandmother was moved to tears, expressing her joy at the family trip.

Meanwhile, Shim Hyung-tak achieved a long-held dream by climbing Bulamsan's Aegibong Peak with his son Haru. Reflecting on his past struggles, Shim shared how the mountain had been a source of strength during his challenging days. He expressed his happiness at sharing this special moment with Haru and looked forward to future adventures, including a potential climb of Everest's Aegibong.

Haru showcased his growth by munching on cucumbers and building a wish stone tower at Aegibong. His clear speech and playful antics, like sneaking strawberries into his mouth, delighted viewers and brought smiles to their faces.
