Jin Seon-kyu and Park Bo-kyung to appear together on MBC variety show
The MBC variety show 'Where Is My Home' will feature actors Jin Seon-kyu and Park Bo-kyung, appearing together for the first time, as they search for award-winning houses in Daehangno.
Actors Jin Seon-kyu and Park Bo-kyung will make their first variety show appearance as a couple on the MBC program 'Where Is My Home' this Thursday, the 5th, as they explore a remodeled 40-year-old commercial-residential house in Ihwa-dong.
In the episode of MBC's 'Where Is My Home' (directed by Jung Da-hee, Nam Yu-jeong, Jang Hyo-jong, and Kim Yu-jin) to be broadcast on Thursday the 5th, the cast will embark on an inspection of "award-winning houses."
The episode will feature a search for houses that look like works of art. The inspection will be conducted by "Blue Dragon Award-winning couple" actors Jin Seon-kyu and Park Bo-kyung, alongside Yang Se-chan and Joo Woo-jae. This marks the first time the couple, Jin Seon-kyu and Park Bo-kyung, will appear together on a variety show. Attention is focused on the realistic chemistry between the affectionate husband Jin Seon-kyu and his wife Park Bo-kyung, who possesses calm charisma.
The four will head to Daehangno, where the romance between Jin Seon-kyu and Park Bo-kyung first began. While there, Jin Seon-kyu will have a joyful reunion with the teacher who taught him Japanese for his role as Sato Shinichi, the Administrative Vice Minister of the Government-General of Korea, in the drama '100 Days of Deception.' It is reported that his highly acclaimed Japanese acting was the result of intensive training during a two-month stay in Japan. Further interest is added as he reveals an unexpected person he referenced while preparing for the role.
Meanwhile, Park Bo-kyung reminisces about a day she visited Daehangno while holding her eldest child. She noted that people around her were surprised to see the child, saying, "Oh? It's Jin Seon-kyu!" even though he was not by her side. Upon seeing photos of their children, Kim Sook remarked that there are "three Jin Seon-kyus," bringing laughter to the set.
The first location they visit is a commercial-residential house in Ihwa-dong, Jongno-gu, near Daehangno, which holds memories for the couple. This house, a 40-year-old old building that was purchased and completely remodeled, features a structure where the owner operates a cafe on the 1st floor and maintains residential spaces on the 3rd and 4th floors. It is characterized by a "work-live integrated" structure where the workplace and residence are in one building. The European-style interior filling the house also draws attention. Looking around the kitchen, Yang Se-chan expressed admiration, saying, "This feels like a place where pasta topped with arugula would suit better than kimchi stew." Expectations are high to see the full appearance of this European-style house hidden in the alleys of Daehangno.
While touring the commercial-residential house next to Daehangno, Jin Seon-kyu and Park Bo-kyung discuss their children. Seeing a room door that does not lock from the inside, Jin Seon-kyu gives a realistic fatherly reaction, saying, "This will be good for the kids during their puberty." He further reveals his side as a "daughter-fool" father, expressing disappointment that his daughter has started showing affection only to her mother, Park Bo-kyung, at certain times.
The "award-winning house" episode of MBC's 'Where Is My Home' will air on Thursday the 5th at 10 PM.
