'The Return of Superman' Yeonwoo X Song Hae's Special Meeting, Viewers Moved by Friendship Spanning 87 Years

[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kim Seul-gi] Do Yeon-woo, son of announcer Do Kyung-wan, touched viewers with a special meeting with Song Hae.

On the 5th, KBS2's 'The Return of Superman' (Superman) showed Do Kyung-wan inviting his children to his workplace, KBS.

Yeon-woo, who was usually a 'mommy's boy,' was amazed by Do Kyung-wan's demeanor as an 11-year veteran announcer. Watching Do Kyung-wan conduct the live 5-minute news, Yeon-woo said, "Right now, (Dad) seems a little cooler than (Mom)."

Next, the Doppleganger family (the nickname for the Do Kyung-wan family) visited the 'Gayo Stage' studio, frequently visited by their mother Jang Yoon-jung. There, a special meeting with national MC Song Hae was arranged. Song Hae, who is known to cherish Jang Yoon-jung, greeted Do Kyung-wan and the two siblings (Yeon-woo and Ha-young) with a smile.

Song Hae showed interest in Yeon-woo's well-known trot singing skills, and Yeon-woo got the chance to sing in front of Song Hae. That day, Yeon-woo chose to sing "What’s Wrong With My Age." Watching the confident 7-year-old Yeon-woo complete the song without hesitation in front of 94-year-old Song Hae moved viewers deeply.

Song Hae joked to Yeon-woo, "Next time we meet, don’t call me grandpa, call me hyung-nim (older brother)," and Yeon-woo immediately replied, "Hyung-nim, how old are you?" which brought laughter.

Finally, Yeon-woo greeted Song Hae, saying, "Please don’t get sick and stay healthy," and Song Hae responded, "Let’s meet often." Since news had spread that Song Hae is currently hospitalized, Yeon-woo’s words resonated even more with viewers.

On the 1st, it was reported that Song Hae was hospitalized due to flu symptoms and missed programs such as 'National Singing Contest.' Netizens who heard about Song Hae’s hospitalization sent messages wishing for his speedy recovery.

Meanwhile, Song Hae debuted in 1955 with the 'Chang-gong Opera Troupe' and has been hosting KBS1's 'National Singing Contest' since 1988.
