[Asia Economy Reporter Kang Hyesoo] On the 9th, SBS's 'Master in the House' featured actor Kim Namgil as the new master, spreading his special love for walking.

In the broadcast, Kim Namgil showed his energetic charm from the moment he appeared, displaying the passionate vibe of a dedicated priest. Kim Namgil said, "Master in the House itself is burdensome," and created a relaxed atmosphere by suggesting they hang out like an orientation for the new semester. He then took out a schedule he made himself and shared the itinerary with the members. He stated that the first rule is to walk a lot, expressing his unique passion for walking.

He also mentioned that he recently joined the walking school run by Ha Jungwoo, with whom he filmed the movie 'Closet.' He explained that the school requires walking at least 10,000 steps a day and evaluates participants based on their step count.

He went on to talk about the nonprofit organization 'Gil Story' that he operates. The cultural arts NGO Gil Story carries meanings such as paths historically taken and paths to be taken, aiming to awaken these meanings once again. He added that when he said he runs a civic group, people misunderstand him as a good person, but while he strives to be a good person, he is not necessarily a kind person.

In particular, Kim Namgil showed enthusiasm by setting a rule to avoid using mobile phones and to make decisions together. Afterwards, during a walk along the trail, he played games, wore nostalgic school uniforms, and took photos, creating memories with Shin Sangseung brothers on the road.
