[Asia Economy Reporter Kang Hyesoo] Actor Kim Namgil drew attention by delivering school supplies to 441 students and donating his entire appearance fee.


On the afternoon of the 16th, SBS's 'Master in the House' aired a segment showing passionate master Kim Namgil spending a day with the Shin Sangseung brothers. After walking all day, Kim Namgil and the members arrived at a comic book cafe and played games with lunch at stake. Thanks to Lee Seunggi's performance, the members succeeded in earning lunch and then headed to the badminton court.


Since the number recorded on the pedometer determined how many school supplies could be donated to students, Kim Namgil and the members split into teams and played badminton matches. Through this game, the members recorded a total of 53,952 steps, allowing them to donate that amount of supplies to the students.


Afterwards, Kim Namgil and the members headed to a hanok guesthouse set up in Bukchon. Yang Sehyung and Yook Sungjae made daepae samgyeop ramen, impressing everyone. The members finished a satisfying meal amid praise that it felt like eating gourmet food and then lifted the mood by enjoying the karaoke machine provided at the accommodation.


In particular, Kim Namgil's explosive tension and energy in performing songs from various genres left not only the Shin Sangseung brothers but also the production staff amazed.

Finally, the production team proposed a marathon. According to Kim Namgil's wish, if they completed it within 10 minutes, the number of steps would be tripled. Although the marathon course was filled with unique obstacles, Kim Namgil and the Shin Sangseung brothers struggled but achieved the goal of finishing within 10 minutes, thinking they could donate more.


Eventually, being able to donate to 441 students made the members feel proud. Especially, the warmth doubled when Kim Namgil expressed his intention to donate his entire appearance fee to the production team after filming.



The eccentric master and the youth's shared life lessons, SBS's 'Master in the House,' airs every Sunday at 6:25 PM.
