Entertainer Kangnam shared a humorous tale of his struggles due to singer Kim Jae-joong's exemplary filial devotion.

On the episode of KBS 2TV's variety show 'Shopping King Louis' (henceforth 'Pyeonstorange'), aired on the 31st, Kangnam appeared as a special MC.

MC Boom remarked, "Kangnam is a loving husband. He completely accommodates his wife, and when he sees a certain look in her eyes, he immediately backs down," eliciting laughter. Kangnam agreed, adding, "She has an aura. When her aura changes, the atmosphere in the room shifts so much that even the dogs run to the second floor," which further amused the audience.

He then touched upon his friendship with Kim Jae-joong, confessing, "Honestly, it's quite uncomfortable because of Jae-joong hyung. Men like me have a hard time because of him," sparking curiosity.

It turns out, Kim Jae-joong is renowned for being an exceptionally filial son, to the point where Kangnam's mother tells him, "Live like Jae-joong every day." Boom chimed in with a jest, "Celebrity families shouldn't watch Jae-joong's VCRs."

Kangnam further elaborated, "My mom always talks about Jae-joong hyung. He's a good person, but watching him on broadcast makes me uncomfortable," filling the studio with laughter.

Netizens watching the broadcast commented, "It's hilarious that he's having a hard time because of his 'hyung' (older brother figure)," "Kim Jae-joong is truly a filial son," and "I want to live like Kangnam too," resonating with the humorous situation.
