Park Seo-jin & Sister Hyojung's Hilarious 'Legal Battle' on 'Mr. House Husband' Achieves Peak Rating

Singer Park Seo-jin and his sister Hyojung brought laughter to viewers with their witty 'sibling war' on KBS 2TV's 'Mr. House Husband Season 2' (Mr. House Husband). The episode aired on the 6th, depicting a fierce courtroom-style dispute between the siblings over Hyojung's GED exam results. The show garnered a nationwide viewership rating of 4.8%, with the scene involving a bet on Hyojung's exam outcome reaching a peak of 6.1%, proving its continued popularity.

When Hyojung, who had taken the exam for the third time, hid her test papers, Park Seo-jin immediately sensed her failure. He quipped, "If she had attended school, she would have graduated by now." Hyojung expressed her anxiety, stating, "I worked hard, but I don't know the results." Park Seo-jin escalated the situation by threatening to remove her from the family registry if she failed again, leading them to a mock courtroom. There, they were met by Park Min-cheol, a veteran lawyer with 21 years of experience.

The sibling rivalry continued in front of the lawyer. Hyojung humorously declared, "If I pass, I'll remove you from the family registry and dig out your backside with a spoon!" However, her plan hit a snag when lawyer Park stated that removing someone from the family registry was impossible. Hyojung then triumphantly retorted, "Then I can only dig out your backside," much to everyone's amusement. The mood shifted when Park Seo-jin presented video evidence of Hyojung's physical aggression, leading the lawyer to mention the possibility of a fine. Hyojung defiantly responded, "Imprison me. I have nothing to lose."

Further escalating the argument, Hyojung brought up Park Seo-jin's past unrequited crush on her English tutor as evidence of his wrongdoing. Park Seo-jin countered that it was her own embarrassing situation, but Hyojung argued that her heartbreak had boosted his popularity. He retorted that viewership ratings dropped when she was rejected, showcasing their legendary back-and-forth banter. Lawyer Park skillfully diffused the tension by remarking that siblings who bicker like this often have the strongest bonds, before proceeding to check Hyojung's exam.

As the results of the final subject, English, were revealed – an astonishing jump from 28 to 72 points – the studio erupted in shock and cheers. Park Seo-jin, overwhelmed with emotion, expressed his pride and relief, saying, "I feel indescribable emotions. I'm proud of her effort. She's not middle school graduate anymore, but a high school graduate. Thank goodness. I wanted to applaud her." The broadcast left viewers with a warm feeling, highlighting the deep sibling bond beneath the playful arguments.

Park Seo-jin debuted as a trot singer in 2017 with the single 'Cheonyeo Balsaeng'. He gained recognition through the documentary series 'Human Theater' and is beloved for his powerful vocals and stage presence.
