"She gave me about 200,000 to 300,000 won, which I shared with all the staff," he recalled. "While I regretted not keeping the money for myself at the time, her words as she held my hand while leaving, wishing me great success, remain a memorable moment."

Park Na-rae, visibly embarrassed by the revelation of this heartwarming story, responded modestly, "Who was I to do such a thing?" Yoon Nam-no added, "It was those grateful memories that led me to appear on this show," bringing a warm sentiment to the broadcast.
