Korean singer Kim Jung-min and his wife, Rumiko, sparked laughter and surprise on the tvN STORY show 'Each House Couple.' During the broadcast, Rumiko, after witnessing actress Moon So-ri's touching bond with her mother, expressed a strong desire for a daughter. This prompted Kim Jung-min to playfully suggest having a fourth child.

The episode featured the lives of Moon So-ri and her mother, Lee Hyang-ran, a senior model and actress over 70. Lee Hyang-ran shared poignant memories of her life, including financial struggles and sacrifices made for her family. She recalled having to abandon her studies to support younger siblings and facing heartbreak when a business she started had to close due to her son.

Moon So-ri empathized deeply with her mother's experiences, quoting a line about shared life and dreams to illustrate her understanding. This heartfelt exchange moved Rumiko, who then voiced her longing for a daughter.

Witnessing Moon So-ri styling her mother, Rumiko turned to Kim Jung-min and asked, 'Wouldn't it be wonderful to have just one daughter?' and 'Should we really have another child?' Approaching his 60s, Kim Jung-min playfully responded, 'Should we really have another daughter?' However, fellow panelist Park Myung-soo quickly intervened, humorously warning them to keep such discussions private, eliciting laughter from everyone.

Kim Jung-min debuted in 1994 with the hit song 'The Last Love' and quickly became one of the most beloved ballad singers of the 90s in Korea. His emotional delivery and vocal talent cemented his status as a prominent figure in the music industry. In recent years, he has expanded his career into broadcasting, appearing on various variety shows.
