In the KBS2 variety program "The Return of Superman," son Haru of Shim Hyung-tak is shown taking on Pyongyang cold noodles for the first time in his life.

Episode 632, airing on the 12th, is themed "Our Happiness Is Now." On this broadcast, MC Kim Jong-min and Lalal will appear, and the show will feature Haru choosing Pyongyang cold noodles among various noodle dishes.

During the broadcast, Haru tastes meat as an appetizer and then tries the cool cold noodle broth with a spoon first, expressing admiration. He then picks up the cold noodles from the bowl his father Shim Hyung-tak served him with a fork, enjoying them with both cheeks full. He also slurped the long noodles without hesitation, fully displaying his love for noodle dishes.

In particular, after watching his father serve the cold noodles, Haru takes matters into his own hands with a "self-refill," serving himself more noodles. Seeing this, Shim Hyung-tak could not hide his surprise, saying, "It's the first time I've seen Haru refill his own bowl."
