Singer Hwanhee gave his mother a special day together with his cousin Lee Jang-woo.

On the episode of KBS 2TV's 'Salimhapneun Namdeul Season 2' (The Men Who Live to Work Season 2) that aired on the 15th, Hwanhee and Lee Jang-woo were shown taking their mother out for the day. The three spent time together on an outing and cooking, blending laughter with heartfelt family stories.

◆ Hwanhee Feels Slighted by His Mother's Affectionate Treatment of Lee Jang-woo

That day, Hwanhee visited his mother's house and looked flustered to find Lee Jang-woo already there. When his mother, who usually would not readily open the door for him, warmly welcomed Lee Jang-woo and even personally prepared fruit for him, Hwanhee showed a subtle hint of jealousy.

Lee Jang-woo's attentive behavior continued during the outing itself. He seated his mother in the front passenger seat so she could travel comfortably and naturally looked after her surroundings. When his mother handed Lee Jang-woo a snack in the car, Hwanhee expressed his hurt feelings by asking for one too, sending the scene into laughter.

◆ Outing to a Hydrangea Park... Jokes of 'I Should Swap Sons' Draw Laughs

The three headed to a park in full bloom with hydrangeas. Lee Jang-woo showed his meticulous side by preparing a parasol, a handheld fan, and cold water in advance for the hot weather. When Hwanhee, watching Lee Jang-woo's thorough preparations, said there was nothing left for him to do, their mother joked that she should swap sons, adding more laughter.

The mood stayed cheerful during the photo session. Unlike when taking photos with Hwanhee, the mother was captured smiling especially brightly next to Lee Jang-woo, and Hwanhee once again reacted as if hurt, adding to the fun.

◆ Taking on Abalone Cooking at a Glamping Site... Mother Delighted

Afterwards, the three moved to a glamping site to make more memories. The meal centered around abalone that Lee Jang-woo had prepared, and Hwanhee also joined in cooking for his mother. Hwanhee learned from Lee Jang-woo step by step, from how to clean abalone to making a vinegar-based side dish, helping with the cooking.

Having tasted the food the two made together, the mother said it was delicious and expressed her satisfaction, also sharing that she was enjoying the day. Hwanhee was pleased to see his mother looking more relaxed and brighter than during previous family trips. The day carried added meaning in that it went beyond a simple outing, confirming that his mother was genuinely having fun.

◆ Remembering Their Late Grandmother... 'Few Days Have Been as Happy as This One'

After the meal, deeper conversations about family followed. The three shared memories of their late grandmother and exchanged feelings they had not easily expressed before. The mother expressed her gratitude for the day the two had prepared for her, conveying that there had been few days as happy as this one.

Hwanhee also said that going forward, he wants to share new experiences his mother has never had and create more memories together. In particular, he revealed a plan to prepare a so-called 'Hwanhee Tour' around October or November in which the whole family could participate. With another family event previewed following this outing, viewers' expectations have risen as well.

◆ Who Is Hwanhee... Debuted with Fly to the Sky in 1999

Hwanhee debuted in the music industry in 1999 as part of the male duo Fly to the Sky and has been consistently active with his distinctive vocal tone and singing ability. Recently, he has expanded his range by taking on trot music beyond his usual ballad territory. Through 'Salimhapneun Namdeul Season 2,' he is showing a different charm by revealing not only his side as a singer but also his daily life with family and his honest emotions.

Meanwhile, KBS 2TV's 'Salimhapneun Namdeul Season 2' airs every Saturday at 9:20 p.m.
