Viewers showed a variety of reactions to the 'Salim-haneun Namjadeul 2' (Men Who Do Housework 2) segment covering singer Hwanhee and his mother's life living together under one roof. Along with support for Hwanhee, comments included opinions that independent living is necessary even between parents and children, as well as impressions from viewers who enjoyed the mother-son conversations as entertainment.

The video from KBS's October 17 broadcast of 'Salim-haneun Namjadeul 2' was introduced under the title, '"Is this really how we should be living?" Hwanhee and his mother both suffer from insomnia after moving in together.'

In the comments, many viewers expressed empathy for the lives of parents and adult children living together. Viewers shared the view that even in close family relationships, respecting each other's lifestyles and personal space is important. Hwanhee and his mother's daily life became an opportunity to reflect on the distance and communication styles between family members.

Some viewers responded warmly to the mother-son conversations. Comments included, "It feels like a real mom, so I relate to it and find it fun," and "At this point, it's basically a sitcom." Another viewer shared, "They're so adorable. Lovely," adding, "Isn't this exactly the kind of tiki-taka between parent and child?"

Some expressed disappointment with the mother's manner of speaking. One viewer wrote, "I wish his mother would use kinder words." On the other hand, comments supporting the program and its cast also appeared, such as "Please just take entertainment shows as entertainment." Even regarding the same scenes, viewers offered different perspectives and interpretations.

Affectionate support for Hwanhee also continued. Viewers praised him, calling him "a kind and loving son" and saying, "The more I see him, the more pure and kind he seems. And cute too." Some also left comments such as "I support everything he does" and "There are far more fans cheering him on."

Notably, many reactions highlighted discovering a new charm of Hwanhee through his everyday appearance on the show. Having won love on stage with his deep emotion and compelling voice, he is now showing his natural side with his family on variety programs, connecting with viewers in a different way.

Some fans also expressed long-standing affection for his music career. One viewer recalled the days of listening to Hwanhee's songs every day, writing, "It brings back memories and moments from the past." Comments thanking him for his consistent album and concert activities or cheering on his new challenges were also posted. The fact that fans who remember the times spent with his songs are still following his new activities reflects his fans' steady devotion.

This fan devotion is also evident in the October Netizens' Awards standings. As of the afternoon of the 21st, Hwanhee ranks second in the Neostar category of the October Netizens' Awards, and seventh in the Global Netizens' Awards Neostar category. He is competing at the top of the domestic standings while also ranking in the global category, drawing fans' attention.

With the competition for the top spots continuing, how fans' support in the remaining period will affect the rankings is another point of interest. Attention is focused on what results Hwanhee—combining the emotional resonance built through his music with the approachable charm shown on variety shows—will achieve in the remaining October awards schedule following his candid daily life revealed on 'Salim-haneun Namjadeul 2.'
