Marathon runner Hwang Young-jo will personally support the half marathon challenge of Park Seo-jin, Ahn Sung-hoon, Shin Seung-tae, and Jae-ha on-site in the KBS2 variety show 'Salim-deuneun Namdeul Season 2' (The Househusbands).

Previously, the four completed a 10km marathon and then took on a half marathon. While they were preparing for the race at Yeouido Park, Hwang Young-jo appeared without notice to cheer them on.

As their running mentor, Hwang Young-jo guided them through stretching to prevent injuries and then ran alongside them for the first 3km of the race, acting as a pacemaker. Before the race began, he emphasized, "Don't think about your record and just run safely no matter what. Never overexert yourselves or get greedy."

During the race, when the four appeared overexcited due to the influence of other participants, Hwang Young-jo advised, "Don't get swept up in the atmosphere of the competition. It gets hard after just 10km. Don't get excited and stay composed." Park Seo-jin, on an uphill stretch, kept his stride short as Hwang Young-jo advised and ran steadily, and Hwang Young-jo evaluated that Park Seo-jin's running skills had greatly improved.

Upon reaching the promised 3km mark, Hwang Young-jo said goodbye, telling them, "Keep focusing on controlling your pace until the end, and walk if it gets too hard." Afterward, Park Seo-jin, Ahn Sung-hoon, Shin Seung-tae, and Jae-ha continued the race at their own pace, and Hwang Young-jo waited for them in the latter part of the marathon to check on their condition.

Park Seo-jin's crew's half marathon challenge will be revealed in episode 479 of 'Salim-deuneun Namdeul,' airing on the 24th at 10:35 p.m.

Meanwhile, the episode of 'Salim-deuneun Namdeul' that aired on the 17th recorded a peak rating of 4.8% nationwide, according to Nielsen Korea.
