On the 29th episode of KBS 2TV's "Men Who Do Housework Season 2" (hereinafter "Men Who Do Housework"), Park Seo-jin closely managed the health of his father, whose brain health showed warning signs. Park Seo-jin's father declared to his family that he would not undergo life-sustaining treatment, and this scene recorded the highest viewership rating of the day at 5.6% nationwide according to Nielsen Korea. The overall broadcast rating was 3.9%.

After finishing his overseas schedule, Park Seo-jin immediately went down to Samcheonpo to exercise with his family and focus on his father's health management. During this process, Lee Yo-won revealed her secret to maintaining her weight, saying, "I don't eat more when I'm full." She said she currently maintains a weight of 47 to 48 kg. Park Seo-jin's mother prepared a low-sodium healthy meal for her husband's health.

Park Seo-jin emphasized low-sodium diet and exercise out of concern for his father's health. His father said, "Don't give me life-sustaining treatment when I am about to pass away," and Park Seo-jin burst into tears, saying, "Why are you already giving up and talking like someone who is going to die?" He confessed, "If Dad is not here, life will lose its joy. My willpower will break." His father said, "Life-sustaining treatment is painful for both the children and myself," and added, "When I leave, I hope my children live just as they are now."

Park Seo-jin showed a closer relationship with his father by going to the market with his family, picking out clothes for his father, and holding his hand. After returning home, they spent time decorating the Christmas tree in Christmas outfits. He wrote a letter to himself 10 years later and put it in a time capsule, but his mother also put his father's cigarettes inside, which angered his father.

On this day's broadcast, Minju, the MC of "Music Bank" and a member of I-LIT, appeared as a special guest. Lee Yo-won recalled her days as a VJ on music programs, saying her energy was different when she was 19 years old.

Before the "Men Who Do Housework" studio recording, Ji Sang-ryeol had a talk with MC Lee Yo-won, Eun Ji-won, and Park Seo-jin at the KBS cafeteria. Eun Ji-won advised about marriage, saying, "The second time is better. The first time, you don't know much." He said life became easier after marriage and expressed satisfaction with his newlywed life, saying, "It feels like living in a hotel." Lee Yo-won advised Ji Sang-ryeol, "Don't get sick. Get plenty of insurance." She also spoke about Shin Bo-ram, a show host 16 years younger, saying, "Do it while there are women who like you now. You should be grateful just for someone liking you."

Ji Sang-ryeol said he is "getting along warmly and well" with Shin Bo-ram but added, "It's awkward to say we are dating." The cast supported Ji Sang-ryeol's marriage.

Ji Sang-ryeol and his sister-in-law visited a shaman to check their marriage luck and New Year fortune. The shaman pointed out that Ji Sang-ryeol was not fully prepared, saying, "You don't have the heart to get married, do you?" The proposal and ring were predicted to appear after June next year. However, there will be trials at the end of this year and early next year, warning of a "knife versus knife" situation. The shaman advised, "Ultimately, the woman must win for a good ending."

The shaman said Ji Sang-ryeol and his sister-in-law are a perfect match and emphasized the need for health management, noting that children are precious. The shaman predicted that Shin Bo-ram will have two children. When Ji Sang-ryeol said he dreamed of a big lion biting his arm, the shaman added, "It is a birth dream and a fortune that brings glory to your life."

The shaman also shared the fortunes of the "Men Who Do Housework" cast. About Lee Yo-won, the shaman said, "She is very smart. She is only showing 2-3% of her potential now." Eun Ji-won said he has undergone inner changes different from his twenties. When asked if he would live well after remarriage, the shaman predicted, "A child will come within 2-3 years." Regarding Park Seo-jin, the shaman said, "He is like a jewel. It is hard for him to become just one woman's man."

This episode combined family conflicts and filial piety arising from Park Seo-jin's father's refusal of life-sustaining treatment, Ji Sang-ryeol's marriage fortune, and the cast's realistic advice, eliciting empathy and laughter from viewers.

"Men Who Do Housework" airs every Saturday at 10:35 PM.
