In the episode of 'Newly Released Menu', actor Nam Yoon-soo shed tears during a video call with his father, who received a kidney transplant from him six months ago.
In the broadcast aired on the 2nd on KBS2TV 'Newly Released Menu', another side of the rising hot guy Nam Yoon-soo was shown, depicting his sincere daily life as a 'filial son'.
On this day, Nam Yoon-soo reached the six-month mark since he donated his kidney to his father, who was suffering from end-stage renal disease. Fortunately, both his father and Nam Yoon-soo are recovering healthily.
During the broadcast, a video call with the recovering father was revealed. The father, with a brightened face on camera, looked at Nam Yoon-soo and said, 'Thanks to Yoon-soo, I feel like I will live a long time. I'm about to cry again.'
He smiled and said, 'I can't cry because I'm going to be on TV,' but his voice was already choked up. Later, in an interview with the production team, he expressed, 'I cried inside. I tried to brush it off,' revealing how deeply his father's words affected him.
With that thought, Nam Yoon-soo began preparing a 'filial son’s dining table' for his father. As the diet changes to a regular diet starting from the six-month mark, he wanted to provide healthy yet delicious meals. Worried that 'if he eats poorly, the kidney I donated could be damaged,' he diligently researched kidney-related information while preparing for cooking.
Later in the broadcast, the 'filial duty three-course meal' and a slow-aging health diet were unveiled, garnering significant interest from viewers.
