Jinu, a member of the hip-hop group JinuSean, revealed the reason he hardly engages in broadcasting activities.
In the episode of KBS2TV's entertainment show 'SalimNam2' aired on 28th, the couple Jinu, a singer, and Im Sara, a lawyer, made their first public appearance together after marriage. Im Sara, who captivated attention with her stunning beauty and articulate speech, introduced herself by saying, "I am Im Sara, Jinu's wife," and noted, "Due to financial difficulties, I took the high school equivalency exam, and since we weren't well-off, I guess I've lived hard."
Im Sara waited for her husband Jinu in front of the courthouse. Jinu, arriving in an imported car, casually handed over documents and solved his meal with seolleongtang. While his wife Im Sara spent her day managing work and self-care with a busy schedule, Jinu's daily routine was quite different.
Im Sara expressed her frustration, saying, "Even if my husband asks if it's possible for someone to remember and recognize him forever, he just doesn't do it." She further added, "Last time at the 2024 KBS Song Festival, he had the chance to perform with Jang Won-young, but he said he wouldn't do it," highlighting Jinu's leisurely attitude. She lamented, "It was even with Jang Won-young."
Im Sara said, "Jinu is called the sloth of the hip-hop world." Eun Ji-won, who knows Jinu from past acquaintances, expressed surprise at how Jinu is focusing on housework and parenting.
Im Sara mentioned, "Going on a show is also a grants contract. It's a mutual agreement, and I called my husband to check if he's doing well on the show," monitoring if he was effectively utilizing his content whenever she could.
However, Jinu prioritized taking care of the child. Their son, Kim Si-o, born when Jinu was 51 and Im Sara was 38, was a gift to the couple. Jinu said, "My son Si-o feels like my heart walking around. It's the greatest gift in the world," explaining with heartfelt words the significance of Si-o.
Reading fairy tales in English, putting the child to nap, arranging flowers after trimming, and serving meals, Jinu smoothly handled housework and parenting. Even Baek Ji-young exclaimed, "He’s the perfect house husband!" Eun Ji-won repeatedly expressed his amazement, saying, "It’s really amazing how Jinu hyung takes care of the child and manages the household."
However, Im Sara had different concerns. Worried about Jinu's health due to his diabetes, she hoped he would exercise and participate in social activities. Im Sara said, "Last time at the 2024 KBS Song Festival, there were comments saying, 'Jinu looks out of breath,' and I heard Sean is busy with his broadcast entertainment," referring to Sean's marathon entertainment.
Jinu expressed his displeasure, saying, "Why do you keep talking about Sean?" He stated, "I want to be with my child since we had him later. If I work, I have to leave him to someone else and get further away. Sara is busy too. I don’t like this," while Im Sara suggested, "Let’s take a step back from Si-o, from housework, and if we can use external help, let’s utilize it," trying to calm his paternal concerns.
