The current situation of the real main characters of the drama "Our Beloved Summer", starring Choi Woo Shik and Kim Da Mi, has been reported.

In tvN's "You Quiz on the Block" broadcast on February 16th, the main character of the documentary that became the motif of SBS' "Our Beloved Summer" appeared as a guest.

Writer Lee Na Eun, who was in charge of the script for "Our Beloved Summer", said that she got the idea while watching the EBS documentary "Let's Live Like The Last Place Is First Place" while making the drama.

In the documentary that aired in 2015, the daily life of Kim Do Yoon, who ranked first in the entire school, and Eom Gyu Min, who was ranked last in the school, studying together for three months was depicted. 

The two people, who have opposite tendencies, aroused laughter by showing that they did not understand each other whenever they had a chance.

7 years have passed and the two are now 24 years old. His dignified appearance caught people's attention.

When asked about his current status, Kim Do Yoon said, "I went to medical school. I have to go to medical school for 6 years, and I am in the 3rd year of the main course, which is equivalent to 5 years".

Yoo Jae Seok looked at Kim Do Yoon and smiled, saying, "You feel like a typical doctor". 

Eom Gyu Min replied, "I prepared to study abroad right after filming the documentary, and I went to a Chinese university when I was 20", adding, "I am currently serving in the military."

Kim Do Yoon also explained about the opportunity to appear in the documentary, "EBS gives equal opportunities to all students across the country. EBS sent an official letter to about 20 schools across the country. Thankfully, they chose us in the midst of that".

Netizens who saw the broadcast showed reactions such as "It's really nice to see them" and "I hope the friendship between the two of you will last forever".

Former S.E.S member Shoo (Yoo Soo Young) warmed hearts as she shared a touching moment with her twin daughters—taking them to the same wholesale market where she once worked during a difficult time in her life.

On May 8, Shoo posted several photos on Instagram showing her spending time with her twin daughters, Ra Hee and Ra Yul, at the Dongdaemun wholesale market. In the caption, she wrote, “Did everyone enjoy the holiday? I feel like I made a memory I’ll never forget for the rest of my life.”

The photos showed Shoo and her daughters smiling brightly while eating and shopping together. Her daughters, now visibly grown up, were even seen wearing similar shoes and clothes as their mom.

Shoo opened up about a painful chapter in her past. “When I was struggling, I once sold clothes I got from Dongdaemun with the help of a friend,” she shared. “I used to go there from night to early morning, picking up fleece clothes, hairpins, and shoes, thinking, ‘My kids would love this if I brought them here.’”

Now that her daughters are older, Shoo finally fulfilled that dream. “We laughed so much while shopping. We bought hairpins, socks, and clothes together,” she said. “They’ve grown so much—they can even wear the same things as me.”

Reflecting on the experience, she added, “Memories of my past flashed before my eyes. I told them how I used to work late at night, carrying heavy bags and walking around for 10 hours straight.”

Shoo emotionally concluded, “I was so happy to show my kids the nighttime world I once worked in.”

Fans who remember Shoo’s twins from The Return of Superman were touched to see how much they’ve grown. Shoo, now a proud mom of three, continues to update fans through her TV appearances and social media, showing her strength as both a mother and former idol.
