[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kim Sung-yeol] Go player Han Hae-won expressed her gratitude to her husband Kim Hak-do on 'Morning Yard,' saying, "He is a husband worth 20,000 points."
On the morning of the 21st, the KBS1 educational program 'Morning Yard' featured the segment 'Tuesday Invitation,' where the couple with a 12-year age difference, professional Go player Han Hae-won and comedian Kim Hak-do, appeared.
During the broadcast, Kim Hak-do said, "Our couple has something different from other couples," adding, "Because my wife works a lot, if I don't take care of the children, no one else can."
Han Hae-won said, "This is a great strength of Kim Hak-do," and added, "Usually, fathers ask how to take their children when going on business trips, and they travel alone to relax, but Kim Hak-do always takes care of the children."
She continued, "When we got married, he hardly helped with housework, so I thought I had made a blunder in my life," but "He plays very well with our three children and actively helps whenever something happens, so I want to give him 20,000 points for that. I think that's pretty good."
In response, Kim Hak-do said, "There was a patriarchal mindset that men shouldn't enter the kitchen," and "At that time, I said on a broadcast, 'Why should men do the dishes?' and received all kinds of malicious comments. I realized I shouldn't live like that, so I worked hard on housework."
