[Asia Economy Online Issue Team] On the 19th, the MBC entertainment program 'Hojok Mate' featured singer DinDin spending time with his eldest sister.

DinDin, who appeared on MBC's 'Hojok Mate' that day with his eldest sister, explained the reason for appearing on the show together, saying, "Senior Lee Kyung-kyu was filming a video, so I felt uncomfortable staying in the studio."

He continued, "Since becoming adults, my eldest sister and I have never spent a long time together," adding, "The last time we were together was in middle school, second grade. Naturally, it's awkward."

DinDin, who is seven years younger than his sister, tried to contact his mother and second sister due to his anxiety. He also confessed, "(Thinking about being with my eldest sister) makes me feel suffocated. It's the biggest crisis in my broadcasting career."

DinDin's eldest sister, Im Ari, is currently working as a university professor. Im introduced herself, saying, "I was appointed recently," and "I'm a rookie professor teaching students at a university."

The two visited places they frequented during their childhood, such as a bakery, a flower shop, and a tteokbokki restaurant. DinDin also shared an anecdote about being scolded by a school teacher during his school days.

DinDin said, "I got hit for wearing slippers, and I got hit again for looking for the ball when I was told not to hit it. Isn't it supposed to be a time to kick the ball during PE class?" He expressed his frustration. In response, Im said, "Have you ever thought that you were wrong? We went to the same school, but I don't remember ever getting hit," which drew laughter from those around them.
