MBC's Family Month special two-part documentary "Paha, This is Choi Bul-am," which has drawn attention with the return of actor Choi Bul-am, "Father of the Nation," will air on the nights of May 5 and the 12th at 9 p.m.

The special documentary "Paha, This is Choi Bul-am" is a documentary that revisits actor Choi Bul-am's life and acting career with music alongside a DJ host. The newly released second teaser video features heartwarming stories of the "human Choi Bul-am" that many were unaware of, as well as his efforts in sharing and giving, raising expectations for the main broadcast.

Actor Choi Bul-am has portrayed the most ideal and warm father of our era in countless works. However, he reveals a heartbreaking story: "I parted from my father early in my childhood, so I actually have few experiences and memories of my father." How did he, who grew up with the sense of loss from his father's absence, become the "Father of the Nation" who moved the hearts of all Koreans? The story of actor Choi Bul-am, who filled that void, will be confirmed through the main broadcast on the 5th.

In this documentary, Choi Bul-am's long-standing acts of kindness are also highlighted. Actor Choi Bul-am has participated in various special programs, including the special live broadcast for finding lost children, "Mom and Dad, I'm Right Here," and the charity project for children, "Giving New Life to Children." Why is he so active in stories about children? His sincerity will be explored in greater depth through this special documentary.

The released official poster evokes nostalgia for the past through analog props such as turntables and cassette players. Most notably, actor Park Sang-won, who played Choi Bul-am's eldest son in the drama "You and I" and received national love, has joined as a presenter, drawing attention to the special bond between the two who have met again outside the drama. In addition, familiar faces such as actors Baek Il-seop, Park Won-sook, Lee Gye-in, Lee Kyung-jin, Lee Hong-ryul, Im Ho, and Yoo Jin are expected to further warm the meaning of May, Family Month, with their stories about actor Choi Bul-am.

Meanwhile, the special documentary "Paha, This is Choi Bul-am" is directed by PD Yang Jeong-heon, who produced last year's MBC 80th Anniversary Special Project "Model Prison." The special project "Model Prison" won the "Experimental Spirit Award" at the 38th Korea PD Awards held on the 24th with its innovative direction that combined documentary and musical elements. This special documentary "Paha, This is Choi Bul-am" is also expected to garner anticipation as it is produced in a novel radio format that revisits actor Choi Bul-am's life and acting world through music.
