Actor Choi Bul-am reflected on the personal life and acting career hidden behind the title of "National Father," delivering a profound resonance to viewers.
In the second episode of the MBC Family Month special documentary 'Paha, This Is Choi Bul-am,' which aired on the 12th, actor Park Sang-won served as the presenter, highlighting the life journey and path of solace that Choi Bul-am has walked.
Park Sang-won said, "The name Choi Bul-am represents the image of a father closest to us," referencing the symbolism he built through the drama 'All in the Family.'

The broadcast featured interviews with fellow actors who have maintained a long-standing connection with Choi Bul-am.
Go Du-sim, who played the daughter-in-law alongside Choi Bul-am for 22 years in 'All in the Family,' recalled, "When you hear Choi Bul-am, even if he sits in the corner, a rough father immediately comes to mind," and added, "He was someone who seemed like he would listen to everything."
Chae Shi-ra stated, "We filmed a short scene together as father and daughter, and I am grateful that he readily became a father," while actor Yoo Jin also recalled his warm energy, saying, "It is hard to believe that 20 years have passed; he felt so kind and like someone who embraces everything."

Especially on this broadcast, Choi Bul-am's family history was also revealed. Choi Bul-am's father passed away when he was 8 years old, and Choi Bul-am reminisced, "I never spent time with my father. My father was known as the 'Shanghai Tiger.'"
Despite having almost no memories of his actual father, his intense efforts to portray the most typical and warm father figure in the media for decades were highlighted.
This documentary, which chronicles the life of Choi Bul-am who has lived under the name "National Father," provided viewers with an opportunity to once again reflect on the meaning of family and what true solace is.
