Singer Park Seo-jin joins her younger sister in a "historical running" event to mark Liberation Day.

According to the production team of KBS 2TV's variety show "Men Who Cook Season 2" ('Salimnam') on the 14th, an episode airing on the 15th will feature Park Seo-jin and her sister Hyo-jeong taking on a challenge: running 8.15km along the footsteps of independence activists in what is dubbed "historical running."

Recently showing growing interest in history, Park Seo-jin will start from Tapgol Park, the starting point of the March 1st Movement, alongside historical storyteller Sun Kim. The siblings will run while tracing the paths of independence activists, learning about the intertwined histories at various locations, and later confront the actual cells and harsh conditions where independence activists were imprisoned at Seodaemun Prison.

Through this hands-on historical running—running, seeing, and learning—the stories of independence activists are expected to come vividly to life.

After completing the historical run, Park Seo-jin said, "I don't want to just learn history; I want to express my gratitude," and will visit a restaurant operated by descendants of national merit recipients to participate in "donjjolnaegi"—a challenge to eat food worth 815,000 won.

To achieve her goal, Park Seo-jin has enlisted special support from middle school wrestling team students who have joined the effort. Hyo-jeong, known as the "eating show fairy" for her exceptional appetite, also joins in. In an unexpected twist, Hyo-jeong even plans to go running again mid-meal to eat more, promising laughter. The episode airs on the 15th at 9:20 p.m.
