'Kkoko-mu' covers the story of Jeon Je-wan, founder of Freechal, who created a first-generation venture myth and made a mark on South Korea's IT industry.

The episode airing on the 17th on SBS's 'Story of That Day with Tail to Tail' (directed by Ahn Yu-tae, Lee Keun-byul, Moon Chi-young, hereinafter 'Kkoko-mu') is titled "Reply, Freedom and Challenge!" H.O.T. member Tony An, actress Han So-eun, and comedian Kim Hyo-jin appear as listeners to recount the dynamic moments that set South Korea's IT infancy ablaze with passion.

Among them, Freechal founder Jeon Je-wan is currently working as a cabin cleaner, delivering a shock. Revealed for the first time through 'Kkoko-mu', Jeon Je-wan calmly stated, "Cleaning is my current major," surprising everyone. It is reported that throughout the interview, he repeatedly said, "It was because my skills were lacking," confessing his honest feelings of letting go of the glamour of past days.

Freechal, founded by Jeon Je-wan, was a 'national' platform that shook South Korea in the 1990s with 10 million members and 1.1 million communities. At the time, Jeon Je-wan, formerly of Samsung Mulsan, gathered top talents of the era such as former Kakao co-representative Cho Su-yong to build a Silicon Valley-style organization, ushering in the hottest Renaissance in South Korea's IT history. Impressed by Jeon Je-wan's bold moves, Tony An remarked, "Jeon Je-wan reminds me of Liu Bei from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms," marveling at his unparalleled talent recruitment ability and the early venture myth that changed the world.

Through 'Kkoko-mu', it will be revealed what events have transpired for Jeon Je-wan, who has started living a completely different life as a cabin cleaner after stepping down from the top. Airing at 10:20 p.m. on the 17th.
