On 'Happy Together,' the story of how writer Kim Eun-hee knelt on her knees for director Jang Hang-jun, known as a "million-director," to support his directorial debut is revealed.

KBS 2TV's variety show 'Happy Together - It's Good Not to Be Alone' (hereinafter 'Haetu') is a storytelling music audition where MC Yoo Jae-suk, who reads people; director Jang Hang-jun, who holds stories; and singer Yoon Jong-shin, who listens to music, lend their ears to the narratives and harmonies of various "life teammates."

In the episode airing on the afternoon of the 21st, the 'horn-rimmed trio' of Yoo Jae-suk, Jang Hang-jun, and Yoon Jong-shin will meet special MC Kwon Yu-ri from preliminary round Group C and Sung Si-kyung from preliminary round Group D as life teammates.

Among them, "million-director" Jang Hang-jun draws attention by naming his wife, writer Kim Eun-hee, as the benefactor of his film directorial debut. The recollection of Jang's obscure days was triggered by a contestant's concern about their dream. Director Jang said, "I also spent several years preparing to be a director," expressing empathy, then revealed an extraordinary act of support: "My father told me to quit, but Kim Eun-hee knelt and persuaded him, saying, 'Father, our husband will definitely become a film director. Please believe in us for just one year.'"

Ultimately, with writer Kim's full support, Jang was able to realize his dream of becoming a million-director within a few years of his debut. While sharing this, Director Jang offered advice on how to achieve dreams: "I highly recommend marriage. It's not bad if your wife earns money," proudly displaying the traits of an 'Eun-hee spoon' and causing bursts of laughter.

Meanwhile, Director Jang Hang-jun also drew attention by revealing his recent activities alongside a giant in the film industry. When Yoon Jong-shin commented on how difficult it has become for his close friend to even have a meal, Director Jang cheerfully boasted, "Today, I'm having afternoon drinks with director Bong Joon-ho."

Yoo Jae-suk chimed in, saying, "It's a meeting of two giants," prompting Director Jang to eagerly add, "Director Bong Joon-ho told me he has something important to discuss with me. Having two people drink during the day is not easy," earning a sharp glance from his close friend Yoon Jong-shin. However, this lasted only briefly; it is reported that Director Jang, known as 'Gakmok,' then made light of the situation by saying, "Instead, I'll leave 30 minutes early and wait," turning the scene into a sea of laughter.

Expectations for the actual broadcast of 'Haetu' soar vertically to see how the genuine chemistry between "million-director" Jang Hang-jun, Yoo Jae-suk, Yoon Jong-shin, and special MC Sung Si-kyung will unfold. 'Haetu' airs every Friday at 8:30 p.m.
