KBS2 ‘The Return of Superman’

Comedian Son Min-su set up a Samshin table for his twin boy and girl.

On the KBS2 ‘The Return of Superman’ (hereinafter ‘Shudol’) broadcast on the 4th, the twin boy and girl of the couple Son Min-su and Im Rara, Kang-i and Dan-i, appeared.

That day, to mark the twins reaching samchilil, the twenty-first day after birth, Son Min-su personally prepared the Samshin table. After fully setting the table while the children slept, he offered two bows, saying, “Respected Samshin Grandmother, thank you for giving our family these precious children. Please heap up long lifespans and connect the short so they may enjoy longevity, and like pouring water in the monsoon and like the crescent moon swelling, let them grow vigorously without any mishap.”

Next, after holding each of the children by the foot once, Son Min-su stepped away. Watching the living room where the babies were via a home camera from the bedroom, he witnessed a startling moment. Kang-i and Dan-i were captured looking in the same direction and seeming to offer a greeting, as if the Samshin Grandmother had come, which evoked wonder.

MCs Kim Jong-min and Lala, who were watching, also could not hide their astonishment, saying, “They are looking at the same place. It is empty air. Did the Samshin Grandmother come?” Afterward, Son Min-su returned to the living room and concluded the rite by eating all the food arranged on the Samshin table.

After the broadcast, online commenters reacted, “While watching the show, I thought, ‘Who would do something like this?’ but seeing it in fact is amazing,” “They really are both staring at exactly the same spot,” and “Such adorable twins.”
