A rival of ‘Heo Jun’ Jeon Kwang-ryeol appears in ‘Healing Mountain Lodge 2’. The main character is Dongwan Kim, a self-proclaimed ‘oriental medicine believer’ who dreams of becoming the ‘second Jun Heo’.

Jeon Kwang-ryeol’s human variety ‘Healing Mountain Lodge – Line Up Season 2’, which is a collaboration between B tv cable ‘My Neighborhood B tv’ and Channel S, released stills of Kim Dong-wan, the first guest of the 9th episode aired on Wednesday, the 8th. .

This week’s ‘Healing Sanctuary 2’ was held in Yeongjongdo, Incheon, which caused excitement just by looking at it. The clue of the guest who made a reservation for ‘Healing Lodge’ was ‘the men who left Seoul’, and the keyword for the first guest was ‘Heo Jun’s rival’.

The identity of ‘Heo Jun’s Rival’ was Kim Dong-wan of Shinhwa, the longest-running idol group in Korea. Kim Dong-wan said, “Kim Jun, who dreams of becoming the second Heo Jun.” He made and delivered a welcome drink, one of his dietary regimens, on site, and even prepared a meaningful book as a gift.

Then, Kim Dong-wan surprised everyone by the news that he would be filming a promotional video for oriental medicine soon, saying that he was a ‘believer of oriental medicine’. In particular, Jeon Kwang-ryeol provoked laughter by saying, “Why aren’t you calling me?”

Dongwan Kim honestly confessed the reason why he left Seoul and went to the mountains of Gapyeong. He said, “I felt something was wrong with my body.” Taking medicine seemed improvised, so he went to an oriental doctor, and focused his attention when he said that he found out that his disease name was ‘Eumheohwadong’.

In addition, Kim Dong-wan said, “Something difficult to endure” said, “I don’t think I have the body and mind to work.” Afterwards, he surprised everyone by confessing that he had also depended on antidepressants and sleeping pills. He said that he decided to go to Gapyeonghaeng, thinking, “Nature makes me heal” and “It seems that this is the only way I can live.”

From beekeeping to drones and figurines, Kim Dong-wan, famous for his wealth of hobbies in the entertainment industry, is said to have updated another hobby on the spot by adding a “Short Film Festival entry plan.” Jeon Gwang-ryeol, who paid attention to Kim Dong-wan’s hobbies list, found an unexpected ‘soulmate’ and was satisfied.

As such, attention was focused on why Kim Dong-wan, a natural person in Gapyeong, who enjoys ‘self-healing’ with various hobbies, came to ‘Healing Mountain Lodge’. In response, Kim Dong-wan said, “I’m happy and good.. I keep getting into accidents..” He said that he opened his mouth with a self-diss (?), and attention is focused on what kind of story he will unravel.

The real reason why ‘Heo Jun’s rival’ Kim Dong-wan came to ‘Healing Hut’ can be found through ‘Healing Hut 2’, which will be broadcast on the evening of the 8th. It will be aired on Wednesdays at 6pm on ‘My Neighborhood B tv’ on ‘B tv Cable’ and 7:30pm on Wednesdays from this week on Channel S.
