'I failed 100 auditions, I'm going to take the manager's bath...'Jang Gwang-ja confesses to panic disorder ('Dad and I')



Actor Jang Kwang sympathized with his son Jang Young's panic disorder.

TV CHOSUN 'Dad and Me…' which aired on the 4th ranked first overall in the general program with a viewership of 3.2 percent (Nilson Korea, national standard), and the highest viewership per minute was 3.8 percent (Nilson Korea, national standard). On this day, Jang Kwang and his father talked deeply about the panic disorder that Jang Young suffered. Jang Young said she was cast in two works in a row around the age of 29 to 30 and fell down.

Since then, he has failed more than a hundred auditions in a year or two, and even had an X bath from his agency's manager. And one day, Jang Young, who collapsed on the hill on his way home because he couldn't breathe, told the situation at the time that he was in a hurry, saying, `I thought I would die at this rate.' Jang Kwang, who first learned about his son's difficulties, said "If that happens in the future, make sure to tell your mom and dad. Even if you can't solve it, it's the power of the family to overcome it." In response, Jang Young thanked "I felt like you said that you would share your luggage entirely on my side. As expected, I think my family is where I can lean on," he said, expressing his emotion.



Jang Kwang summoned Jeon Hyun-moo's 'Lucifer' to go with his son to the dance class he was learning. Jang Kwang explained that "Jeon Hyun-moo is good at hosting and entertainment, but he became more popular thanks to his dance." Jun Hyun-moo, who was watching this, said "Without SHINee, I would not be here", and it received an explosive response by immediately performing 'Mucifer'. Then "I danced this dance for 15 years alone. If you go to a pub, you can just play this," he said, drawing laughter. Jang Young said, `I hope you learn this and that little by little for future"I decided to go to a dance class with my dad's sincere advice.

Upon arriving at the dance academy, Jang Kwang changed into a colorful dance suit he brought himself and burned his will. Jang Young perfectly pulled off a bright red see-through shirt, drawing a remark from her teacher that `I passed with my body.' After changing, I went into tango class in the movie `Scent of a Woman.' Even though it was her first time, Jang Young quickly followed the difficult tango step and turn. Jang Kwang admired his son's performance, saying, `It becomes a ratio, so even if you walk a little, you can be a picture.' On the other hand, Janggwang reminded me of the mask dance, with his arms and feet playing separately, and even his steps getting tangled.



Jang Young drew laughter by dissing her father's stiff dance, saying, `It feels like I'm watching Jangseung.' After three hours of stormy class, a final check was made on the dance learned that day. Contrary to concerns during practice, Jang Kwang showed off the tango of Gwanrok, which he felt relaxed. Jang Young led a veteran partner and was praised for her charismatic dance.

Meanwhile, Son Dam-bi visited a market in Gildong, Seoul, which is also where she spent her school days, to get a glimpse of her mother's real life that she has not seen since she was 20. Upon arriving at the market, Son Dam-bi's mother announced her daughter's pregnancy preparation everywhere, and merchants cheered for her pregnancy. In response, Son Dam-bi was embarrassed, saying "Mom is someone who never talks about me, but did she talk about me this much?" And the mother and daughter's first shopping took place at the mother's favorite clothing store. Son Dam-bi seems to have wanted to do it materially rather than go together," he said, expressing regret. Son Dambi's mother said "It was nice that my daughter bought me clothes, but I felt like I was in a bad mood. I thought my daughter's heart was a little open," he said.



Subsequently, Son Dam-bi's mother and daughter headed to her mother's regular hair salon. As a neighborhood love room, my mom's neighborhood friends who are more than 10 years old gathered. Here, Son Dam-bi heard that her mother ran an imported clothing store in Myeong-dong before marriage. Son Dam-bi's mother confessed that she had to take care of the family's livelihood on behalf of her late father. And just like himself, he vented his sorrowful heart about his daughter, who became the head of the household at the young age of 20, saying, `I don't know if this is how it is, it always hurts.' Son Dam-bi, who learned about her mother's past history, said, `I understand my mother, who was always sensitive to the cost of living I give her today. He said, "It must have been hard to bear because he was doing what he didn't want to do to his child."

Son Dam-bi's mother's story of 11 years of husband care left everyone in the dark. Son Dam-bi's parents, who had a super-fast wedding in three months at first sight, had been at odds for 20 years since Son was two years old. And when her husband collapsed due to a cerebral hemorrhage, Son Dam-bi's mother confessed that she took care of him with utmost sincerity to pay off her heart's debt. In response, the mother's friends added "Dad was sick for a long time, but my mother went to and from the market every time it was hot or rainy, and I ate three meals a day." Finally, Son Dam-bi says of today's outing, `I support my mother for her second life. It was a meaningful time like a gift to learn about my mother's life."

Next week, Ham Ik-byung, who served as the troubleshooter of the father and son Jang Kwang, will appear as the new father's representative, revealing the reality that no one knew. Jang-gwang's son, Jang-young, gives his father a handwritten letter with a surprise gift, turning the family dining out into a sea of tears. TV CHOSUN 'DAD AND ME' airs every Wednesday at 10 p.m.
