In the first episode of tvN 'HappinessFang overseas tour' (hereinafter 'Kong Kong Pang Pang', which aired on the 17th, Lee Kwang-soo, Kim Woo-bin, and Do Kyung-soo, who bickered from the preparation process for the tour, began a dynamic tour to Mexico.
The broadcast ratings were 2.7 percent for households nationwide, up to 3.8 percent for households, 3.0 percent for households in the metropolitan area, and 4.7 percent for all cable and general service channels at the same time. The male and female 2049 viewership, which is the target of tvN, ranked first in all channels including terrestrial broadcasting in both national and metropolitan areas. (Based on paid platforms integrating cable, IPTV, and satellite / provided by Nielsen Korea)
First, a month before leaving the country, the opening ceremony of an overseas cultural tour group for KKPP Food executives and employees revealed their feelings on the departure and rules for overseas tours. Lee Kwang-soo, who thanked the headquarters for giving him the opportunity to visit, recalled the days when he had a hard time with 'Kindangpat' and 'Kindongbab':'"I'll take this opportunity to expand my knowledge and run without stopping for the next season because I have another season"He showed the CEO's class by expressing his impressions on his departure."
Executives and employees read the rules and learned that travel plans such as airline tickets, accommodation, and destinations must be established, and that travel expenses must be paid differently depending on the position. In particular, the total amount of travel expenses for CEO Lee Kwang-soo is 6 million won more than auditor Kim Woo-bin and head of the headquarters Do Kyung-soo. The confrontation between Do Kyung-soo, who opposed this, and Lee Kwang-soo, who tried to protect his travel expenses, caused laughter.
In the process of choosing a travel destination, Lee Kwang-soo, Kim Woo-bin, and Do Kyung-soo were able to check their travel tastes, and Lee Kwang-soo, who endlessly collects a list of travel candidates, made even the production team tired as he could not decide on a travel destination for two hours. After a long discussion, the first destination was Mexico City, Mexico.
On the long-awaited day of departure, Kim Woo-bin appeared in a suit comparable to the award ceremony to keep his manners to the viewers, embarrassing Lee Kwang-soo and Do Kyung-soo. After leaving Mexico City, the chemistry between the real friends continued, and Kim Woo-bin and Do Kyung-soo, who walked 14 minutes and took the subway without transfer, drew attention due to conflicting opinions.
In the end, Do Kyung-soo, following Lee Kwang-soo's words, seemed a little pitiful as to why he accepted Lee Kwang-soo's opinion"He said that he should accept it at least once with Kim Woo-bin." In addition, as if he found pancakes on the street while revealing his own standards that Do Kyung-soo does what he does and cuts what he doesn't do, Lee Kwang-soo said "It's a pancake!He shouted ", but both Do Kyung-soo and Kim Woo-bin pretended not to hear it, and the image of the push-and-pull masters sitting on the top of the eldest brother's head gave them fun.
In addition, there was a subtle nervous battle between the financial staff of the headquarters and the visiting team. When interest of 10,000 won was attached to the bank account of Kim Woo-bin, who received the travel expenses, a confrontation between a headquarters employee named "Izzado Company Money" and a visiting team that could not be taken away. When the headquarters staff took a generous attitude, "I will give it to you", the tour team expressed discomfort, and from the first day, the tense appearance of the two companies foreshadowed a formidable fiscal tug-of-war.
As such, 'Kongkongpangpang' gained interest with a new story of Lee Kwang-soo, Kim Woo-bin, and Do Kyung-soo, who left rural areas and cafeterias to expand their horizons to Mexico. While maintaining the unique charm of the 'Kindangsin' series, which was loved for its pleasant chemistry and harmless laughter, it added freshness with the excitement and joy of traveling to unfamiliar lands.
