[Edaily Reporter Son Eui-Yeon ] In its broadcast on the 18th, MBC’s “Omniscient Interfering View” (OIV) revealed a day in the life of TVXQ’s U-Know Yunho—who, even 24 years after his debut, remains the “overly passionate guy”—and Yoon Na-ra, known as “Yoon Jumo, the homebrewer.”

Although U-Know Yunho had only slept for three hours after wrapping up an event, he immediately set out for his fasting cardio workout—a routine he hasn’t missed a single day for over a year—the moment he opened his eyes. He then carried out his daily routine step by step, including saving coins, reading one page a day, reading fan letters, and writing in his “Passion Diary” to record his ideas. These habits, cultivated since his trainee days when he commuted between Gwangju and Seoul, endured life in saunas and on the streets, and took on various part-time jobs, have been the driving force behind his 24-year reign at the top.

His passion was also evident in his care for his colleagues. It was revealed that he gifted his manager, Byun Si-woo—who has been with him for five years—a custom-tailored suit and never failed to send a handwritten letter on holidays and birthdays. During a meeting ahead of his first solo concert, he personally listened to and incorporated feedback from every department—including production, styling, hair, makeup, and merchandising—and led the meeting for an extended period. Even after the meeting, despite suffering from back pain, he continued rehearsals by performing “Thank U” and his new song “Time’s Tickin’.” He then personally visited the music video editing room to review the cuts and details, and it wasn’t until after 10 p.m. that he had his first meal of the day with his close friend Dindin. Dindin shook his head in disbelief, asking, “Are you in debt? Why are you pushing yourself this hard?”

The daily life of Yoon Joo-mo (Yoon Na-ra), who made it to the Top 5 on “Black & White Chef 2,” was also revealed for the first time. She prepared a breakfast spread using only ingredients from her refrigerator—making stir-fried pork with homemade quick gochujang and cooking a stew with deeply infused broth and makjang. At a traditional liquor brewery, she insisted on the “Sambaekse” method—washing the rice 300 times—which goes beyond the “Baekse” method described in historical texts. She steamed rice in a traditional jil-siru, added pine needles and bokbunja berries to develop a new liquor, and filled her notebooks and books on the subject to the brim with notes. Watching this, Yoonho remarked, “It takes time and effort to create your own unique flavor. I think I’ll watch today’s video over and over again,” he marveled. During the evening service, she delighted guests by pairing traditional liquor on the spot with dishes like tangpyeongchae, boiled pork, tteokbokki, and potato pancakes. After closing, she met up with classmates from the Film Department at Seoul Institute of the Arts, where she engaged in an impromptu rap battle with Yoonho and sang “I’m Fine” at the top of her lungs, revealing her hidden talent.

Next week’s episode will feature the daily life of JYP CEO Park Jin-young and Kim Ah-young’s first theater debut following her move into a new home.
