※ This video is part of <Korean Travelogue - Intoxicated by the Fall Foliage Part 2, The Man from Another Star> that aired on November 20, 2018. With a long beard that reaches down to his chest and white hair that is skillfully tied into a topknot, our man is an extraordinary modern-day scholar. When and from what star did he come? Mr. Moon Jae-bong, who dismantled a 380-year-old house, reassembled it on a site in Yeoju, Gyeonggi-do, and pieced it back together to build the current hanok, begins and ends his day by grinding ink, writing, and striking an orchid. His wife, Kim Soo-ja, met calligrapher Moon Jae-bong as teacher and student and became a married couple about 30 years ago. She has been living in the past in a time machine since she began spending time with the modern-day scholar. She has never gone hungry while farming rice and growing vegetables to be self-sufficient. Fortunately, the husband, who only knew how to read at the desk, could do everything from building a hanok to farming and making traditional food. However, the husband, who is unusually diligent, secretly takes a lot of work, so the wife often has to walk around every day to support him. The wife, who is standing in front of the stove to boil her husband's favorite soft tofu, is crying and snotting from the pungent smoke, but the husband, who is leisurely putting in firewood, is very happy. "They say smoke goes to people you don't like, but why is it coming to me?" "I guess I don't like it." The world where the couple bickering about making soft tofu is like a whole new world. ✔ Program name: Korean Travelogue - Intoxicated by Autumn Leaves Part 2: The Husband from the Stars ✔ Broadcast date: 2018.11.20 #GolladyeonDocumentary #KoreanTravelogue #Couple #Hanok #OldHouse #Calligraphy #SoftTofu
