On the episode of SBS's 'My Little Old Boy' that aired on the 21st, actor So Ji-sub appeared as a special MC and drew attention.

So Ji-sub, who arrived in the studio first during the broadcast, looked slightly embarrassed by the numerous cameras. When the 'Mom-vengers' (the celebrity mothers on the show) arrived shortly after, they praised him, saying, "You are so handsome. The studio is glowing."

In response, So Ji-sub created a heartwarming atmosphere by presenting the mothers with bouquets of flowers he had prepared. In particular, Yoon Min-soo's mother caught the eye by saying, "I think this is the first time I've received a bouquet in decades. It's been about 30 years."

The Mom-vengers were in awe of So Ji-sub's appearance. Kim Hee-chul's mother asked, "You seem to get more handsome as you age. How do you maintain that?"

So Ji-sub replied, "I give my best when I'm working on a project, and I fluctuate a bit when I'm resting."

Appearing as the 500th episode special guest, So Ji-sub prompted Shin Dong-yup to joke, "We didn't have a gift for our viewers, so we brought So Ji-sub instead," which drew laughter.

So Ji-sub, who is known for being completely different before and after receiving his acting fee, surprised everyone by saying, "When I'm not working on a project, I can gain up to 3kg in a day. I really love to eat."
