On the September 6 broadcast of SBS "My Little Old Boy", Choi Jin-hyuk was shown celebrating his mother's 70th birthday.
In the episode, Choi Jin-hyuk invited the mothers to his home. Waiting for them was a banner celebrating his mother's 70th birthday.
Upon seeing this, Choi Jin-hyuk's mother expressed embarrassment in front of the older women, saying, "What is this, how embarrassing. Why would you hang something like this up for a birthday everyone just passes by?"
Watching this, Kim Seung-soo's mother expressed envy by saying, "Oh my, my son didn't throw me a 70th birthday party," while Yoon Min-soo's mother also joined in, saying, "I didn't get one either," showing jealousy toward Choi Jin-hyuk's mother.
Choi Jin-hyuk prepared welcome tea for the mothers. Kim Seung-soo's mother mentioned that she didn't get a 70th birthday party and asked the other mothers what they experienced.
In response, Huh Kyung-hwan's mother said, "We did it in Jeju Island. We lived in Jeju Island for a month," eliciting envy from everyone. In particular, Choi Jin-hyuk's mother told him, "Hey Jin-hyuk, try tilting your ear this way and listen."
Then Yoon Min-soo's mother bragged, "My son bought me a Rolex watch." Hearing this, Huh Kyung-hwan's mother passed the information to Choi Jin-hyuk, saying, "Jin-hyuk, Min-soo bought his mom a Rolex," prompting Choi Jin-hyuk to cut off the conversation by saying, "Mothers, please don't talk about things like that," bringing laughter to the room.
Choi Jin-hyuk prepared ssanghwacha for the welcome tea. In response, the mothers raised their voices, saying, "Why ssanghwacha in the middle of May and June? It's burning hot." Choi Jin-hyuk then made his mother furious by saying, "Well, I was going to just put an egg yolk in, but I ended up using a whole carton of eggs."
Saying he prepared a course meal for the day, Choi Jin-hyuk prepared fresh spring rolls and pasta. However, his preparation process was total chaos. Consequently, the mothers grew anxious, wondering, "Will the food come out properly? We don't know if we'll even be able to eat anything."
As Choi Jin-hyuk's cooking continued endlessly over time, the mothers eventually lost their patience and started secretly taking and eating the ingredients for the spring rolls.
Finally, the mothers applauded when the food was completed. It took Choi Jin-hyuk about three hours just to cook. The mothers then happily ate the meal prepared by Choi Jin-hyuk.
As the only son among the "My Little Old Boy" cast members living with his mother, Choi Jin-hyuk candidly stated, "I don't think there's any need to live separately," while adding, "It is a bit inconvenient when dating." Hearing this, Yoon Min-soo's mother drew attention by suggesting a way to solve the problem, saying, "Then you should find a boyfriend for your mom."
Choi Jin-hyuk also prepared a gift for his mother. When a large box bearing a luxury brand name appeared, his mother could not hide her excitement. However, contrary to her expectations, the box contained a smaller box, and inside that was yet another smaller box, which held a household account book, making his mother furious.
An angered mother hit Choi Jin-hyuk with the account book. In response, Choi Jin-hyuk avoided the crisis by saying, "How can you curse at me over that?" and revealed the real gift, a massage chair.
