Baek Jong-won Playfully Suggests Actor An Bo-hyun Should Get Married on 'Backpacker 2'

In a surprising twist on the upcoming episode of tvN's 'Backpacker 2', Baek Jong-won tells actor Ahn Bo-hyun to "get married."

This week's episode, airing on August 15, focuses on the preparations for a special performance in celebration of Liberation Day. Baek Jong-won, Lee Soo-geun, Heo Kyung-hwan, Ahn Bo-hyun, and Ko Kyung-pyo work tirelessly to showcase a Taekwondo demonstration featuring students who have given up their vacation time for this event. Highlighting the urgent mission that came from audience requests adds an element of suspense to the show's narrative.

The young performers are from Korea's first children's Taekwondo demonstration team, with a rich history of over 51 years. Having previously showcased their skills during high-profile events like the 1988 Seoul Olympics and in front of Queen Elizabeth II, they bring a wealth of experience to the performance. With over a thousand shows under their belt, the preparation for Liberation Day promises to be thrilling.

As they dedicate their weekends and vacation days to the event, the Backpackers demonstrate their commitment by providing a special cooking service for the talented children. Faced with an unusual request to blend Taekwondo techniques into their culinary presentation, the team is excited yet challenged when they discover a nearly empty pantry. The high standards for school meals, including allergy checks and vegetable cleaning procedures, make this mission even more complicated.

During a menu meeting, Baek Jong-won expresses a strong desire to serve meat, revealing his caring father figure side as he remembers the children's wishes. However, opinions clash between the unmarried members and Baek Jong-won, making for an entertaining discussion. In a moment of jest, he turns to Ahn Bo-hyun and playfully suggests he should "get married," leaving viewers curious about the context behind the comment.

Ready to impress, Baek prepares a gourmet steak for each child, while Ahn Bo-hyun teases a dessert that rivals hotel offerings. With the series's first-ever attempt at baking leading into a powerful Taekwondo performance, expectations are high for this special festive feast. As 'Backpacker 2' prepares to air its 16th episode, viewers are eagerly awaiting the delightful surprises in store.
