Broadcaster Kim Byung-man has shared a lighthearted glimpse into daily life with his two young children.

On Monday, Kim posted a video to his personal social media account captioned "happiness in the midst of suffering," showing him playing with his children.

In the clip, Kim lies face-down on the floor with his son Ddoki riding on his back. Ddoki grabs his father's hair and bounces gleefully on top of him, clearly delighted.

His daughter Jjangi then climbs on as well, joining in the fun. Kim takes the full brunt of both children's antics while shooting the camera a look of exaggerated strain, drawing laughs from viewers.

With both children piled on his back, Kim struggles to hide how worn out he is — yet he keeps the play going to the end. The scene, carried off with the stamina befitting his "master" reputation, radiates the warmth of a close-knit family.

Kim divorced his former wife in 2023 and completed the process of dissolving his adoptive relationship with her daughter last August. He married a non-celebrity woman the following month, in September of last year, and it later emerged that the couple already had a daughter and a son together.

Kim introduced his eldest daughter and younger son to the public through the TV Joseon program Joseon's Romantics, drawing wide attention.
