When Kim Gook Jin commented, “It seems like you wouldn’t have struggled much growing up,” Nam Joo Hyuk explained the tough times his family experienced when he was younger.

He shared, “It was really tough for me and my family. For the whole year of 3rd grade, I only ate cup ramen. We didn’t even have a bathroom in the house.” The MCs and guests were surprised to hear this side of him.

"I have had a bowl for the whole year of my elementary school, and I did not have a restroom at home," he said, noting that the house was too difficult for him. However, thanks to recent improvements, I donate to my alma mater, and I also act on my mother. 

Jo In-sung, who listened to this, added, "Juhyeok Ga (Cha) Tae Hyun cried while talking to her brother." Nam Joo Hyeok said, "I was tired after a strange moment, and I was not good at 21 years of living in a model." It is a little better since the school year 2015, "and said," My mother is now comfortable with her cards. " 

Jo In Sung chimed in and stated, “He cried while talking to Cha Tae Hyun about this.”  Nam Joo Hyuk responded, “It was so weird, I just started crying.”

Others wondered if times were still tough once he started modeling. Nam Joo Hyuk answered, “Until I was 21, even with the modeling gigs, it was still really hard.” He affirmed that it was only after “Who Are You: School 2015” did things get start to get a little better.
