Brian, the 'builder' who constructed his home in Pyeongtaek, boasts a unique sense of style.
On the upcoming broadcast of MBC's cultural program 'Reason for Architecture - Space Traveler' (hereafter 'Reason for Architecture') on the 5th at 9 PM, singer Brian and announcer Park Ji-min embark on an architectural journey to find 'Nujoh (a space with a good vibe)'. The program will explore why Seongsu-dong, a trend center, has become a hot place for 'Nujoh' spaces from various angles.
Brian, who drew attention by building a luxurious mansion of 300 pyeong in Pyeongtaek, has always had a keen interest in architecture, stating, "My original dream was to be an architect or an interior designer." He expresses his desire to decorate his home like a resort, introducing his Pyeongtaek house, which features a swimming pool and leisure space reminiscent of Beverly Hills in the USA. Hong Jin-kyung, who had a virtual housewarming, jokingly asks, "Can I go on vacation to Brian's house?" eliciting laughter.
Jeon Hyun-moo, who has visited Brian's house, remarks on something expensive he saw besides the swimming pool, saying, "At first, I thought it was just a show-off, but it turns out there’s a reason for everything. His architectural sense is great," and shares Brian's 'Gamda-sal (a point that makes you feel good)' architectural highlights, drawing attention.
As the architectural journey to 'Seongsu-dong Nujoh' officially begins, Brian is surprised by the bustling crowds even on a weekday morning. Everyone is astonished to learn that Seongsu-dong, now a hot place, was once an industrial area. Urban historian Kim Si-deok reveals the secrets of how this abandoned space became a hot spot. Jeon Hyun-moo expresses his surprise at Seongsu-dong meeting the criteria for a hot place, saying, "It was destined to be," sparking curiosity about what secrets lie within.
Architect Yoo Hyun-jun draws parallels between Seongsu-dong and famous spots like Soho and Brooklyn in New York, and Newbury Street in Boston, focusing on the similarities that Seongsu-dong shares with these globally renowned locations.
The architectural journey to 'Seongsu-dong Nujoh' with architect Brian and MZ announcer Park Ji-min can be seen on MBC's 'Reason for Architecture - Space Traveler' airing on August 5th at 9 PM.
