Singer Lee Seung-hwan recommended watching the documentary 'Adult Kim Jang-ha'.
On the 13th, Lee Seung-hwan posted on SNS, "The 'elderly' and 'adults' should be distinguished," stating, "If someone has lived a long time without insight or wisdom, merely surviving with shallow and trivial knowledge and a poor philosophy, then they are 'elderly.' 'Adults' are rare and precious."
He continued, "Here is a story of a true adult I want to emulate. I hope you all watch 'Adult Kim Jang-ha,'" recommending the documentary film 'Adult Kim Jang-ha' (directed by Kim Hyun-ji), which was released in November 2023.
'Adult Kim Jang-ha' is a film adaptation of a documentary produced by Gyeongnam MBC in 2022, restructured to fit a movie runtime. It tells the story of Kim Jang-ha, who has operated a traditional medicine shop in Jinju, Gyeongsangnam-do, and has donated hundreds of millions to society while continuing his good deeds for over 60 years. The film has garnered significant attention since its release for its impactful story and won the TV Documentary Award at the 59th Baeksang Arts Awards. It is noteworthy that a regional terrestrial content won an award at the Baeksang Arts Awards, drawing considerable attention.
