Detailed information

Overview — From comedy to presenting

Park Soo-hong, born October 27, 1970, is a broadcaster who debuted through the 1991 KBS College Comedy Contest. JTBC's official presenter profile lists his birth date, debut and notable broadcasting work, including cooking programs. He later expanded into talk-show hosting, radio presenting and observational variety shows. [1] [4] [2] [7]

Public activities in 2026 — Home shopping and support for children

On September 7, 2026, he appeared on a live home-shopping broadcast to sell products. A September 11 report describes it as a one-off appearance arranged with a partner company. This record does not imply a regular slot or a new permanent program. [12]

On April 16 of the same year, he visited Jusarang Community, which operates a baby box, and participated in a cooperation agreement. The organization's material describes support for children in care, infants in crisis and single-mother families, as well as awareness of respect for life. Although the material was posted on April 23, the timeline uses the actual agreement date of April 16. [11]

Childbirth programs — Our Baby Is Born

In 2025, he co-hosted TV CHOSUN's Our Baby Is Born with Yang Se-hyung. The program follows families preparing for childbirth and welcoming a new life. Cine21's information records the first season as airing from May 9 to June 20. [8]

He then participated as a childbirth correspondent in Our Baby Is Born Again, which premiered on September 16. His participation is also confirmed in the broadcaster's official November 4 clip. Hosting the first season and participating on location in the new season are distinguished. [10] [9]

Observational variety — My Little Old Boy and The Return of Superman

He joined SBS's My Little Old Boy when its regular run began on August 26, 2016. In a format where mothers watch their sons' daily lives, he was an observed cast member rather than a studio host. [5]

On August 18, 2024, he joined KBS 2TV's The Return of Superman as a new father-to-be participant. Unlike earlier programs about his unmarried life, this recorded his journey toward fatherhood. The date refers to that broadcast appearance and does not establish current regular-cast status. [7]

Talk-show hosting — Dongchimi

MBN's Dongchimi premiered on November 17, 2012, with Park Soo-hong and Choi Eun-kyung as hosts. He spent many years presenting the talk show, which explores everyday conflicts and concerns through guests' experiences and opinions. [2]

In March 2025, a host change was announced as part of a program revamp. An MBN representative said the two hosts would leave after the March 29 broadcast. Dongchimi is therefore presented as a major past hosting credit rather than a current assignment. [3]

Cooking television and radio

He appeared as a new celebrity chef in the third-anniversary special of KBS 2TV's Stars' Top Recipe at Fun-Staurant, broadcast on October 28, 2022. The program showed his cooking and daily life caring for his cat. This distinguishes presenting a show from appearing to cook on it. [6]

In radio, he was introduced as a DJ for MBC Standard FM's Now Is the Radio Era in June 2016, co-hosting with Choi Yu-ra. MBC reported his thoughts on joining and his enthusiasm for listeners. This records his radio work at that time rather than a current hosting status. [4]

Awards

He received the Excellence Award in the Reality category at the 2024 KBS Entertainment Awards. KBS's official video list includes the December 21 broadcast scene in which Park Soo-hong and Jung Ji-sun received Excellence Awards. Awards are recorded separately from broadcasting appearances. [13]
