On the 11th, MBC's Omniscient Interfering View featured Jimoovy, a creator whose annual salary is in the hundred-million KRW range (approximately $75,000), and captured his parents unleashing a torrent of familiar nags.

When they arrived, his parents launched into concerns like, \"Don’t eat those snacks,\" \"Are you still working until dawn?\" and \"Why don’t you eat vegetables?\" His father revealed he’d tried running a channel himself to better understand his creator son, a confession that visibly moved the panelists.

Jimoovy responded with candid feedback after watching his dad’s videos. He teased the thumbnail—\"it gives everything away\"—but also offered an approving remark: \"You followed my lead well.\" Panelists said the scene felt like an old karaoke room.

The episode even included the all-too-familiar parental pressure about marriage.
