- First, the idiotic Minister of Space gleefully runs to and greets astronaut Sun-woo as he gets off the plane bringing him home to Korea. Next, Sun-woo returns the stuffed animal back to Lee Sang-won’s son, who asks him if his dad really is on the moon. Son-woo answers yes, then gives Sang-won’s wife the picture with their new baby’s name written on the back. It’s her name, written backwards.
- Later, Kim Jae-guk and his intern are getting ready to entertain a bunch of kids visiting their observatory. While checking out a mock spacesuit, they see an announcement on the news that Jae-guk’s ex, Yoon Moon-young, has been named the new director of NASA. Later, Jae-guk greets the kids and is upset when they run to the person in the spacesuit and start yanking the tubes out. The intern suddenly appears, and Jae-guk is surprised and wonders who’s in the suit. The astronaut removes the helmet to reveal that it’s Sun-woo, who greets Jae-guk with a salute.
