Jang Yoonjung - Master in the House

In “Master in the House” (집사부일체), the butlers singer / actor Lee Seung Gi (이승기), BTOB’s Yook Sungjae (육성재), actor Lee Sang Yoon (이상윤) and comedian Yang Sehyung (양세형) enjoy a day of trot techniques training with Master Jang Yoonjung (장윤정) who is a trot singer and a busy mum of two children, including a toddler. Although Master Jang Yoonjung debuted in 1999, she did not become famous until her 2004 hit single "Eomeona" (어머나 / Oh My Goodness), which was credited with repopularising trot music in Korea. She is now one of the busiest entertainers in Korea, performing at 6-7 events every day and has barely taken a day off work in six months. Her large family house has no fence or walls and is made of red bricks with a red roof, her favourite colour. Inside the house displays a collection of her numerous plaques and award certificates, a liquor fridge with an assortment of beer to unwind after a long day, a karaoke machine for entertainment and singing practice which is a must-have as a trot singer, as well as a couple of large wedding photographs of Master Jang Yoonjung and her news anchor husband Do Kyung Wan (도경완) hanging by the staircase wrapping the wall with their love.
