His playful and social nature made him a standout, although he required more guidance, which he often received from his brothers.

Formation

The Song Triplets “formed” as a public entity on July 6, 2014, when they joined The Return of Superman, a KBS reality show where celebrity fathers care for their children without their mothers for 48 hours.

Song Il-kook, already a renowned actor for roles like Jumong, introduced his then-two-year-old triplets to the show.

Their distinct personalities—Daehan’s leadership, Min-guk’s charm, and Man–se’s free spirit—quickly made them stars.

The trio’s name, “Daehan Minguk Manse,” was chosen by their grandmother, Kim Eul-dong, as a reflection of national pride.

Career

From 2014 to 2016, the Song Triplets became South Korea’s “nation’s nephews” on The Return of Superman, captivating audiences with their adorable antics and brotherly bond.

Their episodes, which featured activities such as park visits, military camps, and cultural experiences, drew high ratings and garnered global fans, particularly in Asia.

They appeared in 11 advertisements in 2015 alone, endorsing products from fruit juice to healthcare, ranking as South Korea’s fifth most popular celebrities for ads. The triplets also made a cameo in their father’s drama Jang Yeong-sil (2016).

After leaving the show in February 2016, the family moved to France for a year due to Jung Seung-yeon’s judicial training, allowing the triplets a break from the spotlight.

They faced racial discrimination there, including a disturbing incident where urine was thrown at them at a playground.

Returning to South Korea, they resumed a private life but reappeared on tvN’s You Quiz on the Block in July 2024, their first TV appearance in a decade.

Now, 13-year-old middle schoolers shared stories of growth and puberty, with Min-guk notably being the tallest in his school at 175 cm.
