The Way of the Househusband: Gun Park & Goo Kim hcs
One word: perfectionist. Less neurotic, more inspired—passionate. Look at his fascination for martial arts, his perverted devotion to fighting; if you manage to catch his attention and keep it, rest assured, you won’t be stuck with a loser husband.
Weaponized incompetence? Not in Gun Park’s house!
This man is Tatsu, he is the househusband.
We all know that Gun cooks, hell, he can even make sushi. The kitchen is his domain. If you love cooking, too bad, you’re going to have to fight your husband for space. He wakes you up with fresh coffee, prepared just the way you like it, and by the time you’ve finished staring at the wall and trying to blink the sand from your eyes, breakfast is on the table and he has already packed your lunch for you (it’s an insulated lunch bag, of course). And I’d like to add, his bento boxes are the best. Your colleagues
After giving him a kiss goodbye, he cleans every inch of your home. No, really. He’s in a not-so-secret competition with Goo Kim when it comes to maintaining a spotless house.
When he’s done with his morning errands, he does his usual training: running around the neighborhood, weightlifting, flower arrangement classes with Goo Kim, beating up Goo Kim, studying about agriculture so he can maintain your beloved vegetable garden—the usual househusband hobbies.
Then it’s time to prep for dinner.
Gun’s favorite meal of the day is dinner, because that’s when you come home. Gun always waits for you. He refuses to eat a single bite without you at the table; even when he’s starving after his fight with the blonde psycho, even when you told him that you’ll be late for, he waits for your return. He looks forward to dinnertime, so much so that he used his yakuza connections to stop your bosses from holding nomikai[1] after work.
When you finally arrive, you give your husband a kiss and a hug, like you always do, everyday without fail, then you sit down and tell each other about your day.
Goo Kim is the very definition of a kept man. Just kidding, he’s a proud househubby who sees conventional expectations on men and flips them off while wearing his Gucci glasses. He’s goofy but also very proud.
Tom Lee used to say that Goo is “always messing around. He messes around when he eats. He messes around when he fights. He messes around no matter what weapon he has. He doesn't have a serious bone in his body… but as much as he messes around, there's one time when he gets serious. It's when he's holding a sword.”[2]
After getting married, Goo Kim now takes two things seriously: his swordsmanship and his marriage.
Despite his carefree childishness, like all martial artists, Goo is very hygienic and prefers things to be a certain way. He polishes every surface on the house like he would his beloved swords—and, not to brag, but you could look down and do your makeup on most of the floor and walls.
During his free time, he hangs out with Gun, whether casually, to play video games or fish, or more seriously, like cooking classes, which—to them—is serious business.
Goo loves expensive things, but as a “proper adult” and someone who is lucky enough to marry you, he tones down his spending habit. He always checks with you before going forward with major purchases, like cars or a brand new sword.
He has a tendency to prank you. Nothing extreme, usually harmless, mildly infuriating but ultimately funny jokes like covering your things with his selfie stickers, or welcoming you home wearing nothing but a pink apron.
If there is one thing you can rely on Goo, it’s that he can always make you laugh. A very goofy and sweet partner, he’ll humiliate himself if it means seeing you smile after a hard day.
