The Family flew high visiting Hapcheon in Gyeongsangnam-do. Due to Kang Dae-sung's absence, two guests were featured. Upon arriving, the Family was tasked to experience the county's specialty—paragliding—atop Mt. Deaem. However, due to the poor wind conditions, some of the members were unable to do the jump. During dinner preparations, "Tall" Park Hae-jin and "Short" elder Yoon Jong-shin went into a cave to fetch locally fermented kimchi. After dinner, knowing that Kim Jong-kook's relatives reside in the nearby town, Haeinsa, the Family split into pairs in order to bring one of his relatives. The losers ended up with early-morning chores, which eventually did not push through due to the bad weather. As the last game, the Family played ssireum in a local beach along Hwang River.
