Choi Yeo-jin from 'Radio Star' revealed that she proposed to her fiancé first.
On the 28th, during the broadcast of MBC entertainment program 'Radio Star' (hereinafter referred to as 'Ras'), which featured a special segment titled 'No Backing Out Sisters,' Lee Kyung-sil, Choi Yeo-jin, Lee Ho-sun, and Sa Yu-ri appeared, and Choi Yeo-jin recalled her first meeting with her fiancé.
On this day, Choi Yeo-jin caught attention by admitting that she had a strong period of infatuation with her fiancé Kim Jae-wook. He said, 'Usually, don't you get asked a lot about your ideal type? I like a man with a white V-line face, with no double eyelids, and long limbs like a model.'
She continued, 'When I go on blind dates, I end up noticing everything about the other person, including the color of their whites of the eyes. I focus on appearances and make evaluations, which I dislike. Therefore, I want a natural progression in relationships.'
She explained, 'I went waterskiing, we exercised together, played golf, bowled on rainy days, and played table tennis. We get along well in humor, and I like someone who can cook, and he cooked for me.'
In particular, Choi Yeo-jin mentioned, 'When I have ups and downs, I need someone to hold me and keep me grounded. For example, when I feel annoyed, I need someone to gently ask me why I feel that way.' Lee Kyung-sil remarked, 'That matches well with Choi Yeo-jin.'
Nevertheless, Choi Yeo-jin drew a line by calling her fiancé 'The Man from Nowhere.' She said, 'It wasn't that I felt attracted; rather, I thought I should meet this kind of person. If he was handsome, I would call him Oppa; if he wasn't, I called him The Man from Nowhere. I called him that as a way to indicate not to cross boundaries. But as I treated him well and then began to feel jealous at some point, I thought, 'Why is he being so caring toward her?' I told myself, 'Oh my, has she lost her mind? Get a grip.'
She added, 'Everything matches too well, and one of my concerns is whether he can understand my difficult and challenging career, along with my family environment.' However, she noted, 'My mother also remarried. Understanding all those things while loving me and engaging in the activities I enjoy holds a lot of significance for me.'
She came to realize that her ideal type was not based on external factors but internal ones. Choi Yeo-jin confessed, 'I only considered external factors before, but I had never thought about internal characteristics. This person was my ideal type. So, I thought, 'If that's the case, I should marry him.' Subsequently, I confessed my feelings first and proposed.'
When asked about her mother-in-law's reaction at the time, Choi Yeo-jin replied, 'My mother-in-law was very pleased. When my husband was talking to her and mentioned that we were dating, she said, 'Oh my, I'm so sorry, Yeo-jin.' I felt so sorry that I actually said to her, 'Mother, there's a celebration!' I was worried she might feel awkward. A few months later, when I spoke to her again, she expressed her gratitude, saying it felt like her son was loved and that he was very happy. She mentioned that he looked at ease.'
