Singer Moonwon has clarified rumors surrounding him, while Koyote Shin Ji, who promised to marry next year, will also make an appearance. As it is a live broadcast, attention is drawn to whether she will directly address suspicions surrounding her prospective husband and the emotional turmoil she has experienced.
Koyote Shin Ji will appear on the live broadcast of KBS Cool FM's 'Park Myung-soo's Radio Show' in the 'Grant statement' segment on the 9th.
On that day, Shin Ji will collaborate with Baekga in the live broadcast. The 'Grant statement' segment is composed of listening to listeners' stories and guests including DJ Park Myung-soo sharing their thoughts and offering advice. While Baekga and model Lee Hyun-yi have mainly collaborated, this time Shin Ji is set to join Baekga for the live broadcast.
Shin Ji's appearance is attracting attention as it is the first time after controversy arose regarding her prospective husband, Moonwon. Although Moonwon has posted on his social media account to clarify the controversy, Shin Ji has remained silent without a clear position. Therefore, with Shin Ji directly appearing, it is noteworthy whether she will share her feelings regarding the controversy.
As news of their wedding shoot emerged, Shin Ji and Moonwon became a couple likely to marry next year. The two developed into a romantic relationship after connecting on a radio program hosted by Shin Ji, releasing a duet titled 'Shalladakdula' and continuing to appear together on live radio broadcasts.
The suspicions regarding Moonwon first arose from an engagement ceremony video posted on Shin Ji's YouTube channel. The video featured Moonwon appearing while meeting Koyote members for the engagement ceremony, and he said, "This might be a surprising story, but I have been known as a boyfriend and fiancé to many people. I didn't realize Ji-seon (Shin Ji's real name) was such a famous person. I just saw her as a woman. So, I thought I should treat her better and live earnestly." His claim of not knowing that Shin Ji was famous, despite working in the same industry and having seen Koyote's heyday, raised eyebrows.
Moonwon revealed, "In fact, I had been married once" and added, "I have a lovely daughter. My ex-wife is raising her, but we communicate, and we try to take care of everything for the child's sake. I became aware of that. At first, I didn't know, but as the relationship deepened, I felt I had to be honest." Upon hearing this, Baekga was left speechless and stepped out, saying he would use the restroom.
Shin Ji said, "I like you. I love you, so I can embrace you. I thought that if people like my older brother or Baekga learned about this from someone other than us, they might feel hurt," but netizens who watched the video pointed out Moonwon's seemingly dismissive attitude regarding basic dress etiquette at the engagement ceremony, his references to Shin Ji and his ex-wife, the concealment of his divorce history and children, his claim of not knowing Koyote well, and his rude behavior of interrupting Kim Jong-min, whom he met for the first time. Additionally, comments in the video included rumors about the reasons for the divorce, allegations of violence during military service, and suspicions about his school days.
In response, Moonwon stated, "I deeply regret my actions and words in the video were thoughtless. Because you are my closest person, I failed to consider the feelings of those who love Shin Ji. However, while it is true that I worked in real estate without a certified real estate agent's license along with a real estate office, the rumors about me bullying friends or juniors during school and military service, and about the premarital pregnancy with my ex-wife — while those are true — are false regarding me having been involved with others during that time.
Moonwon's friends from school and military service expressed confusion about the rumors during interviews, and some comments were deleted, leading to a temporary easing of suspicions. Moonwon apologized, saying, "I sincerely apologize for causing concern once again. I will reflect on my shortcomings and live as a more responsible person in the life I share with Shin Ji. I apologize once again with my head bowed."
Following Moonwon's apology, Shin Ji will make an appearance on the live broadcast. After the wedding announcement, she received many congratulations, but it is expected she may share what has troubled her heart regarding the suspicions surrounding her prospective husband. The segment 'Grant statement' featuring Shin Ji and Baekga will be available at 11 a.m. on the 9th on KBS Cool FM's 'Park Myung-soo's Radio Show.'
