A montage(?) that prompted guesses about Kim Jong-kook's wife was revealed, drawing attention.
On the 21st episode of SBS variety show Running Man, Cha Tae-hyun mentioned Kim Jong-kook's wife.
The production team introduced it as "a gag to hold back and refuse congratulations," noting that Kim Jong-kook usually dislikes birthday celebrations, and said, "Because it is still a special day, the production team prepared a wedding congratulatory party with all the fuss they could muster," adding, "a mission to exclude the cringey parts of the congratulatory party." Kim Jong-kook said, "Don't do it, really," but everyone said in unison, "Let's work together until the end."
Then Jisuk-jin, who was beside him, asked again, "Will there be a wife when you wake up?" out of curiosity. Kim Jong-kook said, "Why are you so curious about the wedding? We have to do our mission," and everyone said in unison, "Actually the mission isn't important. We want to throw Jong-kook a party."
The members continued, "So is today a game to guess the sister-in-law's job?" repeatedly mentioning the veiled Kim Jong-kook wife. In response, Cha Tae-hyun said, "Let's create it from now on," and joked, "If he doesn't tell us, let's make (rumors)," adding, "Let's fake the age and what she does," which caused another burst of laughter.
They moved by car. The atmosphere of curiosity about Kim Jong-kook's wife continued, and Jisuk-jin said, "People around me do ask," adding, "But I have facial amnesia, I really don't remember." Then when someone said, "She had a graceful look; hanbok suited her well," everyone laughed, saying, "Aren't you confusing her with your mother? She didn't wear a hanbok, the wife didn't."
Jisuk-jin tried to smooth things over by saying again, "She seems to be very understanding." Then Cha Tae-hyun, who was beside him, suddenly revealed a composite sketch of Kim Jong-kook's wife. He said, "Her eyes are big and pretty; she's not double-lidded," and Jisuk-jin said, "I remembered my sister-in-law's face when I saw this." When Yoo Jae-suk said, "Enough, brother," Jisuk-jin added, "Don't let Cha Tae-hyun egg him on; he's uncontrollable." Cha Tae-hyun kept stubbornly revising the composite sketch of Kim Jong-kook's wife, then corrected, "You have to draw it slender; it's a V-line." Yoo Jae-suk laughed, saying, "Tae-hyun, stop drawing; what's wrong with that," yet Cha Tae-hyun's active role continued that day.
Meanwhile, speculation about the identity of the bride-to-be had continued even earlier. Jisuk-jin asked, "Is she someone I know?" and Kim Jong-kook drew a line by saying, "She is someone I don't know. She is not from the entertainment industry," which became a topic of conversation.
In particular, on the same day the 14th, on the SBS variety show My Little Old Boy (hereinafter My Little Old Boy), Kim Hee-chul said, "Kim Jong-kook's wife's face also appears; if you search Kim Jong-kook bride it comes up," and even summoned an AI video of Kim Jong-kook entering the wedding venue with the Babel bride. Kim Jong-kook found it absurd, saying, "I'm not that out of my mind," which left more curiosity about the bride's identity.
