'lovely' itself…Kim Jong-kook reveals wife is a 'cheapskate,' a match made in heaven
On Sept. 5, Kim Jong-kook, who held a wedding with a non-celebrity woman, is drawing attention by revealing small behind-the-scenes stories about preparing for the wedding and subsequent newlywed life.
A week before the wedding, Kim Jong-kook mentioned the criteria for inviting guests on SBS 'My Little Old Boy,' saying, "I only invited people I see at least once a week," and "I of course invited the gym director I see every day." He also said he would entrust the wedding emcee to Yoo Jae-suk and sing the congratulatory song himself, drawing everyone's attention. The members marveled, asking, "Aren't you going to sing 'There Is a Man'?"
He also honestly confessed that he has not yet proposed. When Kim Dong-hyun asked, "You must do it. Haven't you done it yet?" Kim Jong-kook shyly revealed his feelings, saying, "Be quiet. I am thinking I should do it. Actually, I'm worried about the proposal."
Meanwhile, the wedding aftermath also brought laughter. On the 21st episode of SBS 'Running Man,' the behind-the-scenes of Kim Jong-kook's LA wedding was revealed. That day his close friend Cha Tae-hyun appeared as a special guest, and it was reported that Kim Jong-kook sang the congratulatory song 'Lovely' himself with a live band. Haha also praised him, saying, "At last the owner of 'Lovely' has been found."
Riding the momentum, Kim Jong-kook is set to reveal his life in the third week of marriage. On the KBS2 variety show Problem Child in House airing on the 25th, newlywed Kim Jong-kook in his third week of marriage will reveal his irrepressible cheapskate instincts even during newlywed life. Introducing his wife's thriftiness, he showed off his doting side, saying, "My wife uses wet wipes, dries them, and uses them again. I didn't tell her to do that."
He also shared a sweet newlywed moment, saying, "I look at my wife's lovely 모습 as she does the dishes in the morning," and added, "When I stared at her, she said, 'Did I turn the water on too strongly?'" which made the studio burst into laughter. When Kim Sook persistently asked, "Could you not hear the sound of the water?" Kim Jong-kook admitted, "I heard it, so I must have seen it," showing his unchanged cheapskate side even after marriage.
Netizens who watched the broadcast reacted with comments such as, "Kim Jong-kook and his wife are a match made in heaven," "They even save wet wipes, what a sweet cheapskate couple," and "Everything from the congratulatory song to their newlywed life is so cute," raising expectations.
Problem Child in House airs every Thursday at 8:30 p.m. on KBS2, delivering dopamine-exploding quizzes and laughter. Viewers can expect great enjoyment from the lovely appearance of the cheapskate newlywed Kim Jong-kook and the harmonious husband-and-wife chemistry he will show in this episode.
