On 'Gakjip Couple,' comedian Park Myeong-su could not hide his delight upon hearing about actress Shin Hyun-joon's wife, who is 12 years his junior, and her remarkable background.
The episode of tvN STORY's 'Gakjip Couple' that aired on the 2nd revealed the daily life of actor Shin Hyun-joon and his wife, Kim Kyung-mi, who live as a weekend couple for the sake of their three children's education.
It was revealed that his wife, Kim Kyung-mi, graduated from Sunhwa Arts High School and completed both a bachelor's and master's degree at the New England Conservatory of Music in the United States, showing she was once a promising former cellist. Upon hearing her background, broadcaster Park Myeong-su immediately expressed his pleasure, saying "she's a senior of our daughter."
Another intriguing coincidence was revealed: both Park Myeong-su's daughter and Shin Hyun-joon's daughter share the name 'Min-seo,' which added to the laughter from Park Myeong-su over the unexpected connection with Kim Kyung-mi.
Shin Hyun-joon recalled that when he announced his marriage at the relatively late age of 46, people around him initially did not believe the news, drawing attention.
Meanwhile, his wife Kim Kyung-mi opened up about the deep struggle she experienced after marriage. She said, "I couldn't do both at the same time," revealing that she gave up a 20-year career as a cellist and chose family. Shin Hyun-joon added a warm note by saying that despite marrying late he has built a happy family, including having his youngest daughter at the age of 55.<
