Comedian Cho Sae-ho's "once-veiled" wife, a former model, drew attention last August when she revealed her face to the world thanks to Son Heung-min, and interest has refocused recently as she added a "height confession" episode she released ahead of their first wedding anniversary.
Earlier, the Tottenham-Newcastle match of the "2025 Coupang Play Series" held last August at Seoul World Cup Stadium was Son Heung-min's final domestic game and drew about 60,000 spectators. With many stars in attendance, broadcast cameras captured the face of Cho Sae-ho's wife sitting next to him.
Before the match began, the sight of his wife naturally appearing behind Cho Sae-ho as he greeted Son Heung-min's father, Son Woong-jung, was broadcast. Her stylish look with sunglasses perched on her head caught attention and showed an air befitting a former model.
Cho Sae-ho married Jung Su-ji, a former model nine years his junior, in October last year. The large wedding, which had more than 900 guests, drew attention, and they later shared their honeymoon in Italy on social media, attracting interest.
In particular, the image of "Cho Sae-ho standing on tiptoe" in the wedding photos became a focal point. He laughed it off, saying, "I remember a comment that it looked like a mother picking up a child from kindergarten."
Meanwhile, episode 120 of the YouTube show "Zzanbro," released on the 24th, was filmed a day before Cho Sae-ho's first wedding anniversary, and many newlywed episodes with his wife were revealed.
Nam Chang-hee exposed, "Do you meet just the two of you? Friends come along even on dates," but Cho Sae-ho said, "We will definitely spend the anniversary just the two of us," adding, "These days we also have a lot of time just for the two of us."
He also made an honest confession about height. "Fortunately my wife is tall so we even share clothes. We downplay each other's heights in conversation. My wife shrinks hers, and I raise mine..." he said, recalling their first meeting: "I felt intimidated because I'm short. Hyung (Shin Dong-yup) must have experienced that too, right?" He invoked Shin Dong-yup's "Lee So-ra dating days" and burst into laughter.
He also confessed, "Actually I like tall people, so without realizing it I said I was 170. No one asked, but I said it myself." Later, a health check measured him at 166.9 cm, creating a close call. "When my wife asked, 'What is that?' I hemmed and hawed. Still, I'm grateful I can look up to my wife," he said wittily.
Cho Sae-ho's wife is Jung Su-ji, who advanced to the finals of the 2009 SBS Supermodel contest, is 174–175 cm tall, and is known to currently work in the fashion industry. Cho Sae-ho has revealed on broadcasts and social media, "My wife is nine years younger, former model Jung Su-ji." The wife, whose beauty was first revealed at Son Heung-min's match and whose "height confession" was later shown on YouTube, has kept public interest in the couple going day after day.<
