Kim Won-hoon revealed that he has celebrated Ji Ye-eun's birthday every year, and there was an unexpected twist behind the reason.

On the 30th episode of SBS Running Man, comedian Kim Won-hoon appeared as a guest.

That day Yu Jae-seok congratulated Kim Won-hoon on winning the Blue Dragon Series Awards and mentioned his special friendship with Ji Ye-eun. In response, Ji Ye-eun exposed that before Kim Won-hoon's appearance on Running Man he told her, "Tell them all the gifts I gave," which drew laughter.

In fact, Kim Won-hoon said, "I always take care of her on her birthday every year," and revealed that he has consistently given gifts starting with a lamp when Ji Ye-eun moved. Then Ji Ye-eun, as if waiting for the moment, said, "I'll tell," and listed Chanel mist and Chanel lip balm, a COS bag, a rice cooker and more. Faced with a more lavish list of gifts than expected, Yu Jae-seok could not hide his surprise, and Yang Se-chan cast a suspicious look, asking, "Did you ask for these?"

Ji Ye-eun protested, saying, "My brother gave them to me," but Kim Won-hoon's rebuttal immediately followed. Kim Won-hoon revealed, "On Ye-eun's birthday she receives a message saying, 'Oppa what are you doing?' If you check, that day is her birthday," which made the set burst into laughter. The reason he diligently celebrated her birthday every year was Ji Ye-eun's subtle "birthday reminder."

Ji Ye-eun explained, "Because we're so close, that's how it is," adding, "You know it's my birthday, right? I gave you a gift too." But Kim Won-hoon said the gift he received was a "100% cotton short-sleeve T-shirt," adding, "It doesn't stretch," which brought another laugh.

Since Ji Ye-eun is recently publicly dating dancer Vata, the two's bickering close-friend chemistry attracted more attention. However, the episode revealed that day was, after all, a humorous birthday gift story born of a long friendship, which added to the laughter.
