[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Jeong-ho] Ham Yeon-ji, the eldest daughter of the Ottogi chairman and a musical actress, revealed that she was roommates with the granddaughter of the Nongshim chairman, drawing attention.

Ham Yeon-ji disclosed this fact on her YouTube channel 'Ham Yeonji' on the 12th. She began by saying that when she majored in acting at the Tisch School of the Arts at New York University, she lived with her roommate in a dormitory for one year.

Ham Yeon-ji said, "It turned out that my roommate was the granddaughter of the Nongshim chairman. Can you believe that?" and added, "We were originally middle school friends, but I only found out her identity just before entering university."

She then connected with the friend via phone. During the call, the friend described Ham Yeon-ji as "passionate, always having goals, and a lover."

Hearing this, Ham Yeon-ji added, "At that time, I was dating my husband. This friend knows my love story from the very beginning."

Also, Ham Yeon-ji's friend recalled a memorable incident, saying, "Our room was very messy, but later when cleaning, I found chocolate that had been gnawed only on the inside (by a mouse)," which aroused curiosity.

In response, Ham Yeon-ji said, "I had placed animal-shaped chocolates wrapped in gold foil near the bed, and there was a strange noise. The inside was perfectly gnawed. Was the mouse the most memorable thing during my time as a roommate?" she said, causing laughter.

Furthermore, the friend said, "I also heard the question, 'If the two of them are roommates, what kind of ramen would they cook?' and thought they would fairly eat Samyang Ramen," which caused bursts of laughter.

Meanwhile, Ham Yeon-ji is the eldest daughter of Ottogi chairman Ham Young-jun.

She debuted in 2014 with the musical 'Gone with the Wind' and is currently appearing in 'Chami.'
