[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kang Juhee] Comedian couple Choi Yang-rak and Paeng Hyun-sook showcased their wit on the radio show.

On the 22nd, the couple appeared as guests on the "Delicate World of Occupations" segment of KBS Cool FM's "Park Myung-soo's Radio Show."

That day, DJ Park Myung-soo introduced them by saying, "Representing comedian couples boasting a zero divorce rate, seniors Choi Yang-rak and Paeng Hyun-sook have come out. They are my mental pillars."

Paeng Hyun-sook said, "Park Myung-soo once appeared on 'Infinite Challenge' and mentioned my name with a penguin acrostic poem (Paeng Hyun-sook Queenka). Actually, Park Myung-soo is my benefactor. I was living in Sydney and came back to Korea when Choi Yang-rak was going through a slump. We were all in tough situations, but Park Myung-soo made that remark. He is a very grateful junior," she shared.

She then mentioned that she ranked 8th in a celebrity brand evaluation. She said, "I am 8th. Lee Hyori is 9th, Choi Yang-rak is 26th, and Park Mi-sun is 43rd. It's the first time in my life, so I have memorized it all."

In response, Choi Yang-rak joked, "Someone who never made it into the top 100 in their life is experiencing this," drawing laughter.

Park Myung-soo asked about their monthly income, a fixed question in the segment. Choi Yang-rak replied, "Honestly, I don't know. I don't manage the bank account. I get an allowance and spend it."

Paeng Hyun-sook revealed, "I've been managing the money for over 30 years. How happy is it that every couple lives without worrying about money after marriage? Choi Yang-rak lived like that. I made sure he didn't have to worry," surprising the audience.

She then explained their monthly income, "We don't have a fixed amount, so we don't really know. It's not exact. Just because I appear doesn't mean the appearance fee comes immediately."

Park Myung-soo asked Paeng Hyun-sook, "What do you spend the most on?" and she replied, "Choi Yang-rak's drinking and snack expenses. They can't be ignored," adding more laughter.
