[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Jeong-ho] Comedian Kim Ji-hye caught attention by saying that she once promised marriage with fellow comedian Kim Young-chul.


On the afternoon of the 22nd, the comprehensive programming channel JTBC's 'Knowing Bros' (hereafter 'Knowing Bros') featured comedian couple Park Joon-hyung and Kim Ji-hye, known as a celebrity couple, along with broadcaster Ham So-won and Jin Hua as transfer students.


That day, Kang Ho-dong surprised everyone by revealing, "Did you know that Young-chul can't get married because of Ji-hye? Didn't the two of them promise to get married?"


Hearing this, Kim Ji-hye said, "We did promise to get married. Young-chul and I are KBS juniors from the same year. I debuted at 20, and Young-chul was 25 then. At that time, I really wanted to date. So I consulted him a lot about dating because we were very close."


Furthermore, she said, "I told him, 'If I have three relationships from now on and none of them work out, let's promise to marry each other on the fourth one,'" surprising those around her.


At the same time, Kim Ji-hye added, "Joon-hyung was my third boyfriend. If I had broken up with Joon-hyung, Young-chul was waiting next. I didn't want that, so I married Joon-hyung quickly," which brought laughter.


Then, Kim Ji-hye revealed an episode with Kim Young-chul in a taxi. After finishing comedy practice and drinking, they took a taxi together. Kim Ji-hye said, "Kim Young-chul asked, 'Do you want to kiss?' I was a little drunk, so I hesitated for about 0.1 seconds, wondering 'Should I or shouldn't I?'" Park Joon-hyung, who was beside them, exploded with laughter, amusing everyone around.


A flustered Kim Young-chul protested, "I feel unfair all of a sudden. We weren't dating at that time," feeling wronged.


Additionally, Kim Ji-hye said, "I became a celebrity because I wanted to meet a handsome man, but I couldn't end my life there. I stopped the taxi right then. After that, he didn't talk about it anymore," she added.


Meanwhile, on the same day, Ham So-won revealed the story of her first meeting with her husband Jin Hua.


Ham So-won said, "I gave up on marriage at 38. I thought I was destined not to get married. I was happily living as a golden miss. When I was having fun in Guangzhou with friends, a friend posted a video on SNS."


She continued, "After seeing that, Jin Hua left a comment saying, 'We're having a party this weekend, do you want to come?' and Jin Hua actually came to that party," she explained.


She recalled, "While dancing, I looked at Jin Hua and he was so handsome. But that man said, 'Shall we go outside and talk?' My heart was pounding so hard, and I said okay. Jin Hua was waiting under the elevator, looking like an idol," reminiscing about the moment.


She added, "We talked all night. After finishing, he said, 'From now on, I will take care of you.' I thought it was a new generation way of expressing love. Jin Hua took me home and put a ring on my finger in front of my house. He took the ring from his own finger and put it on mine before letting me in," she added.



Meanwhile, 'Knowing Bros' airs every Saturday at 9 p.m.
