[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bong-ju] Sports trainer Yang Chi-seung selected actor Oh Jae-mu as his eye contact partner on the variety show 'Eye Contact'.


On the 14th broadcast of Channel A's 'Eye Contact', Yang Chi-seung and Oh Jae-mu appeared.


During the show, Yang Chi-seung said, "There is someone I want to kill. I can't even stand to see him. It's not just once or twice, but for several months. I've tried talking nicely, getting annoyed, and getting angry, but it didn't work. I thought I should talk about it on the program instead of being nice, so I came out."


He continued, "He is the only blemish in my life. I want to kill him. There is a parasite-like guy at the gym," referring to Oh Jae-mu as his eye contact partner.


Oh Jae-mu debuted in 2010 on KBS with 'Bread, Love and Dreams'. At that time, he played the young version of the main character Kim Tak-gu.


When the 'Eye Contact' production team asked why he appeared on the show, Oh Jae-mu replied, "I only know that the director called me. I really can't guess. We saw each other just yesterday and the day before, and if there was anything to say, he would say it right away. I'm worried about what he might say by going on the show unnecessarily," which brought laughter.


Oh Jae-mu expressed his fondness for trainer Yang Chi-seung, saying, "We joke around and really feel like neighborhood friends. There's a 24-year age difference, but when we joke, don't we feel like friends?"


On the other hand, Yang Chi-seung expressed dissatisfaction about Oh Jae-mu, saying, "I taught him for three years, but I haven't been teaching him recently. There's no point in teaching him anymore."



Regarding the reason, he said, "(Oh Jae-mu) comes to the gym and asks the trainers to buy him food. He just stamps in for attendance, doesn't work out, and just spends time. He comes to the gym to hang out," which caused laughter.
