[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bong-ju] Jang Ye-won recalled the SBS interview she took in the past.

On the 15th, KBS2TV's 'Problematic Men in the Rooftop Room' featured Jang Ye-won and Jang Ye-in.

During the broadcast, Jang Ye-won said, "I took the SBS interview during university and kept advancing steadily," adding, "I passed on the first try."

When asked about the competition rate, Jang Ye-won said, "It was about 1900 to 1," and explained, "The announcer exam had about 6 or 7 rounds, including a pressure interview where they kept asking, 'You’re young, can you do it?' and 'Shouldn’t you study more and come back?' At that time, I confidently said, 'I can do it,' but it was heartbreaking."

Jang Ye-won continued, "After the interview, I came out crying, and someone was crying on the stairs," adding, "That was announcer Jo Jeong-sik, and afterward, a rumor spread that you have to cry to pass SBS."
