On the December 4 broadcast, actors Yoo Sun and Oh Min-seok appeared as guests on Problem Child in House, reuniting as stage partners and sharing their chemistry. During the episode, Oh Min-seok surprised everyone by revealing an unexpected story about Kim Jong-kook.
Oh Min-seok, who is known to be extremely introverted, shared that Kim Jong-kook had once helped him feel less isolated on the set of My Little Old Boy.
“I was new to that chaotic variety environment and didn’t know when to speak. Jong-kook hyung noticed and told me, ‘You go ahead and say something once,’” he recalled with gratitude.
The conversation soon shifted to Kim Jong-look’s recent marriage a topic that still shocks many, including close colleagues. Oh Min-seok laughed, saying, “The idea of Jong-kook hyung dating, let alone getting married, was unimaginable. I wondered how he even managed to date.”
Kim Jong-kook responded with humor: “That’s why I always say I almost didn’t date at all before marriage. I’m dating now that I’m married.”
Adding to the excitement, Oh Min-seok who also reads palm lines and tarot cards shared that Kim Jong-kook once received a reading showing strong baby fortune.
“When a woman appears in the card, it usually means pregnancy energy. Jong-kook hyung had good romance fortune and a high chance of pregnancy. Pomegranates symbolize fertility too,” he explained.
When fellow cast members encouraged the idea of a “good news announcement,” Kim Jong-kook kept his stance realistic: “It would be great, but I don’t obsess over it. What matters is that we’re happy.”
The episode also included another amusing revelation: According to Yang Se-chan, Kim Jong-kook once got a face-drawing penalty on Running Man, but refused to wipe it off immediately.
“He said, ‘I want to show this to my wife at home,’” Yang Se-chan said, teasing him.
Kim Jong-kook quickly clarified, “He’s sugarcoating it! HaHa said, ‘Your wife needs to see how hard you work to make money.’ Don’t dramatize my life.”
Toward the end of the show, Oh Min-seok admitted the marriage of people around him including Kim Jong-kook made him rethink his own future.
He even revealed he’s currently in contact with someone, prompting Hong Jin-kyung to remark, “So everything is pink for you these days.”
Kim Jong-kook offered some grounded advice: “When you’re older, you need to be careful. You might miss opportunities but you still must stay thoughtful.”
The heartwarming and humorous episode has drawn attention from fans who continue to follow Kim Jong-kook’s new chapter as a married man now with whispers of baby fortune added to the mix.
