Ji Ye-eun Reveals Special Impression Of Kim Jong-kook & Song Ji-hyo On “Running Man”

On August 1st, Ji Ye-eun, who recently made headlines with her appearances on “Running Man” and “SNL Korea”, had an interview at CP Entertainment building in Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul.

Ji Ye-eun expressed satisfaction when talking about her chemistry with “Running Man” members. She said, “I realized that there was a reason for them to run for a long time. All of them are so warm and kind. I already liked ‘Princess Hours’ when I was young. I still watch ‘Princess Hours’ and ‘Full House’ again. It’s such an honor to meet actress Song Ji-hyo in person”.

Praising Song Ji-hyo, Ji Ye-eun said, “She’s really pretty. She’s a senior so I was a little nervous about meeting her, but she greeted me coolly, making it more comfortable for me to approach her”. She shared, “I asked her if I could call her ‘sister’ because I wanted to become close to her and she said, ‘Are you still not doing it now?’”, adding “I gave her a Kitty couple keyring. We wear the keyrings together”.

Ji Ye-eun then expressed her appreciation for Ji Seok-jin, Haha and Yang Se-chan for their jokes that made her feel more comfortable on the set. 

In addition, the actress selected Kim Jong-kook as the most unexpected member. She said, “He looks very serious on TV. I didn’t have high expectations that I would feel comfortable with him. However, he took great care of me and it surprised me every time.”

Earlier in January, Ji Ye-eun signed an exclusive contract with her new company CP Entertainment. She is the second artist to join the company following Shin Dong-yeop.
