Kim Jong-kook’s marriage, which Yoo Jae-suk also gave up “I’m learning a lot about ideals and reality through ‘Couple Palace'”

On January 30th, the online press conference for Mnet’s large-scale couple matching survival show “Couple Palace” (directed by CP Lee Seon-young and PD Jung Min-seok) was held. In attendance were CP Lee Seon-young, PD Jung Min-seok, Kim Jong-kook, Yoo Se-yoon and Mijoo.

Kim Jong-kook talked about “Couple Palace”, “I’m learning a lot about ideals and reality through this program. I’m approaching it with a mindset of studying.“

He emphasized that “Couple Palace” is a differentiated program where you can see people who seem like those around us. In reality, people have various thoughts about marriage, and you can understand such reality through this program.

Kim Jong-kook responded to the question “Do you have any thoughts about participating as a single person?” by saying, “I even asked the production team to give me a number. I also felt the desire to participate on the spot. I constantly thought about what I would do in that situation.”

Meanwhile, Kim Jong-kook’s marriage became a hot topic recently when it was revealed that “Yoo Jae-suk also gave up“. This happened when Lee Kyung-kyu, during the live broadcast of the “2023 SBS Entertainment Awards” at the end of last year, asked Kim Jong-kook, who was a nominee for the grand prize, about his marriage intentions.

Kim Jong-kook replied, “I want to get married and I will do it. I should do it quickly… I’ll do it. I should do it. I don’t know when but I’ll try to do it as fast as I can.” However, his close friend Haha caused laughter as he added, “He’s been talking about that for 20 years. Yoo Jae-suk already gave up on waiting. Did he lower his standard or was it Britney? You’re dating well in LA, right? I hope you get married quickly for the sake of your children. Then you can focus more on ‘Running Man’, right?“
