[Asia Economy Reporter Kang Hyesoo] On the afternoon of the 21st, JTBC's 'Star Direct Deal - Yulang Market' aired, revealing the interesting relationship between longtime friends Shin Dong and Choi Yeo-jin.
On that day, Seo Jang-hoon, Jang Yoon-jung, and Yoo Se-yoon visited Super Junior's Shin Dong's smart house in Hanam-dong. Jang Yoon-jung explained the reason for visiting Shin Dong's house, saying, "Shin Dong appeared as an intern in episode 3. At that time, he asked the production team to definitely call him later."
Choi Yeo-jin, who was there, added, "Shin Dong originally likes mechanical things. He was surprised when he saw an old laptop at my house before." Hearing this, Seo Jang-hoon asked, "How did you two become close?"
Shin Dong replied, "We greeted each other on broadcasts but weren't close. Then we hosted a golf program together, and spending a long time together, talking a lot and having a drink, we became close."
The two are two years apart, with Shin Dong born in 1985 and Choi Yeo-jin in 1983. Jang Yoon-jung said, "That's the perfect age. Do you know how good that is?" making Shin Dong and Choi Yeo-jin burst into laughter.
Also, Seo Jang-hoon mentioned a past case where the two had chosen each other as good marriage partners. When Jang Yoon-jung encouraged them, "Tell us why you pointed to each other," Shin Dong and Choi Yeo-jin pushed each other to go first, creating a playful atmosphere.
Shin Dong confessed, "Choi Yeo-jin is the type who makes wise choices. When I was wondering whether to buy this or that, she told me, 'Don't do it. Don't spend money,' and helped me well." Choi Yeo-jin said, "Shin Dong is generous. Because of some unknown anxiety, I told him to save well," leaving a lingering remark, "If you have something saved up, take good care of it..."
Then Seo Jang-hoon summarized, "It's better to save well for our uncertain future," which made the audience laugh as Choi Yeo-jin and Shin Dong did not show any refusal.
Finally, Shin Dong said, "I really like it, and sometimes it feels like having a brother. So I think both marriage partners and girlfriends would be good," adding, "I really didn't want to say this, but definitely, her looks are not my style." To that, Choi Yeo-jin agreed, saying, "Me too."
JTBC's entertainment program 'Star Direct Deal - Yulang Market' airs every Sunday at 7:40 PM.
