[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kang Juhee] 'Burning Youth' actor Yoon Gi-won revealed an episode where he confessed to Kang Kyung-hun in the past but was rejected. However, Kang Kyung-hun herself did not remember this, causing laughter.

On the 30th broadcast of SBS's 'Burning Youth' (Bulcheong), Yoon Gi-won joined as a new friend, and actors Bruno and Kim Sun-kyung revisited, traveling with the youth to an island village by the Namhae Sea.

On this day, Bruno said, "It's been 7 months since I last came. I wanted to come, but I was filming another variety show. The schedules overlapped, so I wanted to appear but couldn't." He added, "Coming here after a long time feels like the first broadcast," sharing his thoughts on revisiting.

Kim Sun-kyung also said, "It feels like coming home. It was tough coming here, but now that I'm here, it's so nice." Kim Kwang-gyu asked, "The drama did well, so you must have earned a lot of money. Buy us drinks. Didn't you break the cable TV records? You beat 'Sky Castle,' right? Didn't you get a bonus?"

Kim Sun-kyung replied, "That's right. We set a new record," smiling proudly but confessed, "I didn't get a bonus."

Afterwards, the youth enjoyed eating kongguksu (cold soybean noodle soup) while admiring the emerald sea scenery. Kim Do-gyun exclaimed, "We came to Changwon and are having kongguksu and ice in front of Jinhae's sea. It's a great meal."

Then, the new friend Yoon Gi-won appeared wearing a helmet. Choi Sung-guk introduced him to the members, saying, "He is a junior from SBS's open recruitment talent. This is Yoon Gi-won."

He said, "An acquaintance is in Dongnae, Busan. I loaded my bike in the underground parking lot there and rode the bike from Busan to here. It took about an hour and a half."

Yoon Gi-won then surprised everyone by revealing that he once asked Kang Kyung-hun out. He said, "We went to shoot at a drama set in Suwon and then went to a seolleongtang (ox bone soup) restaurant. While eating, I suddenly blurted out, 'Would you like to try dating me?' and I was immediately rejected." Kang Kyung-hun responded, "I don't remember," looking embarrassed.

Hearing this, Kim Kwang-gyu said, "Kyung-hun was pretty back then," and the members booed Kim Kwang-gyu for his tactless comment. Shin Hyo-beom, who brought yeot (Korean taffy), joked, "She's still pretty now. Kwang-gyu, you eat yeot. Do you want to eat yeot?" causing laughter.
