[Asia Economy Online Issue Team] Choi Soo-jong attracted attention by confessing the story behind him and his wife Ha Hee-ra sleeping in separate rooms after 28 years of marriage.

The celebrity power couple Choi Soo-jong and Ha Hee-ra appeared on SBS's 'Take Off Your Shoes, Divorcee Men' aired on the 3rd. Choi Soo-jong showed gentlemanly manners by taking care of Ha Hee-ra first, while Ha Hee-ra fed him a drink, saying the omija tea was delicious, showcasing their loving couple image from the start.

On that day, Choi Soo-jong appeared with his arm in a cast. Seeing this, the members jokingly scolded him, saying, "I heard you hurt your arm playing soccer. You're not a kid anymore."

Choi Soo-jong shared the story of injuring his arm during a soccer game and said, "For the first time in 28 years of marriage, we slept in separate rooms." When Ha Hee-ra explained, "After the surgery, we slept separately because I was worried about touching his injured arm while sleeping," he confessed, "I cried the night I slept alone." MC Tak Jae-hoon joked with jealousy, saying, "It's like a child who can't sleep the night before a school trip. A born actor," which made everyone laugh.

Ha Hee-ra recalled, "I heard he got injured while coming back from painting in the art studio," and said, "He told me, 'I'll pack my things and go home, I'll pray for you,' then hung up the phone, and my heart was pounding so much." Choi Soo-jong expressed his affection for his wife, saying, "Before feeling happy to have someone taking care of me, I felt very sorry to my wife who was taking care of me because I got hurt."

When mentioning their early dating days, Choi Soo-jong surprised everyone by answering "this morning" to the question, "Then when was your last kiss?" When MC Tak Jae-hoon asked, "Can't you fight just once?" he stopped the members in their tracks by saying, "Enduring and being patient for a long time is true love."
