In the photos, Jo Kwon and Gain look cozy, sharing warm poses like a back hug and pressing their faces close together. Their smiles and playful selfies highlight the strong bond they still share, showing that their friendship has endured even after their marriage ended.

The two first captured hearts when they joined the second season of We Got Married back in October 2009. Their chemistry as an older-younger couple made them fan favorites, and they were affectionately known as the "Adam Couple" due to their similar heights and charming interactions.

Despite this, her reunion with Jo Kwon shows that she is moving forward, and fans are hopeful to see her shine again.

Meanwhile, Jo Kwon has continued to thrive in his career as a musical actor, performing in popular shows like Evil Dead and Priscilla.

Fans can't help but feel nostalgic seeing the two together again. Their reunion reminds everyone of the fun and love they shared on We Got Married. It’s heartwarming to witness their enduring friendship, and many hope this meeting marks the beginning of new memories for the "Adam Couple."

Lee Kyung Gyu's star-making influence goes beyond Kang Ho Dong, as Hong Jin Kyung shares how he helped her kickstart her career.

On the April 24 episode of KBS 2TV’s Problem Child in House, legendary comedian Lee Kyung Gyu appeared as a guest—and a touching story from the past was revealed.

Hong Jin Kyung surprised everyone when she said, “He’s the teacher for all of us. Personally, he’s the one who helped me debut.” She even pinned a carnation flower on his chest to show her gratitude.

Lee Kyung Gyu smiled and said, “I still remember when Hong Jin Kyung walked up the stairs onto the stage for the first time.”

Hong Jin Kyung then shared her journey to becoming a star. “I joined a supermodel contest, but only the top 3 winners were noticed in broadcasting. I got a special prize, so I had no chance to be on TV."

She continued, "At first, I was just a backup for a show. But somehow, I became a regular the next week. I never knew why."

She added, "I thought the PD gave me a shot. But then one day, I randomly met Kyung Gyu sunbae, and he told me it was actually him who recommended me.”

Kim Sook asked with a smile, “So Kyung Gyu sunbae said nice things about you to the PD?”

Lee Kyung Gyu playfully replied, “Don’t say it in such a childish way,” making everyone laugh.

He then explained more seriously, “The show was Scoop TV Entertainment, and I was pretty much the main MC. When Jin Kyung showed up, I saw her determination and passion."

He added, "While others didn’t seem serious, she really stood out. I told the PD, ‘She seems unique. Why not keep her on the show?’”

Kim Jong Kook chimed in, “So if the main MC said that, doesn’t that mean you basically got her in?”

That made Lee Kyung Gyu happy. He grinned and replied, “Exactly! You speak well. Be like him!”

He added, “After that, Jin Kyung’s career took off. She started doing shows with Lee Young Ja and just kept going.”

Fans are now calling Lee Kyung Gyu not only a top MC, but also a quiet star-maker behind the scenes!
