On the latest episode of KBS 2TV's "Salim Nam 2" (Salim Men 2), singer Kwon Eunbi made a hilarious comment about Cha Eun Woo’s finances, leaving everyone in stitches.

During the December 14 broadcast, the cast discussed various topics, including the preparation process for Park Seo-jin's upcoming concert.

The conversation took a funny turn when Baek Ji-young brought up a blind date Park Seo-jin had, joking about him not ordering coffee.

Park Seo-jin awkwardly laughed off the comment, and Kwon Eunbi responded, "Did he order it himself? Then he's definitely cut off!"

When the topic shifted to marriage, Eun Ji-won playfully recommended that Park Seo-jin marry Yoyomi, with Baek Ji-young sharing her thoughts from experience, saying, "Yoyomi would be a good marriage partner. There would never be a dull moment," making everyone laugh.

The conversation took another unexpected twist when Ryu Hyun-jin suggested that Cha Eun Woo should be invited to a charity event. The producers jokingly introduced the idea of "Cha Eun Woo, who owes 10 billion won, and Park Seo-jin, who owns 10 billion won." Without missing a beat, Baek Ji-young responded, "Of course, it would be Seo-jin. He's handsome too."

Kwon Eunbi quickly joked, "But I think Cha Eun Woo will pay it back quickly," and Baek Ji-young agreed, adding, "I think so too. I’ll change my choice to Cha Eun Woo," causing the entire cast to burst into laughter.

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!
