Kim Jong Kook Exposes New Details About His Mysterious Non-Celebrity Wife And Private Wedding
Kim Jong Kook hasn’t revealed much about his private life since getting married earlier this month, but fans finally got to hear a little more on the latest episode of Running Man. The star’s castmates couldn’t hide their curiosity, leading to new details about his wife surfacing on-air.
The September 21 broadcast of SBS’s Running Man turned into a lighthearted celebration for Kim Jong Kook’s marriage. During the episode, Cha Tae Hyun attempted to sketch his wife, describing her as “graceful, with big, beautiful eyes.” Ji Suk Jin chimed in, pointing out that her face is slim and she doesn’t have single eyelids.
Yoo Jae Suk, always quick with questions, asked what she was currently up to.

The members also discussed the congratulatory money they had given for the wedding. Kim jokingly scolded Yoo Jae Suk for being overly generous, only for Yoo to brush it off modestly. He reacted the same way toward Yang Se Chan, who laughed and said it was only natural to give that amount.
When it came to Ji Suk Jin, however, Kim simply thanked him, which led to playful teasing from the rest of the cast. Ji defended himself, insisting that he had given more than he ever had in his life.
