In the episode, Kim Jaejoong shared he was busy traveling these days, especially to Japan for work, and even shared that he ranked number one in Japan’s list of Top 10 Male K-pop Idols Who Japanese Women Want to Marry in 2022.

It’s because this is our generation. We all said stuff like this during our time.
