Sayuri said, "He thought the woman's behavior towards me was inappropriate, so he scolded her. A week later, we met in the waiting room again, and he said, 'I couldn't stand her rude behavior, so I apologize on her behalf.' That's when I realized he's truly a great person."

Recalling the incident, Shin Dong-yup said, "It was during the 'Hello Counselor' recording. As a fellow Korean, I felt so embarrassed and sorry. I wanted to call out who it was because it was so disrespectful."

Sayuri praised Shin Dong-yup, saying, "He's the type who doesn't get angry about his own matters but can't stand seeing weaker people being bullied."

She also shared her fears, saying, "I'm worried about what might happen if there's a problem or an accident."
