Ji Sang-ryeol, a popular South Korean TV host, has received a significant push towards marriage from his celebrity friends. Ji is currently in a public relationship with Shin Bo-ram, who is 16 years his junior.
On the October 25th episode of KBS 2TV's 'Men Who Do Housework Season 2', Ji's close friends Shin Dong-yup and Park Seo-jin joined forces to encourage Ji's marriage plans.
The episode featured a surprise appearance by the renowned 'National MC' Shin Dong-yup, who showed up solely to support Ji Sang-ryeol. Shin expressed his hope for Ji to finally tie the knot, showcasing their 30-year friendship.
The duo engaged in a lively discussion, pressing the 57-year-old bachelor Ji about his relationship and marriage plans. Shin Dong-yup, having observed Ji for years, noted, "I've never seen him like this," expressing confidence in Ji's marriage prospects and encouraging a spring wedding.
Shin Bo-ram, Ji's girlfriend, also made an appearance, meeting Ji's friends for the first time. The gathering resembled a formal family meeting, with Park Seo-jin asking unexpected questions that left Ji and Shin Bo-ram momentarily flustered.
Shin Dong-yup, who previously promised to provide everything but the house if Ji marries, offered practical advice from his own marriage experience, supporting the couple's future together.
