Kim Yeon-kyung responds to Park Myung-soo's attempt to recruit her, saying, "We're not close."
The 261st episode of KBS2's entertainment show 'The Boss's Ears Are Donkey Ears' (hereinafter referred to as 'Donkey') recorded a viewership rating of 4.4% (nationwide), and the instantaneous highest viewership rating soared to 6.7% (nationwide), ranking 1 in the same time slot on all channels for 110 consecutive weeks. The above record was set.
Park Myung-soo personally went out of his way to invite Kim Yeon-kyung, the ‘volleyball queen’ recognized around the world, as a radio guest. When Ji-sun Jeong questioned Park Myung-soo, who was shrinking in front of Kim Yeon-kyung, saying, "Didn't you say you're close?", Kim Yeon-kyung said, "You're not close," and reacted awkwardly to the MZ flower balloon prepared by Park Myung-soo, causing a burst of laughter.
Kim Yeon-kyung is about to compete in an event that also serves as the national team retirement ceremony. Kim Yeon-kyung, who has played in 271 international games since being selected as a youth national team member at the age of 16 and has made new history by playing as a member of the women's national volleyball team for 17 years, said, "I want to be remembered as a good player," and revealed the reason behind her decision to retire. Kim Yeon-kyung said that the reason she did not go to the European league even after going through a slump during her career as a Turkye player and moving to the Chinese league and regaining her confidence was, “I took an 80% cut in my annual salary, but at the time, I wanted to return to the domestic league and prepare for the Olympics.” It left a calm impression. In addition, he said, “The pension amount is not large because I do not have an Olympic medal, but I am just grateful to receive the pension.” The reason for recently establishing a youth support scholarship foundation was also stated, “I want to help young people who are talented but have difficulties to demonstrate their abilities.”
Park Myung-soo asked Kim Yeon-kyung, who said, “I have a lot of things I want to do,” to appear as the ‘Sad Angel’ boss, but was worried that he would lose his fixed position. Afterwards, Park Myung-soo asked to appear on a 'radio show', but when Kim Yeon-kyung received an offer to DJ at her retirement ceremony, he tried to negotiate by saying, "We will give you a 30% discount until August," which embarrassed Kim Yeon-kyung. Park Myung-soo, who became desperate, earnestly asked, “Please come on the radio,” but the pleasant meeting ended with Kim Yeon-kyung defending herself tightly, saying, “I’ll talk to you later.”
Hotel boss Kim Heon-seong's impressive motor show has been unveiled. The roads of Gangneung were spectacular with a parade of 46 supercars worth 15 billion won, and supercars that are not easily seen, including the 1 billion won Lamborghini, which was shipped in a limited edition of 800 units worldwide, moved to the motor show exhibition hall. Park Myung-soo, who was watching the video, recalled the Rolls-Royce he owned in the past and confessed, “I was so worried about the car that I changed my car after two months.” The last supercar to appear in the exhibition hall was the racing car of professional car racer Park Jae-hong, who kept his promise to Kim Heon-seong. The Revolution, a 500-horsepower hand-built British car, one of only four in Asia, made a majestic appearance with a heavy exhaust sound, but when Jaehong Park actually got out of the car, he pulled out the steering wheel and took off his shoes as if escaping, making people laugh. The motor show was open to the general public, and Kim Heon-seong, who planned supercar drawings for children, showed his professional spirit by not losing his smile even though he was upset by the children diligently scribbling all over his car.
In particular, the couple Seven and Lee Da-hae visited Kim Heon-seong to show off their friendship, and the children's drawings were completed like a single work of art, capturing attention. Following the exhaust sound performance, Kim Heon-seong personally participated in the supercar parade, the final event of the motor show. Kim Heon-seong, who ran down the coastal road showing off his presence, said, “As I prepared hard, the result came out well. “I’m looking forward to next year even more,” he said, expressing his pride.
