Korean Fencing Stars Praise Teammate Oh Sang-wook's Marriage Aspirations

Oh Sang-wook, who wishes to marry by the age of 35 after retirement, received praise from his colleagues.

On the 22nd episode of the ENA variety show 'Hyunmoo Kase' aired on the 22nd, South Korean fencing heroes 'New Avengers' Koo Bon-gil, Oh Sang-wook, Do Kyung-dong, and Park Sang-won appeared and discussed various topics.

In response to the prompt 'Choose the person you would date if you were a woman,' Do Kyung-dong and Oh Sang-wook each received two votes. Koo Bon-gil explained his choice of Do Kyung-dong by saying, "If I were a woman, Sang-wook would be overwhelming. He's too handsome and perfect."

Koo Bon-gil added, "Kyung-dong has a warm style that MZ generation likes. He's kind and would be good in a relationship." He continued, "Sang-wook is not the type of man who would only want me. He's too popular, which makes me anxious." Jeon Hyun-moo praised Do Kyung-dong, saying, "He gives off a Choi Woo-shik vibe—friendly and warm."

Park Sang-wook commented on Oh Sang-wook, saying, "If I were a woman, I'd want to lean on him." He explained his choice of Do Kyung-dong by saying, "He's my roommate and takes care of me in a tsundere way." Do Kyung-dong, who chose Oh Sang-wook, also remarked, "I share a room with him and can't find any flaws."

Do Kyung-dong added, "We've often slept together in a room with one bed. I joke around and hug him while sleeping. And he's incredibly handsome."

In a situation where they had to choose the person with the biggest difference between their game and everyday demeanor, Park Sang-won received three votes. Koo Bon-gil vividly described, "He's quiet and calm in everyday life, but once he enters a game, he becomes a 'roaring beast.' I think having that intensity helps his focus. Sang-won moves like a bowstring in action."
