Korean Comedian Shim Hyun-seop Confirms Fertility with Urology Checkup Ahead of Wedding

Shim's fiancée, Jung Young-rim, expressed her desire for children, saying, "When we travel with family, everyone has kids. They treat them with such care. It would be nice if we had one too." Shim agreed, adding, "If we have a child, I want to raise them well," but also voiced concerns about his age, "At 54, can I still be vigorous?" He mentioned that a fellow married friend, Lee Chun-soo, had booked him an appointment for a sperm test, which made him nervous.








Shim underwent both urine and semen tests. When asked by a nurse if he had brought any videos, Shim humorously replied, "I don't have any adult videos." Lee then offered a 19+ film, lightening the mood. After about 15 minutes, Shim emerged exhausted, resting briefly on Lee's knee.
Shim also had a prostate exam, which made him anxious upon seeing the probe. Lee, having experienced it before, encouraged him, saying, "A healthy man means a healthy woman. It's for your fiancée."
After the tests, Shim received his results. The doctor was amazed, stating, "With a sperm count of 98 million, you're like a sperm king. It's at the level of someone in their 20s or 30s. It's the highest count since the clinic opened." His testosterone level was also significantly above average.
The doctor concluded, "With these numbers, there's no issue with conceiving." When Shim jokingly asked how many children he could have, Lee quipped, "98 million. Your fiancée will be thrilled," bringing laughter. Jung Young-rim, upon hearing the results, was both amused and relieved.
