Cha Tae-hyun and Kim Dong-hyun Share Candid Insights on Long-term Relationships and Marriage

Cha Tae-hyun opens up about his experiences with 'long-term dating before marriage.'

In the 27th episode of tvN's variety show 'Handsome Guys' (also known as 'Handsomez'), airing on the 12th, Cha Tae-hyun, Kim Dong-hyun, Lee Yi-kyung, Shin Seung-ho, and Oh Sang-wook, along with guest Dex, embark on a culinary adventure in the Achasan area of Seoul, recommending lunch and dinner spots.

During the episode, Cha Tae-hyun and Kim Dong-hyun candidly share their thoughts on dating and marriage in front of their 'single' younger colleagues, drawing attention. Lee Yi-kyung comments, "If I were a woman, I might like Dong-hyun. He's very charming and treats his wife well," testifying to Kim Dong-hyun's 'loving husband moments.'

Kim Dong-hyun, usually playful, reveals with a shy smile, "I dated for 10 years," painting the atmosphere with romance. He shares, "It was a cycle of breaking up and getting back together for 10 years, all because of my mistakes. But since getting married, we've never fought." Dex expresses admiration, calling Kim Dong-hyun a 'real man.'

Another 'first love and long-term relationship turned marriage' veteran, Cha Tae-hyun, adds intrigue. He asks Kim Dong-hyun, "Is it the same for you, where your wife scolds and forgives you repeatedly?" Kim Dong-hyun's emphatic agreement brings laughter to the group. The 'Handsomez' members visit an 'eel restaurant' for dinner recommendations, where Cha Tae-hyun admits, "I don't eat eel much anymore; it's too much energy," and seeks camaraderie with fellow 'father of three' Kim Dong-hyun.
