Kim Jaejoong's mother expressed her disappointment upon hearing about T-ara's Hyomin's marriage.

On the October 25th episode of KBS2TV's 'New Release, Pyeonstorang,' Kim Jaejoong and his mother were seen having a phone conversation with Hyomin, a former member of T-ara.

During the episode, Kim Jaejoong visited his parents' house to tend to their garden and prepare side dishes to stock the refrigerator. Demonstrating his culinary skills, he made nabak-kimchi, stating, "Kimchi is simple." His mother, observing him, repeatedly mentioned her grandchild.

Kim Jaejoong joked, "When the baby arrives, won't I become a grandfather?" His father replied, "Aren't you already one?" Kim Jaejoong then revealed that he had once introduced a girlfriend to his family. His mother recalled, "Wasn't she the one you brought home? Wasn't she too young?" To which Kim Jaejoong humorously responded, "What do you mean young? It was back in middle school."

Kim Jaejoong reminisced, "Back then, the internet was new, and I chatted online. We exchanged photos and felt a connection, so I went to meet her." His mother added, "Her parents brought her from Daegu to Gongju because she wanted to see you. You can still contact her now," expressing her wish for Kim Jaejoong to marry.

While making kimchi, Kim Jaejoong video-called Hyomin. Explaining the call, he said, "We're neighbors, so I used to share side dishes with her." His mother inquired about their relationship, to which Kim Jaejoong clarified, "She got married recently." Hyomin apologized, saying, "I'm sorry," and his mother requested, "Introduce him to a good friend." Hyomin promised, "I'll look into it," bringing laughter.

Meanwhile, Kim Jaejoong, born in 1986, previously discussed his wealth on Joo Woojae's YouTube channel. He mentioned, "I sold cars and real estate and reinvested, but I would need about 1 trillion won." He added, "It's impossible to earn that much; the structure doesn't allow it."
