Korean baseball star Ryu Hyun-jin humorously revealed details about raiding fellow athlete Choo Shin-soo's fridge during a recent episode of JTBC's variety show 'Please Take Care of My Refrigerator'.

The episode, which aired on the 14th, featured hosts Kim Sung-joo and Ahn Jung-hwan, along with chefs Choi Hyun-seok, Kim Poong, Sam Kim, Son Jong-won, Yoon Nam-no, Kwon Sung-joon, and Park Eun-young. During the show, Choo Shin-soo's refrigerator was unveiled, sparking interest among viewers.

Host Kim Sung-joo mentioned, "There's a rumor that Ryu Hyun-jin and his wife raided Choo Shin-soo's fridge in the U.S." Ryu, with a sheepish grin, confirmed the story. He shared, "Whenever I visit Shin-soo's house, I drink the best water. His storage is filled with top-quality water and healthy foods."

Ryu humorously added, "When Shin-soo was drunk, I told him, 'I'm taking this,' and my wife and I helped ourselves. We took advantage of Shin-soo's generosity quite a bit." Choo, in response, joked, "I knew about it. I was a bit tipsy, but the next day, seeing the empty spaces in the fridge made me feel a bit sad," causing laughter in the studio.

Choo also showcased the refrigerator he uses in Korea, drawing attention. He expressed his affection for his wife, saying, "She makes tofu from scratch, and it's better than any store-bought tofu. It's something only I get to enjoy."

Choo Shin-soo, who married Ha Won-mi in 2004, has two sons and a daughter. After a successful career in Major League Baseball, Choo retired last year. His career earnings reportedly amount to 190 billion won.
