Ji Ye-eun's Personality Revealed on 'Anytime, Anywhere'

Ji Ye-eun's personality was humorously exposed on the latest episode of SBS's variety show 'Anytime, Anywhere,' which aired on the 17th.

Actors Jung Sang-hoon and Ji Ye-eun appeared as 'Anytime Friends' on the show. During the episode, Ji Ye-eun checked her appearance with a small hand mirror after enjoying some chewy cookies from Dubai. Yoo Jae-suk teased her, saying, "Isn't that mirror too small? It seems like your whole face won't fit," to which Ji Ye-eun jokingly replied, "My face is this small. It's really not great. Everything here is not great," bringing laughter to the set.

Jung Sang-hoon, who has known Ji Ye-eun since their 'SNL' days, revealed, "Ye-eun has changed from before. She's become quite a star. When I went to greet her in the parking lot, she just rolled down her car window and extended her hand, saying 'Senior,' so I ended up shaking her hand and saying 'How have you been?'"

Ji Ye-eun, caught off guard, explained, "It's a misunderstanding. No, it's a misunderstanding," adding, "I was wearing shoes. I was just trying to greet you quickly. You know my personality." When Jung Sang-hoon asked, "What if it was Jae-suk?" Ji Ye-eun humorously retorted, "It would be the same. Senior, that's just your inferiority complex," causing laughter.

On the bus, Yoo Jae-suk found an empty seat and said, "I'm sorry. I need to sit for a bit," and sat at the back with Yoo Yeon-seok. Seeing Ji Ye-eun left alone, Yoo Yeon-seok couldn't help but join her, and they chatted so much that they missed their stop.

When they had to get off at the next stop, Yoo Jae-suk playfully scolded, "What do we do if we miss the stop?" Ji Ye-eun smiled and said, "You were completely charmed by me."

Jung Sang-hoon praised his junior, saying, "Suddenly, you're drawn to Ye-eun, right?" Yoo Jae-suk added, "Ye-eun has many friends in the entertainment industry," mentioning Yoon Nam-no, Yang Se-chan, Yoo Hee-kwan, and Mickey Kwang-soo, and emphasized, "They really like Ye-eun," bringing more laughter.

Meanwhile, Ji Ye-eun expressed her gratitude during her acceptance speech for the Excellence Award at the 2025 SBS Entertainment Awards, explaining why she cried, "I tear up when I see the 'Running Man' seniors. It's not because I remember the hard times, but because they called me a lot when I was struggling. Senior Jae-suk also called me a lot," showing her appreciation. Yoo Jae-suk jokingly added, "I told her to just shut up and do it."

Ji Ye-eun took a break from activities for about two months starting in late August last year due to health issues, including hypothyroidism.
