Park Seo-jin Opens Up About Love Life and Rivalries on 'Jeon Hyun-moo Plan 3'

Park Seo-jin, appearing as a 'food friend' on 'Jeon Hyun-moo Plan 3', candidly addresses questions about his 'never-dated' status, ideal type, and rivals.

In the 19th episode of 'Jeon Hyun-moo Plan 3' (co-produced by MBN, Channel S, and SK Broadband) airing on the 20th, Jeon Hyun-moo and Kwak Tube (Kwak Jun-bin) explore the culinary delights of Pocheon with 'Janggu God' Park Seo-jin, revealing his thoughts on love and marriage.

Jeon Hyun-moo declares, "We're in Pocheon, but we won't be eating Idong galbi!" before leading the group to one of the top three tangsuyuk (sweet and sour pork) restaurants in the country. Soon, a colorful feast of 'sauced' tangsuyuk, spicy lajoyuk, ganja jjajang, and jjambbong is served, and the trio embarks on a sensory food adventure. As the meal progresses, Jeon Hyun-moo asks Park Seo-jin, "You've been single for 32 years, right?" sparking a conversation about romance. Park Seo-jin admits, "I've never been in a relationship," and confesses, "Outside of broadcasting, I've never even held a woman's hand." He also reveals, for the first time on air, the reasons behind his lack of romantic experiences, stemming from self-reflection.

Regarding his ideal type, Park Seo-jin humorously describes, "It's senior Kim Shin-young. It's still similar now. I like the 'teto girl' style, but the face can't be 'teto girl'." His comments prompt laughter, and Kwak Tube analyzes, "With such clear preferences, once he dates, he'll likely marry right away."

Following the lively romance talk, Jeon Hyun-moo teases, "Let's ask something more provocative," and inquires, "With young trot singers gaining popularity, where do you rank yourself?" He further presses with questions like, "Who do you think ranks below you?" and "Who is your rival?" leaving Park Seo-jin momentarily flustered. However, Park Seo-jin responds candidly, surprising everyone. When Jeon Hyun-moo mentions singer Son Tae-jin, who previously appeared as a 'food friend', Park Seo-jin hesitates, saying, "Well, as a singer, Son Tae-jin hyung..." leaving the set in stitches.

MBN and Channel S's 'Jeon Hyun-moo Plan 3' airs at 9:10 PM.
