Korean TV Host Jun Hyun-moo Reveals His Lavish Wedding Gift Standards

Jun Hyun-moo, a prominent South Korean television host, is set to reveal his extravagant wedding gift standards, which are rumored to exceed an annual income of approximately 4 billion won (around $3.4 million).

On the upcoming episode of KBS2's variety show 'The Boss Has Donkey Ears' (Episode 354), airing on the 26th at 4:40 PM, Jun Hyun-moo will disclose all about his wedding gift practices, drawing significant attention. He stated, "The highest amount I've given as a wedding gift is 5 million won (approximately $4,200). If I add up all the gifts I've given, it amounts to billions," showcasing his extraordinary generosity.

Interestingly, Jun Hyun-moo admitted that he doesn't remember who received his highest gift of 5 million won, as it was for multiple acquaintances, earning him the nickname 'big spender in the wedding gift world.' He humorously added, "For someone attending their second wedding, I gave a reduced amount," revealing his unique standards despite his lavish spending.

Jun Hyun-moo, who has hinted at a grand wedding, stated, "Everything about my wedding will be decided by my future bride," and added, "I will let her choose who sings at the wedding." Comedian Kim Sook humorously responded, "Where's the bride?" and suggested Park Myung-soo for the wedding song. Park Myung-soo jokingly declared, "If the bride doesn't want me, I'll secretly perform with earplugs on her," showing his determination. Jun Hyun-moo quickly chose his close friend K.Will over Park Myung-soo, adding to the laughter.

Previously, on Channel A's variety show 'Rumor Has It,' it was estimated that Jun Hyun-moo's annual income from programs, advertisements, and events was around 3 to 4 billion won. Given that the show aired eight years ago, his current income is likely much higher.

According to the real estate industry, Jun Hyun-moo resides in a 59-pyeong (approximately 2,100 square feet) apartment in 'I-Park Samsung' located in Gangnam-gu, Seoul. When he moved there in 2021, the apartment was valued in the mid-4 billion won range. Last year, a similar unit sold for 6.1 billion won, marking an increase of over 1 billion won in just three years.
