Seo Jang-hoon was shocked by Jung Ae-yeon’s laid-back(?) side.
The SBS variety show ‘My Little Old Boy,’ which aired on the afternoon of the 1st, featured actress Jung Ae-yeon, a new face on the show.
On the show that day, Jung Ae-yeon arrived at an empty conference room and took out a stack of scripts for a musical she was preparing. It turned out she had embarked on a new challenge as a producer. Director Bong Man-dae supported her attempt, saying, “Should I call you Producer Jung?”
After letting loose at a company dinner, she was shown sleeping in bed in the same clothes she had worn out the previous day. Her mother, who lives with Jung Ae-yeon, said, “What time did you get home last night? Did you wash your face before bed? You should at least take off your makeup before sleeping,” and even made dried pollack soup for her daughter.
Watching video footage of Jung Ae-yeon’s untidy daily life, Seo Jang-hoon couldn’t take his eyes off the screen and said incredulously, “Is that really what you wear out?” Over a meal, Jung Ae-yeon’s mom asked, “Is there someone nice?”—asking whether she was seeing anyone. Jung Ae-yeon replied, “I’m so busy, where would I find someone? There really isn’t anyone. I’ve told the kids to introduce me to someone decent if they know anyone. But nobody’s introduced anyone. Why is that?”
Jung Ae-yeon’s mom delivered a blunt reality check, saying, “Are you too picky? You still have to get married.” Taken aback, Jung Ae-yeon playfully replied, “What do you mean, getting married? Mom, you have to live with me for the rest of your life,” drawing laughs.
Meanwhile, Jung Ae-yeon married actor Kim Jin-geun in 2009, but they divorced in 2021. Her ex-husband has custody of their son.
‘My Little Old Boy’ airs Sundays at 9:05 p.m. on SBS.
