Veteran actresses Jung Ae-ri and Geum Bo-ra, both boasting 47 years in the industry, are set to appear on the KBS2 talk show 'Problem Child in House' (옥탑방의 문제아들).

The episode, scheduled to air on the 6th at 8:30 PM, will feature the two stars who are currently active in the KBS1 daily drama 'Marie and the Odd Father' (마리와 별난 아빠들).

During their appearance, Jung Ae-ri and Geum Bo-ra reminisced about their first encounter. When Geum Bo-ra couldn't recall their initial meeting, Jung Ae-ri playfully revealed, "I remember. Isn't that the day you threw your script?" Geum Bo-ra then looked back at the moment she exclaimed "I quit!" to the director and tossed the script aside.

The show will also unveil photos of Jung Ae-ri and Geum Bo-ra from their high school days, when they were renowned for their stunning beauty in the 1980s. Geum Bo-ra shared that during high school, she juggled academics with modeling and earned enough from a famous cosmetics advertisement to buy an apartment. She further confessed that her beauty was so striking, she couldn't walk around Shinchon, a popular area near her school. Jung Ae-ri humorously countered, "I went to school in Shinchon too, but I never heard that story," sparking laughter.

Additionally, Geum Bo-ra made a surprising proposal to Jung Ae-ri to become in-laws. Upon hearing that Jung Ae-ri received a 50 million won gift from her daughter, Geum Bo-ra exclaimed her envy, having received 1 million won from her son. She then passionately advocated for her sons to be potential suitors, turning the studio into a scene of delightful chaos.

Korean netizens are buzzing with anticipation for the episode. Comments include, 'Looking forward to the chemistry between Jung Ae-ri and Geum Bo-ra!', 'Curious to see photos of these 80s beauties from their school days!', and 'A marriage proposal? That sounds hilarious!'.
