Kim Jae-joong Reveals Evolved Ideal Type: 'I Want to Meet Someone with a Broad Perspective'

Singer Kim Jae-joong candidly shared how his ideal type has changed over time.

On the episode of KBS 2TV's variety show ‘Convenience Store Restaurant’ aired on the 7th, Kim Jae-joong hosted eight actors from his agency and prepared a meal for them.

When asked about his ideal type, Kim Jae-joong began, "In the past, I liked women who were stronger than me, or above me." He continued, "But as I've gotten older and my values have become more solid and firm, I now want to meet someone with a broader perspective." This revealed a significant shift in his views on relationships compared to the past.

Kim Jae-joong also touched upon the difficulty of timing in marriage, stating, "Marriage timing is really difficult. It's not something that can be decided solely by me." He then asked actors Choi Yu-ra and Kim Min-jae about their relationship: "How did you two meet?" The couple shared that they first met through the drama ‘Spy’, developed feelings for each other, and eventually married.

Notably, Kim Jae-joong recalled noticing their secret romance before they officially revealed it. He humorously shared, "For some reason, whenever actor Kim Min-jae was around, actress Choi Yu-ra was always by his side. They were always together. That's when I started to get a feeling," drawing laughter from the studio.

Netizens who watched the broadcast reacted with comments such as, 'Jae-joong's ideal type has changed,' 'I'm curious about who this person with a broad perspective is,' 'It's natural for values to change with age,' and 'Kim Min-jae and Choi Yu-ra's meeting story is really fascinating.'
