Kim Joo-ha Confesses 'Passionate Fandom' for Actor Lee Sung-min, Even Sent a Handwritten Letter!
MBN's new issue-maker talk show, ‘Kim Joo-ha’s Day & Night,’ is set to premiere on the 22nd at 9:40 PM, and host Kim Joo-ha is drawing attention with her unexpected confession of strong fandom for actor Lee Sung-min.
‘Kim Joo-ha’s Day & Night’ is a novel talk-tainment concept set in the 'Day & Night' magazine office. With Kim Joo-ha as the editor-in-chief, and Moon Se-yoon and Jo Jae-pil as editors, the show will feature in-depth interviews with celebrities from various fields, exploring diverse topics under the theme of ‘day and night, cold and passion, information and emotion.’
During a conversation with co-hosts Moon Se-yoon and Jo Jae-pil about potential guests, Kim Joo-ha made a surprising confession: “I really like actor Lee Sung-min. I’ve been a fan since before he became famous.” She further revealed that she had even sent a handwritten letter filled with her earnest desire to have him as a guest. All eyes are now on whether her fervent invitation will reach Lee Sung-min.
Meanwhile, Kim Joo-ha, who is transitioning from a news anchor of 27 years to an entertainment MC, provided comedic moments during the first recording by showing a bit of her ‘clumsy charm,’ such as not understanding new slang terms. She also surprised Moon Se-yoon and Jo Jae-pil by exhibiting her lingering anchor instincts even in the variety show setting. In a heartwarming moment, she apologized to the first guest, Kim Dong-geon, for not being in touch after her divorce, to which he responded with warm comfort, saying, “Getting divorced isn't a crime.”
The production team expressed confidence, stating, “Viewers will be able to see Kim Joo-ha’s entertaining side like never before in the first episode.” They added, “Please look forward to the deep talk with veteran MC Kim Dong-geon, who has been a broadcaster for 63 years, and the fresh chemistry between Kim Joo-ha, Moon Se-yoon, and Jo Jae-pil.” ‘Kim Joo-ha’s Day & Night’ will air its first episode on Saturday, November 22nd, at 9:40 PM.
Netizens reacted positively to the news, with comments like, “It’s refreshing to see news anchor Kim Joo-ha in an entertainment show,” “It would be amazing if actor Lee Sung-min could be a guest,” and “Looking forward to the chemistry with Mr. Kim Dong-geon.”
