Hong Joo Yeon has finally broken her silence on rumors that she is dating or planning to marry Jeon Hyun Moo, who is 20 years older than her.
On the March 16 episode of KBS2’s 2 Days & 1 Night Season 4, the members explored different areas within KBS as part of their “KBS Survival” special.
During the episode, Lee Joon and DinDin stopped by the KBS announcer’s office, where they met announcer Jung Eun Hye, also known as “KBS Karina”.
DinDin jokingly said, “Aren’t you the one who played ‘Kespa’ Karina? Joon hyung likes Karina,” making Lee Joon flustered as he denied it, saying, “Why are you just making things up?”
Later, they ran into announcer Hong Joo Yeon, who recently made headlines for dating and marriage rumors with Jeon Hyun Moo after appearing on Boss in the Mirror. She was even called his “unofficial girlfriend”, and a wild rumor claimed they were getting married in May.
DinDin directly asked her why she hadn’t responded to the rumors, and she casually replied, “What could I even say in response?”
Not letting it go, DinDin pressed further, saying, “KBS announcers have gotten bold. Are you not going to take strong action against the dating reports?” Hong Joo Yeon firmly denied everything, saying, “I’m not getting married—not in March, not in May, not at all.”
When asked if she even keeps in touch with Jeon Hyun Moo, she shut down the speculation, saying, “We don’t talk personally. We don’t message each other.”
Meanwhile, announcer Jung Eun Hye, who is often compared to Karina, was revealed to be a Seoul National University graduate, majoring in Applied Life Chemistry.
DinDin also playfully teased her about her nickname, saying, “You don’t seem to hate being called ‘the Karina of announcers,’ do you?” To which she humbly replied, “I’m just grateful. It’s more than I deserve.”
