The legendary goalkeeper Kim Young-kwang, a former national team player, and his wife will join 'Same Bed, Different Dreams Season 2 - You Are My Destiny' (hereafter 'Same Bed, Different Dreams').
On the 22nd, the SBS entertainment program 'Same Bed, Different Dreams' will feature the daily life of the newly joined couple, legendary goalkeeper Kim Young-kwang and Kim Eun-ji, who are both former national team players.
In a recent studio recording, actress Lim Soo-hyang made an appearance that caught attention. Lim Soo-hyang, a close friend of Kim Young-kwang's wife for 18 years, introduced herself as 'sister-in-law' and stepped in for the wife.
She revealed, "In the past, my brother wouldn't let my sister do anything," exposing Kim Young-kwang's excessive (?) restrictions, to which Kim Young-kwang responded, "I couldn't help it because I had to protect my beautiful wife," showcasing his 'goalkeeper instinct' and eliciting laughter.
The reason why Kim Young-kwang had to be a 'wife protector' was also revealed. Not only does his wife resemble Dara and Yewon in beauty, but she is also the director of a dermatology clinic in Cheongdam-dong, responsible for the skin care of top stars like Seo Kang-joon and Park Hyo-shin.
Kim Young-kwang introduced his wife as "the head of our household" and jokingly referred to himself as "at the level of a beggar," sharing updates on his life as a househusband. The studio was shocked by his confession that, unlike his charismatic goalkeeper image, he lives in a small clothing room of about 2 pyeong (approximately 6.6 square meters).
Kim Young-kwang's surprising spending habits were also revealed. Despite having a fixed income of 0 won, he continues to indulge in 'small but certain happiness' by collecting over 100 phone cases, indicating that his spending is anything but trivial.
In particular, Kim Young-kwang stated his principle of "never letting juniors spend money," and even declared that he would pay for Son Heung-min, who has an annual salary of 18.1 billion won, surprising everyone. However, it was revealed that all the cards used for payments were his wife's cards, known as 'Waka (Wife Card),' which brought laughter.
Kim Young-kwang's obsession did not stop at spending. He became so engrossed in mobile games that he ranked first in Korea. His wife, Kim Eun-ji, confessed, "I don't know why he lives like this," revealing a marital crisis, and Kim Gu-ra, who was watching, emphasized the need for change, saying, "If he continues like this, I can't guarantee anything in five years."
Meanwhile, the medical scene of Kim Eun-ji, who is active as a dermatologist in Cheongdam-dong, was also revealed for the first time. She reportedly shocked the cast by showcasing a so-called 'idol treatment' for her husband, creating a dramatic visual. Lim Soo-hyang, who witnessed this, stated, "A man who takes care of himself is my ideal type," and Kim Young-kwang increased expectations by mentioning a handsome football junior and suggesting a blind date.
The unexpected daily life of national team goalkeeper Kim Young-kwang and the glamorous activities of his wife Kim Eun-ji can be seen on 'Same Bed, Different Dreams,' airing on the 22nd at 10:10 PM.
