Hong Younggi stuns in bikini, shares candid dating stories

Hong Younggi, an influencer and entrepreneur who rose to fame through 'Ulzzang Generation', has drawn significant attention not only for her provocative bikini photos but also for her unfiltered remarks regarding marriage and dating.

Appearing as a guest on the YouTube channel 'No Back Tak Jae-hoon' released on the 8th, Hong shared various stories using her signature honest speaking style. Amidst the buzz surrounding her recent underboob-style bikini photos shared on SNS, Tak Jae-hoon asked, "If you walk around like that outside, don't men approach you a lot because they don't realize you're a mother?"

To this, Hong answered without hesitation, "They do a lot," drawing laughter. When Tak followed up by asking, "Have you ever thought that you wish you hadn't married so quickly?" she wittily replied, "I thought that just yesterday," causing the set to burst into laughter.

Hong's bold wit did not stop there. She jokingly expressed her desires, saying, "I want to meet men from all over the world," and "I want to meet people of every race from different countries," which amused the MCs. Her characteristic honest and cheerful variety sense led the atmosphere throughout the broadcast.

The episode also revealed her glamorous popularity and dating stories dating back to her school years. Hong shared an anecdote from her time on 'Ulzzang Generation' when she gained explosive popularity and even received fan letters from prison inmates, and she also drew attention by candidly revealing an episode from her middle school years when she dated several boys at the same time.

Currently, however, she leads a busy life as a mother of two and a businesswoman. Having made her name through Comedy TV's 'Ulzzang Generation' in 2009, she married Kim Se-yong, who is three years younger, in 2012, and they have two sons.

Alongside her broadcasting activities, Hong continues her successful path as an entrepreneur running an online shopping mall. This past February, she drew massive attention by revealing that she recorded approximately 160 million won in sales just 10 minutes after starting a live broadcast, with daily maximum sales exceeding 420 million won.

Following the broadcast, netizens showed intense interest, reacting with comments such as, "As expected of Hong Younggi's honesty," "Her wit is still refreshing," "She's so sensible with her jokes," and "She's a successful CEO with great variety skills."
