Ji Sang-ryeol surprises Kim Ha-yeon with wedding gift a year after her marriage

Actress Kim Ha-yeon expressed her gratitude to entertainer Ji Sang-ryeol, who belatedly presented her with a wedding gift one year after her marriage. Although late, the senior's thoughtful gesture created a heartwarming moment as Kim responded with witty well-wishes.

On the 6th, Kim posted a photo on her SNS with the caption, "Sang-ryeol Oppa, whom I met again at Salon House after my marriage."

The photo captures Kim and Ji facing each other in the waiting room of JTBC's "Salon House with a Story." The scene where Ji hands a wedding gift envelope to Kim caught significant attention. Even though it has been a year since Kim's wedding, Ji personally delivered his congratulations.

Surprised by the unexpected gift, Kim expressed her joy, saying, "Kyaa~ You're giving me a wedding gift. Thank you, Oppa. I'm so touched."

At the same time, she did not forget to cheer for Ji's own upcoming marriage.

Kim added, "My younger sibling is just waiting for the day our Oppa finally gets married. Please make sure we get to eat wedding noodles."

Since the expression "let us eat noodles" is a traditional way to wish someone well before their wedding, the message felt even more significant to fans aware of Ji's current relationship.

Ji recently publicly acknowledged his romance with show host Shin Boram, who is 16 years younger. The two, who met through broadcasting, developed a romantic relationship and recently flaunted their affection by releasing intimate couple photos.

Ji's current relationship is the very reason behind Kim's request to "eat wedding noodles."

Kim also opened a new chapter in her life by getting married last year. Having made her name to the public as a reenactment actress on MBC's "Surprise Mystery TV" since 2004, she tied the knot with Park Sangjun, a vocal trainer and former member of the male duo Teasers.

For the two, who have maintained a connection in the broadcasting industry for a long time, this wedding gift carries more meaning than just an envelope. In Ji, who belatedly acknowledged the important life milestone of marriage, and Kim, who returned that sentiment with cheerful support, one can see the deep bond between senior and junior colleagues.

In particular, it is now Ji's turn to receive congratulations.

Although the two have already exchanged a "wedding gift envelope," what Kim is truly waiting for is something else: a warm bowl of noodles at Ji's wedding.

Attention is gathering on whether Ji will marry Shin Boram as Kim wishes, and whether the day will come when he actually serves noodles to his colleagues.
