48-Year-Old Jun Hyun-moo Responds to May Wedding Rumors: "I'll Start Looking for a Bride Tomorrow"

Broadcaster Jun Hyun-moo, a former announcer, has shared his reaction to fake news claiming he will "get married next May."

On the 23rd, a video titled "Uhm Yeong Ja, I've returned from raiding the World Cup commentary team" was uploaded to the YouTube channel 'Yeouido Yuktoe Club.' In the video, Uhm Ji-in, transformed into her alter ego 'Uhm Yeong Ja,' met with Jun Hyun-moo, Lee Young-pyo, and Nam Hyun-jong to discuss various topics regarding the North/Central America World Cup.

During the conversation, Uhm Ji-in asked Jun Hyun-moo, "Since you're so busy traveling back and forth to Mexico, is it okay with your girlfriend?"

Jun Hyun-moo appeared flustered, responding, "This is the first time I've seen someone ask about whether I have a girlfriend in such a blunt way." He then answered as if resigned, "My girlfriend? She says it's fine."

Uhm Ji-in then brought up the 'fake news,' saying, "I heard you've already set a date for next May." Jun Hyun-moo jokingly played along, saying, "That's right. Come then." He escalated the joke by adding, "I'll hold it at the KBS Hall, so come receive the bouquet, and let Hyun-jong be the MC." When Uhm Ji-in asked, "And the bride?" Jun Hyun-moo replied, "I plan to start looking for one tomorrow."

Back in April, Jun Hyun-moo faced distress when words he jokingly tossed out on KBS2's 'Boss in the Mirror' were misconstrued as actual marriage rumors. When Jun Hyun-moo expressed envy after hearing about Nam Hyun-jong's marriage news, Park Myung-soo suggested, "Hyun-moo, you should set a wedding date in advance too." In response, Jun Hyun-moo jokingly picked a date: "The third Friday of next May." Park Myung-soo immediately shouted, "Jun Hyun-moo is getting married on the third Friday of next May!"

Born in 1977, Jun Hyun-moo joined KBS in 2006 as a 32nd batch open recruitment announcer but left KBS in 2012.
