Kwak Seon Hui shares running date with wife

Kwak Seon Hui, who demonstrated overwhelming physical strength and military charisma on 'The Iron Squad,' has revealed a completely different side of herself while running with her wife. Unlike her image of enduring high-intensity training, fans are turning their attention to her daily life, sweating side-by-side with her loved one.

Recently, Kwak shared photos on her SNS showing her enjoying trail running with her wife. Dressed for long-distance exercise in a running vest, shorts, and sunglasses, she still exudes the solid physical strength of a former soldier while running mountain paths. In fact, her consistent exercise habits caught attention when it was revealed through previously shared running records that she and her wife ran 5.51 km in 35 minutes and 15 seconds.

However, the scenes captured by the camera were quite different from 'The Iron Squad.' Kwak and her wife showed relaxed expressions, putting their arms around each other's shoulders or walking side-by-side along the mountain trails, and Kwak expressed her affection by captioning the photo, "Papa is the best." The image of a soldier ramping up tension for missions and competition on broadcast has transformed into that of an affectionate spouse in her daily life.

Kwak drew attention by publicly announcing her relationship with her same-sex partner starting last year, and she also revealed that she took her marriage vows in New York, United States, in November 2025. Since then, she has been sharing their daily lives with fans through SNS, posting clips of them exercising together, enjoying trips, and seeing each other off at the airport.

In particular, exercise has become more than just a hobby on Kwak's recent SNS, establishing itself as a lifestyle. From participating in running competitions to enjoying trail running, she recently even showed herself lifting a 25 kg barbell at the gym, once again flaunting the physical strength expected of a veteran of 'The Iron Squad.'

Kwak became known to the public on Channel A's 'The Iron Squad' as a former lieutenant from the 53rd Infantry Division, demonstrating strong physical stamina and a competitive spirit. As her cool-headed image while performing duties in military uniform was so strong, her image of laughing and playing while exercising with her wife outside of the show is being embraced as another facet of her personality.

The gap between the strong image created by the title 'The Iron Squad' and her friendly appearance in real life is notable. Ultimately, the reason these photos are garnering attention is that rather than a special event, the ordinary time spent running, walking, and taking photos together shows Kwak in a more multi-dimensional way. Having shed her battlefield charisma, Kwak is drawing public interest in another way by showing 'steel-like affection' rather than just 'steel-like physical strength.'
