Sul Woon-do sparks dating rumors for Heo Kyung-hwan

Comedian Heo Kyung-hwan faced unexpected dating rumors during a recording of the SBS variety show 'My Little Old Boy' after trot singer Sul Woon-do suggested the 45-year-old has a woman despite not being married. The remark caused Heo to blush and led his mother to express suspicion regarding a potential hidden romance.

45-year-old single comedian Heo Kyung-hwan has been swept into unexpected dating rumors following a pointed remark from trot singer Sul Woon-do, who suggested, "You haven't had the wedding, but you have a woman." The unexpected revelation left Heo Kyung-hwan blushing, prompting suspicions in the studio that he might actually be in a relationship. Even his mother expressed doubt regarding her son's hidden romance.

In the upcoming broadcast of the SBS variety show 'My Little Old Boy' on the 15th, a "hundred-year feast" will take place between trot legends Nam Jin and Sul Woon-do. During the recording, Sul Woon-do, who has been observing Heo Kyung-hwan closely for a long time, dropped a bombshell regarding the comedian's love life, turning the set upside down.

Directing his comments toward Heo Kyung-hwan, Sul Woon-do stated, "You haven't had the wedding, but you have a woman." The remark, delivered with a strange sense of certainty that made it difficult to dismiss as a simple joke, surprised all the cast members. Heo Kyung-hwan appeared visibly flustered by the unexpected attack, and as he was captured turning bright red to his ears, suspicions intensified.

Reactions in the studio included comments such as, "He must really have someone," and, "You could have just laughed it off, but your face turned so red." While Heo Kyung-hwan is usually skilled at handling any situation with his characteristic wit, he was unable to hide his embarrassment in the face of this specific comment. His reaction appeared to lend weight to Sul Woon-do's revelation.

The surprise extended even to his mother. It is reported that after watching her son's reaction, Heo Kyung-hwan's mother expressed her own suspicion, saying, "My son really must have someone." The impact of Sul Woon-do's single comment was significant enough to make even his mother, who has long waited for her son to marry, harbor doubts. However, the actual relationship status of Heo Kyung-hwan has not been confirmed by the details released in the broadcast.

Heo Kyung-hwan has previously shared his thoughts and plans regarding marriage on several occasions. In a video for the YouTube channel 'ggzz' titled 'Heo Kyung-hwan's Trend Show' released on the 4th, he confessed that his marriage plans had deviated significantly from his expectations. He originally considered age 38 to be the ideal time for marriage, explaining that he thought it was "the most beautiful and wonderful age" at the time.

When those plans did not align with reality, he adjusted his marriage goal to age 42. He explained, "Since times have changed, I raised it by about four years," but admitted that even that did not materialize as planned. He candidly acknowledged that his marriage has been delayed more than expected, stating, "The plan went totally wrong," and "It deviated greatly from there."

Nevertheless, his desire to marry has not vanished. When asked if he wants to get married, Heo Kyung-hwan replied, "If someone appears right now, I'll stop filming and run to them." For him, who leads a busy life balancing broadcasting and business, marriage remains an ongoing life task.

With Sul Woon-do's direct revelation, Heo Kyung-hwan's reddened face, and his mother's suspicion, this episode of 'My Little Old Boy' is expected to further fuel curiosity regarding his romantic life. Attention is focused on whether Heo Kyung-hwan, who has long publicly expressed his wish to marry, actually has a partner, or if this is merely a happening created by Sul Woon-do's sharp speculation.
