On Tuesday, Shin Ji and Moon Won, the couple from MBN’s “Someone’s Precious Family Member,” will share intimate stories on the show.
The fifth episode features the newlyweds’ first post-wedding trip to Gyeongju, a sweet yet challenging adventure that replaces their postponed Maldives honeymoon.
In this episode, Moon Won surprises Shin Ji with a thoughtfully planned Gyeongju getaway after their original honeymoon falls through. At an amusement park, Shin Ji, a thrill-ride enthusiast, bubbles with excitement, declaring, “Riding the ‘ultimate roller coaster’ here is on my bucket list!” Meanwhile, Moon Won, battling acrophobia, turns ghostly pale, admitting that he once got sick on a roller coaster. If he rides this, he’ll be out of commission all day. Their contrasting reactions set the stage for an interesting dynamic.
Despite his fears, Moon Won bravely decides to face the challenge, proclaiming that a man must rise to the occasion. Viewers are left wondering if he’ll conquer his intense fear to help fulfill his wife’s dream.
The couple’s next stop is a enchanting lantern festival. They capture picture-perfect moments under the soft glow, creating memories straight out of a movie. In a candid moment, Moon Won reveals that he usually feels uneasy in crowds, but seeing so many people supporting them has given him a boost of confidence.
Back at their lodgings, the romantic atmosphere persists. Moon Won, gazing at Shin Ji resting her head on his lap, gushes that her profile is breathtaking. That she looks different, yet beautiful, every time he sees her. However, he humorously adds that some days she’s bubbly and affectionate, other days she’s cranky. It’s scary because it’s unpredictable, but there are days when she’s absolutely adorable. His candid remarks have everyone in stitches.
The pair delve into deeper conversations. When Shin Ji expresses concern about burdening Moon Won, he responds with a heartfelt reassurance that touches everyone in the studio.
In a studio confession, Shin Ji shares that she’s always been the giver, but her husband has taught her it’s okay to depend on someone else too.
For context, Shin Ji tied the knot with Moon Won, seven years her junior, last May. Their romance blossomed after meeting on MBC’s Standard FM “Singeulbungeulshow” in 2024. However, they faced public scrutiny last July when a video surfaced of Moon Won revealing his past marriage and fatherhood to Koyote members Kim Jong Min and Baek Ga. Amid swirling rumors about Moon Won’s personal life, Shin Ji’s agency stepped in to debunk unfounded claims.
