Hyun Young is madly in love with Kim Jong Min

Hyunyoung_200801.3

As expected, Hyun Young confirmed her relationship with fellow entertainer Kim Jong Min on Section TV Entertainment yesterday, after their secret date on New Years Eve was exposed. The two love birds met on TV variety show Six Girls and started to date about a year ago. When asked why she liked Kim Jong Min, Hyun Young stated that she was attracted by his “persistence and innocence.”

Hyun Young must be madly in love if she views Kim Jong Min’s stupidity as “innocence.” Anyhow, congrats to the new couple!

    If she’s happy, then let her be in love.He’s not perfect for everyone, but maybe she likes him, and that should be enough.

  2. 2 Xtineee. January 5, 2008 at 5:26 pm

    I agree with jen ^^

  3. 3 Nina January 5, 2008 at 5:32 pm

    I’m glad that she CAN see his real self not the one he’s showing on tv. Even if he isn’t perfect and haaaaandsoooome for everyone I’m sure he’s worth more than other cute guys >_<
    Wish them happiness, and I hope media won’t ruin their love.

    He’s just awesome and this shows that she isn’t quite the ditz she seems to be popularly portrayed as..

  7. 7 Steph January 5, 2008 at 6:08 pm

    Kim Jong Min isn’t stupid, it’s just a character for him on variety shows.

  8. 8 Milk* January 5, 2008 at 6:48 pm

    Aww. How cute! I actually like KJM and agree with whats said above. He isn’t stupid, it’s only an act. He seems like a really nice guy. ^^

  9. 9 hm January 5, 2008 at 7:07 pm

    i wish them nothing but happiness! maybe they’ll even marry when he returns from MS. congrats to them on finding love!

  10. 10 Cat January 5, 2008 at 7:36 pm

    I like KJM. He just acts stupid and bumbly for laughs. :] I think they’re a cute couple.

  11. 11 mawee January 5, 2008 at 8:28 pm

    hah! I knew it started in Heroine6~ Kim Jongmin always picks her as his partner, and his eyes says something.. haha.. congrats to them~ Kim Jongmin is not that stupid, he just acts funny stupid but I think he has hiw charm.

  12. 12 Mila January 5, 2008 at 8:33 pm

    Quite honestly I think KJM is a lot more grounded then people give him credit for. I think this relationship is a very good thing for HY.

    Saw the clip on YT and she seems VERY giddy, so even though I don’t really like her I’m happy for her.

  13. 13 Joe Chung January 5, 2008 at 9:30 pm

    Popseoul, Kim Jong Min acts “stupid” in shows just to create laughter. He’s not retarded in reality. He’s known to have an incredibly high IQ.

  14. 14 se7enfan January 5, 2008 at 9:51 pm

    I approve…

  15. 15 amareally January 5, 2008 at 10:13 pm

    I love Kim Jong Min .. !! so the dating rumor is true, I’m sure she sees something fabulous in him that we can’t see. I hope they’re happy together, he seems like a nice guy afterall.

  16. 16 Blahblahbon January 5, 2008 at 10:51 pm

    Do you guys remember the Heroine 6 days, when he ALWAYS wanted to sit with her. I’m not the least bit surprised they’re together. Good for them :3

  17. 17 sujuforever January 5, 2008 at 11:02 pm

    i love KJM!! Anyone who has decent looks, can make people laugh, and is a great sport..sounds pretty good to me. His personality is a real winner

  18. 18 Yu January 5, 2008 at 11:11 pm

    I think Kim Jong Min is a very warm and caring person. I really doubt he’s as dumb as he appears to be in the tv shows and such. Same with Hyun Young. It’s a really cute couple! All the best to them!

  19. 19 many January 6, 2008 at 12:00 am

    yupyup![:
    I like KJM too!
    Hes cute and is soo blurr.

  20. 20 em2007 January 6, 2008 at 12:43 am

    Isn’t it ironic, two people who act idiotic and ditzy on tv got together? I hope it is an act for their kid’s sake (if it gets that far.)

  21. 21 jhanine_63 January 6, 2008 at 1:19 am

    wow…congratulations for both of them..hope their relationship would last longer than LDG and HJH..tsktsk..

  22. 22 cosmicolor January 6, 2008 at 2:00 am

    I’m happy for her! :D

  23. 23 neongreenpeas January 6, 2008 at 2:01 am

    i think its cute.. hehe.. but i dont know if he’s really stupid… he used to be a really famous back dancer… he even danced for um jung hwa….a guy from t.i.p knows him… and said he took on a silly guy role, but you never know…anyways… they have any rights to be happy just as any couple…

  24. 24 jrizzle January 6, 2008 at 2:32 am

    i love both of them! congrats :D

  25. 25 muize January 6, 2008 at 2:44 am

    i think he’s funny and innocent too! I like when he admitted so easily when someone called him stupid and that made me laugh!

  26. 26 Kristina January 6, 2008 at 3:14 am

    isnt his “stupidity” an act?
    i think he’s funny and weird ^^

  27. 27 zipfuzz January 6, 2008 at 3:21 am

    KJM’s stupidity is an act. in reality he’s actually quite quiet, smart… sorta like an introvert

  28. 28 Stephaine January 6, 2008 at 3:26 am

    i like kim jong min he makes people laugh and they look so cute together

  29. 29 KanginsFutureGF January 6, 2008 at 3:32 am

    awww…
    congrats!!!!
    i knew this was going to happen!!!
    this is great!

  30. 30 Min A January 6, 2008 at 3:52 am

    i think they make a cute couple…they are both funny…i always viewed hyun young as the female version of kim jong min cuz they were very similar in many ways..

  31. 31 in January 6, 2008 at 4:49 am

    i don’t think kjm is stupid… :[ he’s just a little bit too modest.. i think there’s much more in kjm than a lot of entertainers in korea. as i watched more of his videos over the years, i think he’s pretty damn smart.

    congrats to both of them

  32. 32 annie January 6, 2008 at 4:54 am

    Kim Jong Min is definitely not stupid, He’s a smart guy. maybe after too much booz,drugs and dancing, the brain is a bit shakey. but still a smart dude.

  33. 33 Elaine January 6, 2008 at 5:42 am

    One of the few times I disagree with Popseoul. KJM’s stupidity is an act to make everyone laugh. It’s obvious he chooses not to “shine” like the other celebrities; ever seen his dance clip from Heroine 6?

  34. 34 bigbanghwaiting January 6, 2008 at 6:17 am

    I LOVE KIM JONG MIN.
    He’s not stupid at all. very funny guy.
    i’m actually quite sad that he’s taken, but i’m sure these two are happy together. very cute couple.

  35. 35 Jane. January 6, 2008 at 6:20 am

    I absolutely adoreee Kim Jong Min. He’s so goofy but has a lot of charisma in a way, (if you’ve seen that one episode of him on Heroine 6 when he dances). And they have a lot of on-screen chemistry, so why not off? I’m happy for the both of them, maybe their relationship will lead on to bigger and better things?

  36. 36 uhuh January 6, 2008 at 7:32 am

    OMG I love it!!!! i really like them together! OMG this is so cute!!!! I like KJM too and he’s not stupid…

  37. 37 tangy January 6, 2008 at 8:18 am

    aweeee i like them
    they were so cute together in love letter!

  38. 38 studentgirl January 6, 2008 at 9:48 am

    Kim Jong Min is hilarious~ and you can tell he has a genuine character~ I don’t think he’s really “Stupid” though~~ that characteristic s probably attributed from the variety shows he guests on,, which are just games

  39. 39 Chantelle January 6, 2008 at 10:34 am

    I wuv Kim Jong Min.
    Congratz to em!
    I would love to have a guy like him in my life.
    Laughter is such an important thing.

  40. 40 weeeweee14 January 6, 2008 at 10:37 am

    i just watched the vid~ ONG this is so CUTE~ I .<

  41. 41 lavenderblue January 6, 2008 at 10:57 am

    my sis lived in korea for a while and said kim jong min is very smart, actually. but it really doesn’t matter. if they like each other, they like each other. good for them. hope they last. if you think about it, that’s pretty funny…i don’t know if hyun is smart in real life but in their tv persona, they are THE tung tung couple! haha.

  42. 42 turtleds January 6, 2008 at 11:45 am

    ha ha ha, soo cute!!

  43. 43 ChocolateCake January 6, 2008 at 1:11 pm

    Acting stupid is part of his job:) He’s cute, no? I remember when I first saw X-Man, he was the one that attracted me the most. He was the cutest guy, until I found dongbangshinki. HAHA anyway, I’m sure that there’s something in Jong Min that we don’t know… that attracted Hyun Young. Aww thats love~

  44. 44 Tiffany80 January 6, 2008 at 2:34 pm

    aww so cute! i wonder how KJM managed to stay quiet about this. He’s the best. hope they have a good relationship for a long time

  45. 45 suju.dbsk January 6, 2008 at 5:15 pm

    wth .. you mistook kim jong min’s innocence for stupidity? just leave them alone. they’re in love.

    aww its so nice to hear they have found their other half ^^ i hope you guys are left alone and stay strong even there are people who critise you.

  46. 46 hiatus January 6, 2008 at 6:21 pm

    dumb and dumber…

  47. 47 ... January 6, 2008 at 9:34 pm

    congrats to the new couple! jongmin is really funny.
    he’s just acting as if he’s dumb :D

  48. 48 ga_yeon January 7, 2008 at 2:05 am

    It is great that Hyun Young and Kim Jong Min are dating.
    They would make an odd couple though.
    Kim Jong Min is actually a singer in the group called Koyote if you didn’t know that.

  49. 49 for real January 7, 2008 at 3:02 am

    She’s an airhead and he’s just dumb. They got sth in common right there. Well that has nothing to do with falling in love, so good for them!

  50. 50 Rachael January 7, 2008 at 5:55 am

    actually, i heard he’s actually really smart, but just acts stupid on TV shows for laughs…

  51. 51 jihae January 7, 2008 at 10:33 am

    not interested…

  52. 52 someone January 7, 2008 at 3:09 pm

    kim jong min rocks, he’s hilarious on tv shows. I don’t know if he’s smart or not but I think he does exaggerate stuff for the cameras. If he didn’t act that way, I doubt he would get much air time since he’s not one of the “pretty boys.”

  53. 53 Lo January 8, 2008 at 9:03 am

    woot! what an awesome couple!

  54. 54 who? January 10, 2008 at 2:27 am

    one more funny dude settling down. is shin jung-hwan and yoo jae-suk married, anyway?

    awww and KJM is away too. she must be really missing KJM and decided to do the interview just to talk about him.

  55. 55 Vamp Charisma February 19, 2008 at 6:39 am

    Well, reportedly, Hyun Young’s been desperate to date someone for a while. You can reference the Hi-Five episode where Park Kyung Lim announced she was going to be married. I for one am not too surprised to see the two of them together, and if they’re happy, that’s all that matters. Who knows, they might even tie the knot. Haha.

  56. 56 LULIA March 5, 2008 at 10:45 am

    I LOVE KIM JONG MIN AND HYUN YOUNG, THERE FREKEN HILARIOUS. THEY MAKE A PERFECT COUPLE IF U ASK ME. THERE BOTH A LITTLE DENSE BUT FREKEN HILARIOUS !D
