Former volleyball star Kim Yohan and actress Oh Yeon-hee fueled marriage speculation on the October 16 episode of Channel A’s ‘Groom Class 2,’ where the couple visited a tailor shop and tried on a tuxedo and wedding dress together.
According to Newsis, the 41-year-old broadcaster and his 30-year-old girlfriend — who are 11 years apart — stopped by a custom suit shop run by one of Kim’s longtime friends. When Oh asked how the two men knew each other, the friend joked they had met ‘at a pool party,’ drawing laughter. Oh then measured Kim’s waist herself for his fitting, and when Kim emerged in his tailored suit, she told him the suit really suited him, prompting him to answer with a back hug.
The shop owner then surprised the pair by suggesting Oh try on a wedding dress kept in the store. Standing next to Kim in formal wear, the couple looked every bit the bride and groom. Kim said the moment felt like a wedding, adding that while he doesn’t know what road lies ahead, he wants to walk it with her for a long time. As reported by MHN, when Kim later met Oh’s close friends and was asked about wedding preparations, he simply answered, ‘You just need to show up.’
The episode also brought a playful confrontation. One of Oh’s friends turned out to be director Park So-rang, who had directed Oh’s kiss scene in a past project. Kim greeted her with ‘I’ve really wanted to meet you,’ then asked why she had included the kiss scene at all. After Park explained her directing choices and won him over, she fired a direct question back: ‘Are you thinking about marriage?’ Studio panelists reacted with delight — singer Lee Seung-chul called it ‘a strategy to naturally seep toward marriage,’ while Tak Jae-hoon said he might cry if the two really tie the knot.
Kim, a former professional volleyball player turned entertainer, and Oh, an actress, went public as a couple on the October 2 broadcast of ‘Groom Class 2’ when Oh accepted his confession. In the two weeks since, the pair have shared matching couple T-shirts and exchanged handmade rings on the show, keeping viewers invested in their romance.
With the couple openly entertaining the idea of marriage on air, fans are now watching closely to see whether the tuxedo-and-dress fitting was just a playful preview — or a hint of wedding bells to come.
