Actress Yoon Eun-hye opened up about what she truly cares for in a marriage partner, emphasizing common religious beliefs, amid revived dating rumors with singer Kim Jong-kook.
On the Aug. 11 episode of her YouTube podcast Yoon Eun-hye's Sleepless Night, the 38-year-old actress answered a fan's query on what she looks for in a husband.
She replied that sincerity and loyalty are her number one requirements, with physical beauty being a bonus but not a must.
"Because I have my own religion, it's necessary that my partner shares the same beliefs. We need to look in the same direction," Yoon explained, emphasizing the importance of shared values for a lasting relationship.
The remarks follow revived rumors over her on-again, off-again relationship with Kim, which was again ignited when a 2008 picture of the couple going to a tanning salon began making rounds online.
The two first made headlines in 2005 after appearing together on SBS's variety program X-Man, and their chemistry on the show fueled a long-rumored romance between them.
In 2022, interest picked up when Yoon described giving her boyfriend a notebook of handwritten notes — a detail that was consistent with Kim's earlier comment about receiving a similar gift from a friend.
No romantic involvement has been confirmed by either Yoon or Kim, but their relationship remains of interest to fans almost two decades since their initial joint appearance.
