Comedian Kim Young-hee confessed on 'Malja Show' that she had unrequitedly loved her colleague Im Woo-il for four years.

The episode of KBS 2TV's variety program 'Malja Show,' which aired on the 8th, was specially prepared as a 'Malja Dating' feature for young men and women.

During the broadcast, a concern was raised: "I keep getting rejected, and my self-esteem keeps dropping. Where is my match?" 'Malja Halmae' Kim Young-hee emphasized that courage is necessary in love, drawing from her own experiences.

Kim Young-hee said, "Some people lose self-esteem after being rejected and failing in love, while others maintain their self-esteem. Ultimately, the latter succeed in their next relationship."

She continued, "I also had many failures. I became a female comedian and didn't date for 11 years. Among those, I had unrequited feelings for comedian Im Woo-il for four years and was rejected 17 times," she joked.

Kim Young-hee also shared an anecdote about visiting a club with friends during the early days of her debut, when she was gaining popularity through the 'Two-Factor Debate' segment on KBS 2TV's comedy program 'Gag Concert.'

She said, "I went to the club with high hopes, but an employee at the entrance stopped me from entering. I felt so humiliated that I wanted to leave, but a friend asked, 'Don't you know her?' The employee then said, 'We'll let you in just for today,' and I was able to enter," which drew laughter from the audience.

Even inside the club, Kim Young-hee's situation did not change. She said, "Unlike my friends, I just stayed seated. I had been sitting for so long that I wanted to go to the restroom, but a waiter stopped me and asked, 'Auntie, could you please boil me a bowl of ramen?'" This revelation brought great amusement.

Kim Young-hee added, "I haven't been to a club since then. I'm someone who can only appeal to others through conversation. Although there were many twists and turns, I never lost confidence. Because I believed in my own charm, I naturally met my current husband," she advised.

During the 'Malja Dating' segment that day, single men and women continued to make bold confessions. Including guest Kim Ji-yu, a total of seven pairs were matched. At the end of the broadcast, a courageous 27-year-old male audience member proposed to his girlfriend.
