Actor Kang Shin-il shares his more than 30-year connection with Seol Kyung-goo, revealing a past anecdote in which Seol volunteered to be his manager.
According to SBS on the 20th, actor Kang Shin-il, who serves as a mentor to actors Song Kang-ho, Kim Yoon-seok, and Seol Kyung-goo and is a veteran with 47 years of experience, appears in an episode airing that afternoon on the SBS variety program “Same Bed Different Dreams Season 2 – You Are My Destiny” (hereinafter referred to as “Same Bed Different Dreams 2”).
Kang Shin-il, who has played the role of a “premium scene-stealer” in numerous works, recently participated in a studio recording and confessed that “‘Same Bed Different Dreams 2’ is my first variety program.”
With 37 years of marriage, Kang Shin-il has become the couple with the longest marriage in the history of “Same Bed Different Dreams 2.” He revealed the daily life of this “extreme” polar-opposite couple, turning the studio upside down. Unlike Kang Shin-il, an “extreme introvert” who is excessively taciturn, his wife, an “extreme extrovert,” displayed the traits of a “too much talker,” continuing a storm of chatter without rest for 24 hours.

In particular, it is reported that the MCs expressed their suffering over Kang Shin-il’s “silent practice”-like behavior, which was so quiet it could be considered a broadcast accident, saying things like, “You are too static,” “It is unsettling because you are so quiet, please answer us,” and “Why are you so silent?”
Eventually, his wife burst out with the grievances she had endured for 37 years, stating, “I want to open up my husband’s brain.” The reality of Kang Shin-il couple’s “extreme” polar-opposite life, which shocked everyone, will be revealed through the broadcast.
Additionally, Kang Shin-il’s unique connections were revealed, drawing attention as a “living witness to Korean theater.” Kang Shin-il has built a friendship with Seol Kyung-goo for more than 30 years through his connection to the Hakjeon Troupe, which was once a gateway to stardom.
Kang Shin-il surprised everyone by revealing that during his appearance in the film “Public Enemy,” “Seol Kyung-goo was my manager” and “He personally came to pick me up at my house every day of filming.” Curiosity is piqued as to what the story behind Seol Kyung-goo volunteering to be Kang Shin-il’s manager might be. The episode airs at 10:40 p.m. on the 20th.
