Fencing national team member Oh Sang-wook revealed that he is family with Chef Kwon Seong-jun.

The JTBC variety show "Refrigerator Please," which aired on the afternoon of the 25th, was themed around the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games and featured appearances by fencing legend Oh Sang-wook, who won gold medals in both the men's sabre individual and team events; judo women's -57kg class gold medalist Heo Mi-mi; and Bwesha Daniel Gasama, a key figure behind Korea's new national record in the men's 400m relay.

On this day, MC Kim Sung-joo asked Oh Sang-wook, "I heard there is a family member here. Who is it?"

Oh Sang-wook responded, "I also only found out a week ago that Chef Kwon Seong-jun is my relative," sparking surprise.

He then explained, "Kwon Seong-jun visited the athletes' village recently and told another athlete, 'I am a relative of athlete Oh Sang-wook,' before leaving. So I asked my father, and he said (Kwon Seong-jun) is the son of the sister of the wife of the brother of my paternal grandfather."

Kwon Seong-jun added, "To put it simply, (Oh Sang-wook) is the son of my maternal uncle's cousin. If you count it out, we are about eighth-degree relatives."

He continued, "I have known for five years that Oh Sang-wook is my relative. I am a little disappointed."

In response, Oh Sang-wook firmly stated, "If he hadn't appeared here, I would have kept not knowing," eliciting laughter.

Yoon Nam-no, who learned of this fact from the side, joked, "The two of you have different arm lengths," adding to the humor.
