Actor Kim Min found himself in an amusing situation where even a foreigner doubted his nationality.

In the episode of MBC's variety show 'I Live Alone' broadcast on the 30th, Kim Min was shown participating in the Dongducheon City Sports Day.

On that day, Kim Min competed as a relay runner representing Jungang-dong at the sports day, which involved participation from eight dong (neighborhoods) in Dongducheon City. Kim Min, who said it was his third time participating in the event this year, expressed his enthusiasm by stating, "Jungang-dong is often looked down upon for having an older demographic, but we need to do it properly."

Kim Min stepped up as the representative for the men's 40s age group relay and took on the role of the third runner. While waiting for his race, he ran into a female foreign participant who was competing as a representative from another dong.

As Kim Min conversed in English with the woman, who said she was from Nigeria, he received an unexpected question from her.

After introducing herself as the representative of Bosan-dong, the woman told Kim Min, "I know you are not Korean."

In response, Kim Min replied, "I am Korean," but the woman asked again, "Is your father Korean? Is your mother Korean?"

Kim Min answered, "Yes, that's right," explaining that he was indeed Korean. However, the conversation between the two ended abruptly as the women's relay race began, eliciting laughter.

Subsequently, Kim Min, who competed in the men's relay, contributed to his Jungang-dong team achieving a fifth-place finish. He expressed satisfaction despite some regret, saying, "We always come in last place, so what if we get around fifth?"

Meanwhile, Kim Min previously drew attention on 'I Live Alone' by revealing his daily life living in an old house in Dongducheon.
