Broadcaster Bae Sung-jae, formerly an announcer, revealed an anecdote about arranging the marriage of Park Ji-sung and Kim Min-ji.

On the 31st, a video titled "Ask Bae Sung-jae, the man obsessed with football from Cha Bum-kun to Park Ji-sung," was released on Bae Ji-hyun's YouTube channel.

That day, Bae Sung-jae explained how he developed a friendship with Park Ji-sung: "Actually, we weren't close at first. My father said, 'Since you're broadcasting Premier League matches, let me treat you to a meal,' and invited me to Suwon. He bought meat in Suwon, and that was the first time we met and exchanged greetings."

He continued, "Then my father said, 'I need to get this guy married.' So I told him, 'I know a suitable woman; would you be interested?'” he recalled.

Hearing this, Bae Ji-hyun mentioned commentator Jung Min-cheol, who had introduced her to Ryu Hyun-jin, saying, "Just like how commentator Jung Min-cheol did for us." In response, Bae Sung-jae joked, "What do you think of Commissioner Jung Min-cheol? Isn't he a benefactor?" He added, "Park Ji-sung probably sees me as a benefactor too."

Bae Sung-jae also revealed that he received a suit as a token of gratitude for arranging the marriage. He said, "They told me to get it tailored somewhere, and I waited to lose some weight before wearing it. But over about 10 years, instead of losing weight, I actually gained weight. In the end, I finally got the suit tailored nearly 10 years later," which drew laughter from the audience.
