Former announcer turned broadcaster Kim Dae-ho drew attention after candidly sharing his views on relationships. For him, what matters more than age or circumstances is a partnership where two people can walk side by side in the same direction for a long time.

In a preview for episode 193 of JTBC’s variety show Talk Pawon 25, Kim Dae-ho appeared as a guest and set a distinct tone. He explained, “I don’t dream of a love that burns fiercely while facing each other, but a love that moves forward side by side, like parallel lines.” His words clearly reflected his outlook on relationships.

He then named broadcaster Kim Sook, who is nine years his senior, as his ideal type. This was not just a playful confession, but a glimpse into the standards he values in a relationship. Rather than emotional intensity, he emphasized compatibility in life’s rhythm.

The studio atmosphere naturally warmed up. When Lee Chan-won asked a direct question, Kim Sook chose Kim Dae-ho, smiling shyly, while Kim Dae-ho responded with relaxed confidence, creating an easy and comfortable exchange.

Watching Kim Dae-ho’s Paris travel footage, Kim Sook remarked that she should go with him someday, to which he replied, “Do you have time?” turning the age gap into lighthearted banter. The moment reflected the kind of “side-by-side” love Kim Dae-ho had described.

Born in 1984, Kim Dae-ho has previously spoken openly about his financial stability through his YouTube channel. Grounded in a secure reality, he envisions relationships that are not driven by emotion alone. The nine-year age difference appeared less like an obstacle and more like a condition for matching each other’s pace.
