Mr. Kim and Sunja from the 28th season are dating. On the 5th, a live broadcast of SBS Plus and ENA's program "I am SOLO, Love Continues After" was held on the YouTube channel 'Chonjang Entertainment TV.' During this broadcast, the cast members took time to reveal whether they had become couples after the final selection results were announced. Mr. Kim confirmed his relationship with Sunja from the 28th season, saying, "I think people already know one way or another. Yes, that's correct."

Mr. Kim explained how the two met. He said, "When Youngsoo from the 28th season was hosting a pop-up event, I went there, and Sunja from the 28th season also came because she lives nearby. We ran into each other there." He revealed the process of their relationship developing by saying, "We talked a lot and I felt a lot of attraction."

He also mentioned, "Many people have questions. During my self-introduction on 'I am SOLO,' I said it would be difficult if someone had children and that long-distance relationships wouldn't work." Sunja from the 28th season is a single parent raising one child. Mr. Kim said, "People would think about the child, and I was well aware from my own experience that long-distance relationships are not easy. I had never dated anyone with children before." He added, "It was an unknown territory. It was the worry and fear that come from walking a path I hadn't been on."

Mr. Kim honestly expressed his feelings toward Sunja. He said, "Honestly, it's not easy. But I am taking one step at a time on this difficult path, looking only at that person," conveying his sincere feelings about their relationship. He compared Sunja's image on the show to her real self, saying, "I also watched when she appeared on the show, and she really came across as mean."

He continued, "But in reality, she doesn't look like that. She's pretty. Her personality isn't like that either. Otherwise, I would have disliked her too," emphasizing Sunja's charm. Mr. Kim said, "She's smart, cute, very affectionate, and cheerful. Youngsoo from the 28th season also highly praised those qualities."

Regarding their relationship, Mr. Kim gave a positive evaluation, saying, "We have similar vibes and understand each other well. I think we met well like that." He humorously lightened the mood by saying, "I'm still suffering from a bad image, so don't curse me; since my image is bad, curse me instead," creating a warm atmosphere on site.

Meanwhile, during the 'I am SOLO' broadcast, Sunja from the 28th season caused a stir with her blunt remarks, such as asking Sangcheol, "How do you feel being constantly rejected and pushed aside by Youngsoo's girlfriends without any reason?" Due to these remarks, Sunja received critical and harsh comments but did not apologize during the 28th season live broadcast either.

Later realizing the reaction, Sunja said, "I want to apologize to the many viewers who seemed very uncomfortable with my dark expressions throughout the live broadcast." She explained, "I think my reason, if any, was that I had to go live without having time to recover from the shock of the broadcast filmed six months ago," and apologized to the viewers.

Sunja also expressed gratitude to the 28th season cast members and concluded the broadcast. News of the couple's relationship is generating significant buzz among fans.
