Kang Soo-jeong, 46-year-old Japanese stationery shop, “We were the same age!”





On the 8th, a video titled ‘Delicious Tokyo Gourmet Trip / Shabu Shabu vs. Sukiyaki’ was uploaded to Kang Soo-jeong’s YouTube channel.
Kang Soo-jeong visited restaurants in Tokyo, Japan that she had fond memories of with her husband. Kang Soo-jeong was satisfied after eating shabu-shabu. Regarding his son, who was showing off his playful side throughout the filming of a video of him eating, he said, "My son is so greedy about appearing on the show that I don't know how much I'll be in," which made everyone laugh.
After leaving the restaurant, Kang Soo-jeong stopped by the stationery store she visited when she was living in Japan. He explained about this stationery store, “It’s 46 years old.” Kang Soo-jeong bought school supplies such as a sketchbook, colored pencils, stampers, and scissors for her son. Kang Soo-jeong was confused, saying, "I'm having a sale to say thank you for 46 years. 46 years. Is that my age? For heaven's sake, we were the same age." Then, she changed her words and said, "No, I have to say only. She's 45 years old. She was my sister," causing laughter. Kang Soo-jeong suddenly realized that her son and husband were nowhere to be seen, and they went out to look for them again.
Kang Soo-jeong, born in 1977, joined KBS as an announcer for the 28th open recruitment in 2002 and left the company in 2006. Kang Soo-jeong married a financial industry worker in 2008 and has a son. Currently living in Hong Kong, he divides his time between Hong Kong and Korea.
