Sandara Park Had A Crush On A Male Idol For 20+ Years — Then She Finally Got To Go On A Date With Him
On an episode of MBN variety show Hoon Man Jung Eum, Sandara Park appeared as a guest on the ‘Dating Expert’ special that the show was having. She made a cute revelation about one of the other guests on the show.
The show’s MC revealed that Dara had a crush on SECHSKIES member Eun Ji Won for 22 years at the time and as if it was meant to be, Eun Ji Won was also guesting on the show. The MC thought that was why Dara accepted the offer to come on the show without a second thought. Jea continued to tease Dara, mimicking her and quoting her:
Isn’t Ji Won oppa so perfect? When he changes his hairstyle, he looks younger than most idols these days.
— Jea
Dara started to get very embarrassed and explained why she liked Ji Won after being prompted to do so.
He’s handsome and has tsundere charms. In real life, he’s so sweet about everything.
— Dara
Ji Won was thankful for the praise but was also skeptical that Dara has had a crush on him for a whole 22 years, but judging from his facial expression, he was very thrilled to hear that from a beauty like Dara!
Two years after their appearance on Hoon Man Jung Eum, they met again for an appearance on Video Star, where they were actually able to go on a date together! They went out for dinner and drinks, much to the delight of the studio hosts.
