Actor Park Jung-soo revealed her love story with PD Jeong Eul-young, with whom she is in a common-law relationship.

On the 20th, during the broadcast of MBN and Channel S's 'Jun Hyun-moo Plan 2', sitcom pioneer Park Jung-soo appeared as a guest.

On that day, Jun Hyun-moo and Kwak Tube visited Dangjin, Chungnam. After having their first meal at a chicken stew restaurant, the two moved to meet their eating companion. Jun Hyun-moo gave a hint, saying, "With today's eating companion, who is a pioneer in the sitcom world, this person... " and Kwak Tube mentioned Shim Hye-jin, Oh Hyun-kyung, Na Mun-hee, and Sun Woo Yong-yeo, but got it wrong. Jun Hyun-moo said, "Except for one of the five representatives of sitcom pioneers, you named them all. I'm so disappointed," and Kwak Tube recalled 'They can't stop them easily' and predicted, "It's Ms. Park Jung-soo."

Today’s eating companion was Park Jung-soo, a legendary actress from the 70s who is actively working in various fields. She said, "Doesn't Jun Hyun-moo scratch people a bit? He can be a bit troublesome," and added, "(I) hit. So far, no guest has ever hit that person," she said. After arriving at the meeting place, Kwak Tube was convinced the eating companion would be Sun Woo Yong-yeo. He called out, "Teacher Yong-yeo," while blindfolded, but was greatly surprised when Park Jung-soo revealed herself.

Park Jung-soo said, "Isn't the pioneer of sitcoms only knowing Yong-yeo? Am I not a pioneer? Then what am I?" and joked, "I’m a bit upset. Today is going to be not good. I have a long memory." Jun Hyun-moo praised her, saying, "Did we do Vitamin together back in the day? Your face looks exactly the same as 10 years ago. You're like a preservative." Additionally, Kwak Tube remarked, "You look the same as when I watched the sitcom. You looked the same when raising Yeong-sam." Then, Park Jung-soo exclaimed, "What are you doing, Kwak Jun-bin! That's too much," and playfully hit him on the back.

The three of them visited a kongguksu restaurant. Park Jung-soo brushed her hair, which got messy due to the wind, and Kwak Tube complimented, "You have a lot of hair. Is all of it real? It looks so lush." To this, Park Jung-soo replied, "Since I’m over 70, I have to take care of myself starting from my late 60s. I have to dye and perm my hair. So I also provide some nutrition." She continued, "Although my face looks youthful, my body is healthier compared to others. I have been consistently receiving personal training twice a week for 7 to 8 years. One session is Pilates, and the other is PT. When I race 100 meters, my outside person says, 'Wow, you run well.' So I run fast and well," showing off her youthful appearance that impressed PD Jeong Eul-young.

Especially after finishing their meal, Jun Hyun-moo said while moving to another location, "I was actually surprised. After seeing that photo. Please let me know what age this was taken. Jun-bin, get ready to be shocked," as he showed a photo of Park Jung-soo from her prime. Kwak Tube gasped, "Wow... is this real?" and Park Jung-soo explained, "This is when I was a rookie playing a significant role in 'Hanbaeknyeon.' I was 20 or 21 years old then."

Kwak Tube said, "You look like the most popular beauty these days, not just a classic beauty. It looks like a recent actress’s photo. You seem similar to Go Youn-jung." He added, "I bet men have probably asked for your contact info on the street a lot." Jun Hyun-moo replied, "Back then, I couldn't ask for contact info. There were no cell phones. I just chased after them," while Park Jung-soo playfully responded, "They chased after me. If I said, 'Excuse me,' they wouldn't even respond. What would happen if I did?"

Later, Jun Hyun-moo asked, "Did you meet while working with Director Jeong?" Park Jung-soo replied, "Yes, we worked together on 'Who Could My Love Be' in 2002. He teased me so much, and I have this reaction. If someone teases me, I can’t stand it. If someone pokes at me, I react. If they say something to me like that, I used to get angry," sharing their playful chemistry. Jun Hyun-moo questioned, "Was it a strategy?" to which Park Jung-soo quipped, "It must have been a strategy; perhaps he was always aggressive." Jun Hyun-moo nodded, saying, "And thus love blossomed," while Park Jung-soo added, "I guess so. I can’t really say that was love," waving her hands dismissively.

Next, the three of them headed to a soy crab restaurant. While they were eating, Park Jung-soo mentioned to Jun Hyun-moo, "Do you know why I gave you weight? Because I’m giving you something delicious to eat so you can get healthy and get married quickly if there’s someone to marry." Kwak Tube exposed, "Last time, we tested Hyun-moo's dating cells, and it was pronounced dead," and Park Jung-soo agreed, saying, "That could be true. But Jun Hyun-moo seems really focused on himself, so I don’t think he would feel at a loss with women focusing only on appearances, considering his age isn’t immature anymore. So that gives off a different impression."

Kwak Tube asked, "When do you think Hyun-moo will get married?" and Park Jung-soo answered, "I think he will get married within 5 years." Kwak Tube asked, "Do you think he will get married before turning 50?" and Park Jung-soo replied, "Of course. And what’s wrong with getting married at 50? What’s wrong with getting married at 48? As long as one lives happily. I don’t understand why parents push for marriage. It’s their life, not mine," declaring her beliefs, "The time will come when one says, 'This woman, I can’t live without her,' or 'This man, I can’t live without him.' That’s what I mean. Asking when someone will get married or why they brought someone like that doesn't make sense."

Jun Hyun-moo asked, "Haven't you been actively doing theater until recently?" and Park Jung-soo replied, "I started doing theater in 2015. I’m relatively older in dramas, so maybe they’re avoiding me or perhaps there aren't any suitable roles for me anymore. It seems I've become less involved in dramas and TV shows than in the past. Actors have very strong self-esteem. If I feel I don’t have a sense of presence, it’s very sad. Therefore, I thought, 'I need to let people know I'm still here,' so I've gone back to the stage. I’ve done a few works, and I really enjoy communicating with the audience. They respond, and in theater, there’s no 'do-over.' If my condition isn't good today, I can do better tomorrow. Every day can be different, and that’s really enjoyable," expressing her affection for theater.

Meanwhile, Jun Hyun-moo asked about retirement plans, saying, "Do you have any plans to stop?" and Park Jung-soo replied, "I have no such plans. Unless I reach a point where I can't speak due to literal dementia and start acting strangely, I will keep going. And when someone calls me one day, it would be great if I could go without regrets."
