Choi Tae-joon mentioned his wife Park Shin-hye. On the 2nd, on MBC's 'Radio Star' aired in Korea, guests Shin Hyun-joon, Kim Hae-eun, Kim Jong-hyun, and Choi Tae-joon appeared. A feature on 'Weekend Family' was organized. Choi Tae-joon, who is in his third year of marriage with Park Shin-hye, revealed on this broadcast, 'The lineup at the wedding was like a concert.' 'Actually, since my wife is in the same profession, it is really difficult to talk about her. When she is working on a project, I worry that mentioning her might disrupt her focus,' he explained. He prefaced, 'I am grateful that topics arise according to the level of interest in me, but I try not to mention her first.' Hearing this, Kim Gura pointed out, 'Your preface is long,' eliciting laughter. Choi Tae-joon continued, 'Fortunately, Lee Hong-gi, D.O. (from EXO), CRUSH, and senior Lee Juk sang celebratory songs for us,' reflecting on the wedding. He added, 'Regarding senior Lee Juk, I had heard that he usually doesn’t accept requests for celebratory songs. I thought it was polite to get prior consent from seniors attending the wedding, so I told him, 'Hong-gi brother is likely to sing your song.' Then, the senior said, 'Why not just ask me?' and he sang beautifully, which moved me. It was a happy wedding.' During the broadcast, he also mentioned the 'fate theory' with Park Shin-hye. Choi Tae-joon said, 'We have a lot in common. I have seen photos that fans have overlapped, and our ears look very similar.' He explained, 'Every time the topic of my wife comes up, I don’t know what to say. This is the first time I’ve talked about it properly, so I’m very nervous.' He revealed stories about their work. When asked if they monitor each other's work, he said, 'We don’t talk much about work. When we’re home, we only talk about family matters,' and added, 'Advice might sound like nagging, so I don’t read my wife’s scripts in advance. When I watch her work, I just enjoy it. I don’t keep track of the story developments and watch as a loving viewer.' Regarding their daily conversations, he said, 'We often talk about things like, 'What should we eat today?' I just support my wife and wish for her success.' He also mentioned, 'Of course, we do argue sometimes.' 'In terms of MBTI, I’m a T and my wife is an F. I often communicate directly without prefaces to those close to me because I focus on problem-solving first.' He also revealed his straightforward personality.
