[Sportschosun Kim So-hee Reporter] Shim Soo-chang, a former baseball player turned broadcaster, is set to remarry one year after his divorce.
In a preview clip for TV Chosun's hyper-realistic documentary variety show "Love Pro," which will air on Monday, the 22nd, Shim Soo-chang, who divorced last year, visits Yang Sang-guk's "6th Grade Club" audition. Yang cautiously asked, "You have been through pain... Would it be okay for a wedding to air on television while you are dreaming of love again through a broadcast?" Shim replied, "I contacted my ex-wife. She said she hopes things go well for me." Kim Guk-jin, who was watching the audition, said, "The fact that she is cheering you on means you parted on good terms," admiring their mature relationship despite the pain of divorce.
Shim then honestly shared his wish, saying, "I originally wanted to have children as soon as possible. Since I don't have any children... Seeing a junior's son get drafted and go pro this time makes me want to find new love even faster." Hwang Bo-ra, watching from the studio, also sympathized, saying, "Ah, he really means it."
Shim also revealed in detail his realistic housing situation after becoming single again following seven years of marriage. He said, "I used to own a home, but after the divorce I let go of a lot and started a new life by renting." He added, "I am starting over in a small officetel."
Meanwhile, Yang Sang-guk, who is serious about marriage, used the bitter result of being rated "6th Grade" by a marriage agency as a turning point. He announced the formation of the "6th Grade Club," bringing together men in similar situations and stepping up efforts to find marriage prospects. Attention is now focused on who will join Yang's "6th Grade Club" and what path the group will take next.
The identities of the members who will join Yang Sang-guk in the "6th Grade Club" marriage project will be revealed on TV Chosun's hyper-realistic documentary variety show "Love Pro" at 10 p.m. on June 22.
