SBS 'Ugly Duckling' has aired Kim Gun Mo's sweet proposal to his bride Jang Ji Yeon.
The broadcast showed Kim Gun Mo's mother gushing about her soon to be daughter-in-law saying, "How could I sit still and not talk about his upcoming marriage. From the first time I saw her, I could find nothing to place blame. I liked her from the first meeting."
The program also aired footage of Kim Gun Mo proposing to Jang Ji Yeon. Kim Gun Mo wrote the words he wanted to convey on a styrofoam board decorated with soju lids and roses and played a sweet song on a piano. While singing, Kim Gun Mo eventually shed tears and Jang Ji Yeon who saw it also blocked her mouth showing tears of emotion. Seo Jang Hoon who was in the studio also shed tears while watching Kim Gun Mo's video.
"I decided to get married because she kept pushing it and pushing it," Kim said. "But then after a lot of thought I made the decision right away," he said. To which his mother and Jang Ji-yeon laughed brightly. "It's not much of a story but I felt really happy and I thought I should get married right away. "
Kim Gun Mo is currently under fire for allegations of sexual assault brought forward by lawyers Kang Yong Seok and Kim Se Ui on their Garo Sero Research Institute YouTube channel on the 6th. Kang Yong Seok stated "that he met with a woman twice that alleged that Kim Gun Mo sexually assaulted her at his host bar in Gangnam and they plan to file an official complaint with the Court on the 9th."
Immediately after reports, Kim Gun Mo denied the allegations and pushed forward with his concert. SBS 'Ugly Duckling' also made the decision to air his broadcast on the 8th at 9:50pm where Kang Daniel also made a guest appearance.
Kim Gun Mo completed his marriage registration with his pianist and songwriter bride-to-be Jang Ji Yeon in late october and the two are set to get married in May next year.
