On June 16, KISS OF LIFE’s Belle and her fellow group member Haneul joined MBC FM4U’s Kim Shin Young’s Noon Song of Hope as special guests. While the duo was there to discuss their music, lives, and latest updates, it was a lighthearted and unexpected revelation about actor Park Bo Gum that ended up stealing the spotlight. During the show, host Kim Shin Young brought up a viral internet rumor involving Belle’s mother. With a playful tone, she said, “Belle’s mother said she had dibs on Park Bo Gum as her son-in-law,” prompting immediate laughter in the studio.
Belle didn’t hold back in confirming the rumor, laughing as she shared that it was, in fact, true. She explained that her mother is a massive fan of Park Bo Gum and had openly expressed her dream of having someone like him as a son-in-law. The singer went on to read aloud a recent message her mom had sent her, which said, “Bring me a son-in-law like Park Bo Gum. It would be the perfect son-in-law for me.” The hilarious and heartfelt confession had everyone in the studio giggling, especially when Kim Shin Young playfully remarked that Belle’s father, singer Shim Sin, might get jealous of his wife’s open admiration for the actor.
However, Belle brushed off the idea with ease and humor, clarifying that her father takes it all in stride and considers it just a harmless joke. She emphasized that there’s nothing to be jealous of and that it’s simply her mom being a passionate fan. Interestingly, this isn’t the first time Belle’s mom’s affection for Park Bo Gum has come up publicly. When KISS OF LIFE appeared on KBS2’s The Seasons – Park Bo Gum’s Cantabile, Belle had already revealed her mom’s admiration, prompting the actor to sweetly address her directly on camera, saying, “Mother, hello. This is Park Bo Gum sending my regards.”
Following the radio broadcast, fans couldn’t help but react with amusement and affection as the story circulated once again online. Many praised Belle’s mom’s “excellent taste” and joked that they too shared the same dream of Park Bo Gum joining their family. The heartwarming and hilarious anecdote not only highlighted Belle’s candid personality but also showcased a wholesome family dynamic that many found incredibly relatable and endearing.
