Jang Do-yeon admits past crush on 20-year friend Huh Kyung-hwan, predicts his marriage "next year"
Comedian Jang Do-yeon confessed on Huh Kyung-hwan's web show that she's felt romantic attraction to him since her 2007 debut—across two decades of friendship.
A 20-year friendship, one long-held flutter
Comedian Jang Do-yeon has admitted she's felt romantic excitement toward Huh Kyung-hwan at various points since her debut in 2007. That friendship now spans two decades. She made the confession on episode 10 of Huh Kyung-hwan's Trending Words Make You Happy (허경환의 유행어로 행복하쇼), which aired November 11 on T-cast E channel and the YouTube channel 'ggzz'.
She was direct about where her head is now on relationships. "I'm no longer naive," Jang said. "If the other person gives me just 1% certainty, I can raise my interest to 80%." A sharp turn from someone who's been vocal about staying single.
Marriage predictions fly both ways
They swapped predictions about each other's futures. Jang told Huh: "Huh Kyung-hwan will get married sooner than me. It seems like it will happen next year or soon." Huh countered with his own read: "Do-yeon will probably get married within 3 years."

Jang also talked about her reaction to seeing Huh land a solo MC role for the program. "When I saw the poster, I was moved," she said. She felt proud because it looked like he was "recognized as someone who is content enough on his own."
