The popular KBS 2TV variety show, Boss's Ear is Donkey Ear (사장님 귀는 당나귀 귀), has sparked new marriage rumors, this time involving hosts Kim Sook (김숙) and Koo Bon-seung (구본승). Following previous speculation surrounding Jeon Hyun-moo (전현무) and Hong Joo-yeon (홍주연), the chemistry between Kim Sook and Koo Bon-seung has caught the attention of viewers.

During the episode aired on April 13, Koo Bon-seung appeared as a special MC, and the playful banter between him and Kim Sook hinted at a deeper connection. Jeon Hyun-moo wasted no time in questioning Koo about sitting next to Kim, to which Koo responded, "It feels new. I've never sat next to her before. I can see her dimples really well today." Kim Sook blushed at the compliment, adding to the flirtatious atmosphere.

As the tension built, Lee Soon-sil (이순실) jokingly asked if Koo was Kim's husband, while Park Myung-soo (박명수) inquired about their potential marriage plans for this fall. Kim Sook playfully replied, "I will follow my oppa's (older brother's) opinion," suggesting a special affection for Koo. A caption reading 'Bon-seung♡Sook, Wedding March on October 7' flashed on the screen, further fueling the speculation.

Kim Sook humorously remarked, "I guess I’m getting married later than Hyun-moo," referencing Jeon Hyun-moo's earlier rumored relationship with Hong Joo-yeon, which had also been a lighthearted joke on the show. Jeon Hyun-moo chimed in, saying, "I’m currently in a relationship," continuing the playful narrative around marriage rumors.

Throughout the episode, Kim Sook maintained the romantic undertones with Koo Bon-seung, even expressing her willingness to buy him anything he desires, including a camera she gifted him. Park Myung-soo praised Kim Sook, calling her smart and financially savvy, while Jeon Hyun-moo suggested that their YouTube collaboration could lead to a real-life partnership.

Meanwhile, Jeon Hyun-moo seemed to enjoy the ongoing fake marriage rumors with Hong Joo-yeon, openly engaging in the playful narrative rather than denying it. He even commented on a painting gifted to an announcer, saying, "Joo-yeon is prettier," showing his continued interest in her.

The playful dynamics and teasing on 'Boss's Ear is Donkey Ear' have left fans eagerly speculating about the relationships and potential romances among the cast.
