Singer Kim Sang-hyuk recently took part in a blind date arranged for the Channel A variety show “Groom Class 2,” according to multiple South Korean outlets including Chosun Ilbo. The meeting took place on a train, where he was introduced to Kim Ra-hee, a home shopping show host who is 13 years his junior.
During their first encounter, Kim Sang-hyuk reportedly held her hand and asked directly whether she was comfortable with the fact that he is a divorced single, often referred to in Korean as a “dolsing.” The question came early in their conversation, signaling his intent to be upfront about his personal history from the start.
Kim Ra-hee is a former Miss Korea contestant, as noted in reports from Maeil Business Newspaper and Sports Kyunghyang. Her background as a show host and beauty pageant alumna added to the interest surrounding the pairing. The two were seen engaging in conversation during the train ride, with Kim Sang-hyuk expressing that he would like to see her again if she was open to it.
The episode is part of the ongoing season of “Groom Class 2,” a program that follows single celebrities as they navigate dating and relationships. Kim Sang-hyuk, known for his work as a member of the duo Click-B, has been candid about his past marriage and current search for a partner on the show.
Viewers can expect to see how Kim Ra-hee responds to his candid approach and whether the two decide to pursue a second meeting in upcoming episodes of the program.
