Time truly flies in the K-Pop world! Former Wonder Girls leader Sunye has officially updated fans on her life, and the details have left everyone stunned.
On the February 27 broadcast of KBS 2TV’s Stars’ Top Recipe at Fun-Staurant, Sunye made a grand entrance as a new chef contestant. Far from the rookie days of the ‘Tell Me’ era, she arrived as a seasoned veteran—not just of the stage, but of the kitchen.
Upon her arrival, the studio was filled with nostalgia. Special MC Kim Yong Bin couldn’t hide his fanboy excitement, confessing, “Back then, I used to dance to ‘Tell Me.’ That’s how much I liked them,” before shyly busting out the iconic choreography.
However, the real shock came when Sunye updated the cast on her family life. While chatting with Chef Lee Yeon Bok regarding her culinary abilities, she casually dropped a bombshell about the passage of time. “I’m raising three daughters, and I cook all three meals for them myself,” she explained. Then, with a smile, she added, “My eldest is already in middle school. I’m a middle school mom now.”
The revelation that the leader of the ‘Nation’s Girl Group’ is now a parent to a middle schooler sent waves of surprise through the studio. But Sunye didn’t stop there; she proved her 14 years of homemaking experience wasn’t just for show.
In the cooking segment, Sunye showcased knife skills and seasoning instincts that rival professional chefs. She revealed that she hand-makes her own essential condiments, including soy sauce, chili oil, and seasoning powders, using natural ingredients. “I got married at 24 and moved to Canada,” she reflected on her journey. “I brought cookbooks with me, tried everything myself, and went through many trials and errors to create my own recipes.”
From a legendary idol to a master of the kitchen, Sunye continues to impress in every chapter of her life!
