Broadcaster Gwanghui drew laughs after confessing in front of his former agency sunbae Seo In-young of Jewelry that "all my plastic surgery was paid for with Jewelry's money."

A video titled "Hwang Gwang-hee, the agency's direct junior, exposes Seo In-young's legendary character" was posted Wednesday on the YouTube channel "Gaegwacheoonseon Seo In-young."

That day, Seo In-young and Gwanghui reunited in front of the Star Empire building where they had both worked.

Looking around the building, Seo In-young reflected on her time there. "This is the place I was part of for 10 years," she said, adding that fellow Jewelry member Park Jung-ah had earned money that helped bring the agency to the building and that she herself had then contributed to its finances. Gwanghui replied that by the time the building was purchased, Seo In-young had already made it big.

Gwanghui then joked, "There are about nine pillars in this building — Park Jung-ah and you each put up 4.5 of them. We used that money for our activities, and I used it to get all my plastic surgery done," sending the room into laughter.

Gwanghui also expressed admiration for Seo In-young. "The reason I joined Star Empire was because of you. I always recognized and respected your variety show talent," he said. Seo In-young replied, "I recognize your variety show talent too."

Gwanghui added that Seo In-young never showed jealousy even when younger idols joined the agency.

Seo In-young quipped in response, "That's because I was too busy going to clubs. For me, plans after work always came before being here," drawing another round of laughter.
