On the September 22 broadcast of SBS's "You're my destiny," national snowboard team athlete Kim Sang-kyum joined as a new fate couple alongside his wife Park Han-sol.
On this day's broadcast, the couple headed to Bongsansa Temple, explaining that it is a place they always visit before competitions.
Heading to the Seolbeopjeon hall, the two bowed their heads upon meeting a monk, who warmly welcomed them back. The person they subsequently bowed to three times alongside was none other than Ven. Hosan.
Known as the snowboarding monk, he has hosted the Dalma Cup Snowboard Competition for over 20 years to nurture and support promising talents. Notably, it was revealed that Olympic snowboard medalists Lee Sang-ho, Oh Seung-eun, Choi Ga-on, and Kim Sang-kyum are all Dalma Kids, drawing attention.
Kim Sang-kyum, who formed a connection with the monk 20 years ago when he was a high school senior, shared, "I am also an alum of the Dalma Cup. When there was no sponsorship, thanks to the monk, I was able to use the Dalma Cup prize money to go to overseas training camps. I haven't forgotten that grace."
In response, Ven. Hosan said, "I am glad to hear that it was helpful," and the couple expressed their aspirations, saying, "We also want to succeed and become people who can lend a hand to someone in need," creating a heartwarming atmosphere.
