BLACKPINK's Jisoo was told she is "the daughter of Sanbon," and she waved it off on the spot: that title, she said, belongs to figure skater Kim Yuna, who even has a figure-skating mural in the neighborhood. The exchange comes from the episode of SBS's variety show Tiki-Taka Break airing on the 10th, where Jisoo and TWICE's Nayeon join hosts Yoo Jae-suk and Yoo Yeon-seok in Sanbon-dong, Gunpo, Gyeonggi Province.

Jisoo first proved her local credentials by pointing to a nearby apartment building and saying she lived there until she was 10. When the others began calling her the neighborhood's daughter, she waved her hands in refusal, leaving everyone briefly confused. Then she explained herself, and the room agreed with her: Kim Yuna is the real "daughter of Sanbon." Yoo Yeon-seok offered a compromise, suggesting Kim Yuna be the first daughter and Jisoo the second.

Trainee friends with a reputation

The pairing of Jisoo and Nayeon surprised Yoo Jae-suk, who asked how the two had grown so close. Jisoo said they have been friends since their trainee days and still eat together often. She also recalled that both were well known inside their own agencies back then. When someone trains for a long time, she explained, word gets around that a certain trainee is the "ace," and for her generation that trainee was Nayeon.

A neighbor Yoo Jae-suk had not placed

The other surprise came when Yoo Jae-suk asked where Nayeon lives. She answered that she lives in Nonhyeon-dong, then added that it is the same apartment complex as his. Yoo, caught off guard, explained that he had only remembered her living in Seongsu-dong and had gotten confused, which made Nayeon burst out laughing.

The complex is a high-end residential development in Gangnam District's Nonhyeon-dong made up entirely of large units. Yoo is reported to have bought a penthouse there in 2024 for about 8.7 billion won, paid fully in cash, and to live there now.

Tiki-Taka Break is a variety show that hands out small windfalls to people during the spare moments of their day. It airs Tuesdays at 9 p.m. on SBS.
