"I'm really sorry to you," Yoon told Park. "I wrote my name [at the wedding] but couldn't give you the congratulatory money." Park, who was present at the wedding, laughed and acknowledged seeing him. Yoon explained his financial situation at the time, stating, "I really had no money then. I only had 80,000 won in my account because of the opening of 'Nรดtre.' I couldn't give it because I didn't have the money."
