On the October 28th broadcast of MBC‘s ‘Section TV Entertainment Relay ‘, Choi Siwon revealed his father’s response to the topic of his family’s wealth that comes up a lot during broadcast.


Not long ago during Super Junior ‘s appearance on ‘Golden Fishery-Radio Star‘, the members of the boy group had boasted about Siwon’s financial power. Member Leeteuk had gone as far as jokingly saying, “[Siwon] can even buy out MBC.


Regarding the issue Siwon stated, “When my father woke up the next morning he asked me, ‘What did you say on broadcast? This is the first time I’ve received so many text messages beginning at the brink of dawn’.


In reply to his statement the reporter asked, “Even if you can’t buy out MBC, can you buy all the flowers here?“, pointing to all of the flowers in the flower shop, in which the interview took place.


Choi Siwon responded to the question saying, “Do you think it would be just the flowers?“, causing a breakout of laughter on set.
