Episode 9 of Noona is a Woman to Me premiered on Viu on December 22, shifting the focus of the series. The episode revealed the ages of all contestants after weeks of buildup. Attention centered on Mujin and Bon-hee, the most discussed pairing since the show began. It's disclosed that Mujin was born in 1999, while Bon-hee is 1987 born. The reveal confirmed a 12-year age difference, placing Bon-hee as the oldest participant among both male and female contestants.
From the opening episodes, the pair drew steady attention online. However, the age disclosure changed how viewers interpreted their dynamic. Discussions quickly turned toward the practicality of their connection. Some viewers questioned the casting choice. Others noted that a smaller age gap would have felt more balanced within Noona is A Woman to Me format.
"Can pdnim show us all the bonhee mujin unrelease clips, their 2 more dates & next preview about them just to calm our mind…🥹🙏🏻12 years apart is too cruel for both, aigoo 😭#NoonaIsAWomanToMe," an X user commented.can pdnim show us all the bonhee mujin unrelease clips, their 2 more dates & next preview about them just to calm our mind…🥹🙏🏻 12 years apart is too cruel for both, aigoo 😭 #NoonaIsAWomanToMe
The reaction also included scrutiny of production decisions, with viewers questioning the timing of the reveal. Several comments pointed out that emotions had already formed before the ages were disclosed. Another detail gained traction online. Bon-hee’s younger brother is eleven years younger than she is. So, the 12-year age gap with Mujin does not sit well with online netizens.
No but 12 years is a bit crazy😭😭 what were these makers on omg
the prob is not really on the 12 years age gap, but the fact that bonhee has younger brother that is 11 years younger #NoonaIsAWomanToMe
it’s a but evil for Bonhee if you think about! I wonder if they asked beforehand what the age limit was a no-no for everyone because this is a bit mad! Not a big big deal for westerners but don’t know how it’s like in Korea! Don’t think it’s as common 🙂↔️ #NoonaIsAWomanToMe
While I do understand the intention behind the program, I must say the Producers are Wicked.A 5-6 year gap would have been better.Why make the participants have feelings and then get their hearts broken for the shock value or entertainment?IT'S NOT UNNY.#noonaisawomantome
Meanwhile, others couldn’t believe Bon-hee’s age.
damn 12 year i thought she like 32 year old or something
Wowwww she's almost 40. I thought she was younger than that like 35/36 at most. She really looks wayyyyy younger than her age. But I think Mujin doesn't mind of her age, but idk abt her.
No f*cking way she’s 40 🤯 I thought she was at most 32
