The strong friendship between Lee Yi Kyung and Choi Daniel from "The Oppa of Tteokbokki House" will be revealed.

In MBC Everyone's "The Oppa of Tteokbokki House", which airs at 8:30 p.m. on February 15th, actors Lee Dong Hwi, Choi Daniel, and singer Lee Chan Won will appear to talk to Ji Suk Jin, Kim Jong Min, and Lee Yi Kyung.

In a recent recording, Choi Daniel appeared on a variety show for the first time in 8 years for his best friend Lee Yi Kyung. The two, who met through the KBS 2TV drama "School 2013" in the past, have been building a strong friendship for 10 years.

Lee Yi Kyung recalled 10 years of friendship by confiding in the care and help given to him by his senior Choi Daniel during his difficult rookie days.

Choi Daniel also confessed his difficult days that day. "It's been awkward and hard since I gained popularity with 'High Kick Through the Roof', he said.

He said, "At that time, I was 24 or 25 years old, and I had a lot of decisions and responsibilities compared to my age and experience", adding, "What remains to me in the end? Don't I die even if I make a lot of money? I thought," he recalled the past.

At the same time, Choi Daniel drew attention by showing a calm appearance, saying, "In my 20s, emptiness was the hardest, but now I've overcome it well."
