Actor Lee Yi Kyung opened up about how his father, a former high-ranking executive at LG, reacted dramatically when he found out his son was starring in a gay-themed movie.

On January 20th, a new video on the YouTube channel Jjanhan Hyung Shin Dong Yup featured Lee Yi Kyung alongside Hitman 2 co-stars Kwon Sang Woo and Hwang Woo Seul Hye and shared personal stories, including his early acting career.

Lee Yi Kyung talked about his movie One Night and Two Days, a queer film that revolves around homosexuality, revealing that he filmed it without his father's knowledge.

"It was a queer movie. It’s about homosexuality, and I filmed it secretly without telling my parents," he explained. "But when they saw the script, it caused chaos in the family".

He continued, sharing how his father reacted after reading a part of the script that mentioned a sex scene.

"My parents were shocked and called me while I was filming. My father asked, 'Are you filming a project called One Night and Two Days?' I said yes, and then he said, 'Stop everything and come home. I’ll pay the production costs, just come home quickly'".

Shin Dong Yeop, Kwon Sang Woo, and Hwang Woo Seul Hye couldn't help but laugh at the situation. "Wow, the family was in chaos," said Shin. Kwon added, "LG wouldn’t allow that!" while Hwang joked, "Father, I’m your adopted son."

Lee Yi Kyung’s father, Lee Woong Bum, is a former executive at LG Electronics, having served as the president of LG Innotek and the head of LG Chem's Battery Division.

After retiring from his corporate role in 2017, he became the president of Yeonam University in 2018 and held the position until 2020. In the past, Lee Yi Kyung has also shared how his family opposed his decision to pursue acting.

Former S.E.S member Shoo (Yoo Soo Young) warmed hearts as she shared a touching moment with her twin daughters—taking them to the same wholesale market where she once worked during a difficult time in her life.

On May 8, Shoo posted several photos on Instagram showing her spending time with her twin daughters, Ra Hee and Ra Yul, at the Dongdaemun wholesale market. In the caption, she wrote, “Did everyone enjoy the holiday? I feel like I made a memory I’ll never forget for the rest of my life.”

The photos showed Shoo and her daughters smiling brightly while eating and shopping together. Her daughters, now visibly grown up, were even seen wearing similar shoes and clothes as their mom.

Shoo opened up about a painful chapter in her past. “When I was struggling, I once sold clothes I got from Dongdaemun with the help of a friend,” she shared. “I used to go there from night to early morning, picking up fleece clothes, hairpins, and shoes, thinking, ‘My kids would love this if I brought them here.’”

Now that her daughters are older, Shoo finally fulfilled that dream. “We laughed so much while shopping. We bought hairpins, socks, and clothes together,” she said. “They’ve grown so much—they can even wear the same things as me.”

Reflecting on the experience, she added, “Memories of my past flashed before my eyes. I told them how I used to work late at night, carrying heavy bags and walking around for 10 hours straight.”

Shoo emotionally concluded, “I was so happy to show my kids the nighttime world I once worked in.”

Fans who remember Shoo’s twins from The Return of Superman were touched to see how much they’ve grown. Shoo, now a proud mom of three, continues to update fans through her TV appearances and social media, showing her strength as both a mother and former idol.
