Actor Lee Sang-yeop made a verbal mistake and begged his wife for forgiveness.
On the 21st, a video titled "Is there an actor who wants an entertainment award rather than an acting award? | Surviving Lee Sang-yeop's sweet but fierce newlywed life" was uploaded to the "Jo Dongari" channel.
On this day, Lee Sang-yeop, who married in March last year, appeared as a guest on 'Jo Dongari'. Responding to comments that he had lost a lot of weight, he said, "Don't they say that if you do theater, you have nightmares? On stage, I have dreams of forgetting my lines and the nightmares are pretty long. Even now, while performing, I still have those dreams a little bit when I'm asleep."
Ji Seok-jin asked, "You got married, didn't you? So that's why you lost weight? Think about it carefully," Lee Sang-yeop responded, "But my wife recently enjoys cooking, so the menus have diversified compared to what I usually eat. I'm eating a lot of different dishes," but also added, "So I should be gaining weight, but am I sick? Why am I losing weight like this?"
Hearing this, Kim Yong-man noted, "Wait a minute, this was omitted in the middle, but it might sound like you're saying your wife's food isn't tasty. It seems like it diversified but just doesn't suit your taste," Lee Sang-yeop panicked and waved his hands, then earnestly appealed to the camera saying, "It's delicious!" causing laughter.
Lee Sang-yeop also mentioned he has decent cooking skills. Given that he had launched convenience store foods through 'Pyeon Restaurant', Ji Seok-jin asked, "What does your wife say about that food? Does she say it's delicious?" However, Lee Sang-yeop replied, "My wife is very cold" and shared, "Recently, she came to watch a play and saw the first performance. She watched 'Ana X' and after coming home, she flipped through the script and said, 'Do it from the beginning again.' I was sitting comfortably and she told me to stand. My wife said since this is a two-person play, she would take on the role of the opponent. At some point, she memorized her lines. While acting together as she memorized, I thought, why is she acting like this? So I guess I had to keep acting at home and that's why I lost weight?" He added, "Since my wife memorized her lines, I felt a bit embarrassed as someone who does this for a living, so I ended up doing more, and so synergy was created there."
Ji Seok-jin asked, "How did you meet?" Lee Sang-yeop shared, "It was a blind date. On the day we met, I drove slowly, thinking, this is the person. Her eyes were very lively. She was really beautiful. You're supposed to open the door when you do a blind date. I rolled down the window and nervously said, 'Hello,' but she was waiting for me. She didn't open the door. She tried to, but the door was locked. When I got into the car and took off my mask, she was so beautiful. I was so nervous then that I drove like this. I could hardly look over there."
When asked, "How long after you met did you get married?" Lee Sang-yeop responded, "We booked the venue after about 5 or 6 months. My wife had a romantic venue she wanted. We had it on hold and wanted to have it in spring, but we got married exactly on that very day, which could be a sad story for someone. We went there. Usually, people choose a date for the wedding, but we had no time to worry about that. There was only that date available. When I mentioned this, I thought, wait, this is real marriage? I hesitated, but then she said, let's do it now, so I stood up and deposited the contract fee on the spot," drawing admiration.
He said, "So it felt like a connection, and Kim Yong-man was surprised, saying, 'Your wife is amazing. Just like that.' Lee Sang-yeop shared, "She's extremely cool. I'm very indecisive. When we go golfing together, my wife stands behind me, arms crossed, watching. Someone took a picture and said it looked like a player and coach." He continued, "I'm a bit F type, but my wife is T type. It was difficult at first. But I thought to myself, I'm really struggling and feeling sad. Why is she saying that? Still, I feel like I'm learning a lot about socializing."
In particular, Lee Sang-yeop shared his concerns about coming home late after drinking with the cast of 'Stage Fighter' after a performance yesterday, saying, "My wife was quite angry." He mentioned, "I called a bit late," and Ji Seok-jin pointed out, "It's about when you call, not about coming home late that makes her angry." Kim Yong-man offered a tip saying, "When you go out, always say you have plans for that night. It's good to come home early." Lee Sang-yeop expressed his curiosity, saying, "I wanted to ask about things like this, wisdom like this," but added humorously, "I might get scolded if this airs. Wouldn't I end up on TV next week looking all puffy?" and urgently requested help, making everyone laugh.
Meanwhile, when asked which work matched him best so far, Lee Sang-yeop responded, "While I sometimes portray characters that are very different from me, there are also characters that resonate with me. There was a weekend drama on KBS called 'Once Again' where I played as a couple with Lim Min-jung. At that time, improvisation and everything was very comfortable for me, and the drama set was so much fun."
Ji Seok-jin inquired, "Is that about 'Once Again' and talking about marriage?" Lee Sang-yeop replied, "That's what it was. It was said that our real love began after the divorce," Ji Seok-jin then questioned, "But did that match well?" Sensing something amiss, Lee Sang-yeop said, "Wait a minute. Then, brother..." Ji Seok-jin jokingly teased, "So that was your method acting," and Lee Sang-yeop quickly turned to the camera and pleaded, "It's not like that, dear!"
In response, Ji Seok-jin joked, "It's not like we went down that road at all," Lee Sang-yeop anxiously commented, "This was filmed before the marriage. It's very stressful." Ji Seok-jin replied, "I know it was filmed before your marriage," and Kim Yong-man added, "You were really bright back then." Ji Seok-jin reassured him, "You'll be okay, no worries; just don't have misunderstandings," Lee Sang-yeop conveyed his struggles, sharing, "I used to play a divorced character all the time. In 'Good Casting' I was a divorced man, in 'Once Again' I was too, and in 'Lovers in the Afternoon at Three' I was divorced as well. So I had thoughts like, 'Am I a specialist in divorced men? I haven't even been married yet.'"
