Lee Sang-min said, "Success has been achieved up to in vitro fertilization... currently attempting implantation, I am grateful for just this."
In 'My Little Old Boy,' Lee Sang-min shared through the broadcast that he is challenging in vitro fertilization.
In the episode aired on the 6th, SBS's variety show 'My Little Old Boy' featured Lee Sang-min and his wife sharing their journey to have a child through in vitro fertilization.
On that day, Lee Sang-min started by saying, "My wife was the first to say, 'Let's register our marriage and have a baby.' I was grateful for that message." He continued, "I felt jealous when I saw fathers pushing baby strollers."
In particular, it was revealed that they are currently undergoing in vitro fertilization and have succeeded up to fertilization. Lee Sang-min noted, "In any case, my sperm and your egg have met and fertilization has been successful. Now all that's left is implantation. I am grateful that we have come this far at our age."
On the way to the hospital, Lee Sang-min expressed concern for his wife, saying, "It's so hard that I can't do this twice," and his wife replied, "If you've made up your mind, you have to do it. Once you get older, even if you want to do it, you can't." She confessed, "I can manage going to the hospital alone for injections, but I have severe mood swings. I get extremely sensitive and then calm down again," evoking sympathy.
Viewers watching the broadcast reacted with comments such as, "I support your brave challenge," "I hope the two of you receive good news," and "I could really feel your sincerity."
Meanwhile, that day, Lee Sang-min made headlines by revealing his wife, who is 10 years younger than him, for the first time.
