Channel A's 'Best Friends Documentary – Dining Table for Four' features comedian Lee Kyung-sil.
Lee Kyung-sil sets a table at a cooking studio run by her close friend, culinary researcher Lee Bo-eun, where she received comfort during tough times and welcomes another close friend, Lee Su-ji. Lee Bo-eun reveals that it has been 25 years since they connected by joining Lee Kyung-sil's fan cafe, and through the story of how she prepared a birthday table for Lee Kyung-sil during her hard times which brought her to tears, it showcases the strong bond between the two. Additionally, Lee Bo-eun confesses that when a reporter suggested accompanying her as her husband to Lee Kyung-sil's private wedding, she declined and entered alone, prompting Lee Su-ji to ask in return, 'Was that the first wedding or the second wedding?' creating a wave of laughter.
Continuing, Lee Kyung-sil shares that she sent a text instead of calling to invite her busy junior, Lee Su-ji, to avoid putting pressure on her and explains the behind-the-scenes of the invitation. In response, Lee Su-ji recounts her connection with Lee Kyung-sil from a program she appeared on with her late mother-in-law, expressing that seeing Lee Kyung-sil reminds her of her deceased mother-in-law and brings up emotions.
Lee Kyung-sil's sauna talk continues, as she is known to be a sauna enthusiast. MC Park Kyung-rim, who has visited saunas with her in the past, experienced fainting spells while going back and forth between hot and cold baths with Lee Kyung-sil. Lee Su-ji, who also loves saunas, shares that she has sauna friends who are all in their 60s and 70s, and they keep recommending cruise trips, making everyone burst into laughter.
Meanwhile, Lee Kyung-sil, who established herself as a prominent figure in comedy with her unique character 'Mrs. Dorumu' and impersonations of Jang Mi-hee, says she watches Lee Su-ji's videos whenever she feels down and reveals videos she has saved on her phone. In response, Lee Su-ji spontaneously performs her character 'Deputy Minister of Dermatology' and 'Rapper Ham-bugi,' and Lee Kyung-sil perfectly imitates her characters, leading to laughter. The enduring status of the 'godmother of comedy' prompts MC Park Kyung-rim to exclaim, 'How have you held on all this time? If Lee Su-ji is here now, the original is Lee Kyung-sil.'
Lee Kyung-sil's life story is also revealed. She names her sister-in-law, who lived with her from her college days until her first marriage, as the person she misses the most. She recalls how her sister-in-law brought her food while she was hospitalized during her divorce, reminiscing about the memory when she was too delicious to stop eating, even though reporters could show up at any moment. She especially remembers her sister-in-law, who passed away from cancer in the year she remarried, saying, 'I think I can go lightly if I meet a good person,' expressing her longing for her sister-in-law.
