Broadcaster Lee Young-ja reported that she has cautiously started exercising despite having poor joints and back due to a herniated disc.
On the 21st, a video titled "A different scale: big-handed Lee Young-ja's challenge!" was uploaded to the "Lee Young-ja TV" channel.
That day Lee Young-ja ran lightly around the second house yard for one lap. The production staff asked, "Are you running to watch?" and Lee Young-ja said, "It's not that, I promised Seon. I was told that because my joints and back have disc problems, running is bad, so I didn't run and only rode a bicycle. But they said I can start slowly. They said I should start with one lap. They say starting is half the battle. But I almost ran two laps, right? It's finished," she said.
Not long after, Lee Young-ja hid by the refrigerator and panted, "I ran that.." She said, "Seon gave me a lot of homework today."
Later, a video of her meeting with Seon was released. Seon advised Lee Young-ja, who was attempting running, "You don't need to overdo it from the start; you can lightly walk, then jog, or just walk."
He also proposed, "I will start the 2025 ice bucket challenge, and if I nominate someone, they must dump ice water on themselves within 24 hours and nominate three people."
Lee Young-ja promised, "I appreciate that it lets people start lightly, not with the mindset of 'donating is difficult' or 'I have to give a lot of money.' Thank you. I will join."
Accordingly, Lee Young-ja cooked bean sprout pot rice following Lee Hye-young's bean sprout pot rice recipe taught by Seon, prepared ice water, and carried out the ice bucket challenge in the yard.
She said, "Seon nominated me. He nominated me for the ice bucket challenge to raise operating funds for the Lou Gehrig's disease hospital. I will do it," and with the help of the production staff she poured ice water over herself, saying, "Wow, it's fortunate it's not winter. I couldn't do this in winter." She then nominated the next sequence, saying, "I nominate Hong Hyun-hee and Jasson and Jun-beom's family. Hyun-hee, Jasson, and Jun-beom too. All three families do it in the bathhouse!"
