The Return of SUPERMAN's Lee Chan-won reserves joining 'The Return of Superman'.
The Return of SUPERMAN (directed by Kim Young-min, hereafter "The Return of SUPERMAN") has been loved by the public for 13 years since it first aired in 2013. In 2023, following Eun-woo, on the 2nd and 3rd weeks of June in the TV-OTT non-drama institutional sector personality buzz category, "The Return of SUPERMAN" Jung-woo proved he is the youngest, most sensational sibling by ranking in the top 10 for two consecutive weeks, and on the 2nd week of August in the same category, "The Return of SUPERMAN" Ha-ru and Shim Hyung-tak both entered the top 10 at the same time, proving viewers' strong interest.

The 594th episode of "The Return of SUPERMAN," which airs on the 22nd, is titled "Uncle who won an award came to visit," and features the three MCs Park Soo-hong, Choi Ji-woo and Ahn Young-mi along with Superman Kim Jun-ho.
Lee Chan-won, who visited "The Return of SUPERMAN" to meet Eun-woo and Jung-woo, draws attention by planning to join "The Return of SUPERMAN" even before getting married. Lee Chan-won said, "I'll definitely get married," and noted his ideal type is "a pure style," attracting interest. He went on to say, "I want to have at least two children," and specified, "The first will be a daughter, the second a son," then after revealing detailed child plans he laughed as he imagined everything from marriage to parenting, saying, "If I have a baby, I should join 'The Return of SUPERMAN.'"
Especially, fans are even stepping forward to help Lee Chan-won get married. Lee Chan-won confessed, "Fans arrange marriage prospects through messages," saying that during a concert a letter handed to him contained a profile of a fan's granddaughter. In response, Ahn Young-mi said, "I would probably do the same," actively sympathizing and saying it would be nice if Lee Chan-won became her grandson-in-law.
Although Lee Chan-won has no parenting experience, he plays with Eun-woo and Jung-woo with his whole body, demonstrating "max-level parenting" skills. He even skillfully changed Jung-woo's diaper, surprising everyone. Kim Jun-ho repeatedly marveled, "Chan-won takes care of babies so well."
