Actor Lee Bum-soo appeared on My Little Old Boy and revealed his life after divorce, prompting mixed reactions from viewers.
On the 12th episode of SBS' My Little Old Boy, Lee Bum-soo, who recently announced an agreed divorce, joined as a new member and for the first time revealed his life living alone.
That day Lee Bum-soo showed himself living alone in the house where he had lived with his family. In the spacious house there was only minimal furniture, and the kitchen and living room likewise gave off a more subdued atmosphere. He cooked dried pollack soup himself to have a meal and spent time finding and tidying the children's rooms.
In particular, a note found in his son Daeul's room that read "Dad, good luck every day!" captured viewers' attention. Lee Bum-soo quietly spent time organizing spaces filled with memories of his children, adding poignancy to the scene.
However, after the broadcast a variety of reactions followed among some viewers. Some netizens reacted, "It feels more complicated because it's after a second divorce," and "It's hard to watch comfortably when thinking about the divorce process."
On the other hand, opinions such as "It seems he calmly showed his daily life" and "You could feel his feelings for his children" also continued, creating a split in viewers' perspectives.
Lee Bum-soo married interpreter Lee Yoon-jin in 2010, but the marriage ended in divorce after 14 years. After about two years of conflict, the agreed divorce was finalized in February.
Because the various controversies that arose during the divorce process are still being discussed, the varied reactions of viewers to his appearance on My Little Old Boy are likely to continue for the time being.<
