'Jeonwon Ilgi Gaettong-mom' Lee Sang-mi turned down a wealthy man with 50 billion won in annual sales.
On the 27th broadcast of Chosun's Lover, original national daughter-in-law actress Lee Sang-mi, who had cared for her ailing mother for 21 years, set out to find new love after sending her mother off. Having lived with her mother for more than 40 years, Lee Sang-mi boasted an ageless look at 64 and surprised viewers by dating two men consecutively.
Lee Sang-mi first enjoyed a yacht date with an older man who is the head of a shoe company and had achieved annual sales of 50 billion won. The first man called Lee Sang-mi "Miss Korea," gifted her red leather shoes, and personally served various seafood such as octopus and black porgy and chicken soup to win her heart. Lee Sang-mi honestly expressed her feelings about the divorced suitor, saying, "After hearing his life story, I thought, 'his character looks different,'" while also saying, "I need someone to spend my later years with affection. I felt he was not the person I was looking for," referring to his busy life devoted to his business.
The second man who appeared immediately stirred Lee Sang-mi's heart with a dignified appearance reminiscent of Lee Sang-mi's ideal type, actor George Clooney. He, who works in marble interior construction, said he had been a longtime fan of Lee Sang-mi since the drama since Jeonwon Ilgi and stimulated the female viewers' hearts by presenting a wedding poem and flowers. Lee Sang-mi smiled, saying, "I was so excited and fresh. I felt like I was back in my 20s," but showed distress when she learned that her date, who fits her preference for older partners, was younger. However, the second man said, "I rather think younger people take better care," and stirred feelings with a younger person's forwardness, and they enjoyed a youthful, drama-like date at the roller rink.
Meanwhile, singer Bae Ki-sung revealed that he has been at risk of losing his hearing due to sudden hearing loss that began in January, shocking viewers. If symptoms persist for more than six months, he could be classified as hearing impaired and might consider a hearing aid or cochlear implant surgery. His wife, Lee Eun-bi, provided all kinds of health foods said to be good for his body and helped with exercise for her husband. Lee Eun-bi, who devotedly cared for her husband using every method from traditional Korean medicine to Western medicine, unhesitatingly filled her shopping basket with restorative foods such as dried bullfrog, dried centipede, and live loach. She also joked, "If he eats this, his ears will heal and he'll have children too. Should I give the prenatal name 'Bullfrog'?"
Lee Eun-bi prepared a restorative meal including "bullfrog boiled meat" and "whole loach soup." Bae Ki-sung said, "When the hearing loss came, I took the message 'rest a bit' as a good thing," and he expressed admiration with a positive attitude, saying he would accept the signal to rest since he had no gap in his career. At the same time, he frankly opened up, saying, "I thought a singer's life ended if the vocal cords were bad, but that's not true. What's more important than the vocal cords is the ears," and, "There is no promise of recovery, so I only miss beautiful sounds. Now I don't even remember what it's like to hear from both sides." In response, Lee Eun-bi revealed an anecdote that she wanted to give her own ear to her husband, adding to the poignancy. Finally, regarding Lee Eun-bi's devotion to caring for her husband with the 'ear candle' therapy, Choi Seong Kook said, "Even heaven would be moved," expressing his emotion.
