Lee Seung Gi Makes Surprise Reveal of No. 1 Wedding Gift Contributor… An Actress, Not Kang Ho Dong: ‘An Unimaginable Amount’

Couple Lee Seung Gi and Lee Da In.

Lee Seung Gi, who will appear on the second episode of MBN’s ‘Kim Ju-ha’s Day and Night’ airing on the 29th, is returning to the talk show stage after a long time. This appearance, his first on MBN since his debut and his return to a talk show in about 17 years, is set to be an occasion where he will generously share his hidden entertainment sense and personal stories.

Lee Seung Gi cited the MC combination of Kim Ju-ha, Moon Se-yoon, and Jo Jjaez as one of the reasons he decided to appear on the show. Mentioning the three names, he instantly changed the atmosphere on set by saying, ‘You can’t find a ‘mixed stew’ quite like this one.’ This raises curiosity about how the MCs reacted to his witty assessment.

Lee Seung Gi, now in his third year of marriage, also revealed an unexpected episode from his wedding to his wife, Lee Da In. He was surprised when actress Lee Se-young and entertainer Yang Se-hyung sent an unimaginable amount of money as a wedding gift. The message that accompanied the gift from them will be revealed during the broadcast.

The story of how he joined KBS’s ‘2 Days & 1 Night,’ a turning point in his entertainment career, will also be revealed for the first time on this broadcast. He reportedly filled the set with laughter by re-enacting the scene, saying, ‘Kang Ho Dong cast me while he was eating jeyuk deopbap (spicy pork over rice) during a break.’ Anticipation is growing for the story of that moment, which became a major turning point in his life.

After the recording, the production team stated, ‘We express our immense gratitude to Lee Seung Gi for readily agreeing to appear.’ They added, ‘Lee Seung Gi even came up with the idea for the show’s ending pose, which Kim Ju-ha, Moon Se-yoon, and Jo Jjaez had been struggling with. Please be sure to watch the broadcast to see it.’

Actor Lee Seung Gi

In April 2023, he married actress Lee Da In after two years of public dating, and they welcomed a daughter the following year. Lee Da In is also well-known as the daughter of actress Kyeon Mi-ri and the younger sister of Lee Yu-bi. The same year, upon revealing the indictment of his father-in-law on stock manipulation charges, he also declared, ‘After long consideration, my wife and I intend to cut ties with her family.’

He is currently active as the MC for the JTBC audition program ‘Sing Again 4,’ and he is also continuing his career as a singer, having released the digital single ‘Beside You’ on the 18th.
