Lee Chan-won, who appeared on KBS 2TV's 'Problem Son in the Rooftop', which will be aired at 8:30 pm on Wednesday, February 15th, surprised everyone by revealing the large 'Filial Plex' gifted to his family during the holidays.
On this day, Lee Chan-won attracted attention by revealing that he prepares a big filial piety for his family and relatives every holiday. “On holidays, I send pocket money to my parents in their account, and I send pocket money envelopes to my grandmother, my younger brother, and other 2nd, 3rd, and 4th cousins. He took care of all his brothers and even his 5th cousin. Everyone could not hide their surprise as he revealed, “There were about 40 to 50 envelopes of money.” He then said, “I wrote an autograph and a letter on each pocket money envelope and sent it to them,” adding that the ‘Pocket Money Flex’ with its extraordinary scale and sincerity typical of ‘Young & Rich’ created a warm feeling.
He also conveyed the careful consideration he gave to his 6th and 7th cousins who may have been sad. He boasted of the Lee Chan-won family's extraordinary love for family, saying, "I heard that my 7th cousin's nephew was getting married, so I sent him a wreath and a congratulatory video." Next, expectations for the live broadcast were raised as to what Lee Chan-won's answer would be to the MCs who were curious about how much their family's pocket money was spent on this year's Lunar New Year.
Meanwhile, Lee Chan-won, known as a 'perfect cook', attracted attention by confessing that he not only has kimchi skills in making various types of kimchi, but that his hobby on his days off is drying vegetables. "No matter how busy I am, I rarely eat outside and cook at home," he said. “I like to invite people and eat together, so my monthly food expenses amount to about 6 million won,” he said, revealing the shocking amount of food expenses. The MCs responded, “Isn’t this a restaurant? He exclaimed with admiration, “It’s a really good restaurant for 6 million won.”
Lee Chan-won then drew attention by revealing that his parents are currently managing his income. He said, “I send all of my monthly allowance to my parents,” adding, “I’m not good at spending money on myself, but I buy things for people around me and take care of them.” “My parents are taking care of me because I like it so much,” he said, adding to the warmth by revealing the unexpected reason.
Meanwhile, MC Jeong Hyeong-don revealed that he has moved around 34 times in his mid-40s, raising curiosity about the anecdote that surprised him about his resident registration record.
