The final episode of '30 Minutes with My Favorite', exclusively pre-released on Wavve on the 28th, features Lee Dae-ho. Upon meeting Lee, host Shin Kyu-jin immediately confesses, "I like you, brother," and cheekily asks, "Can we have one more minute today?"
When asked by a devoted fan about his happiness post-retirement, Lee responds, "The video of my retirement ceremony is my tear button, and it's already been three years since I retired," adding, "I'm very happy now, free from performance stress." He further shares, "I have no desire to stand at the plate again because I played baseball without regrets."
Despite this, a fan who misses Lee on the field asks, "If you had to play baseball again in another life?" Lee firmly replies, "I would never do anything related to baseball," and humorously adds, "I'd want to be born as a rich man's son and live comfortably without doing anything." After a moment of thought, he adds, "But if I had to be a baseball player again, I'd want to be Shohei Ohtani. If I'm going to do it, I might as well be the best."
On this day, Lee also takes on a batting performance at the request of a fan, hitting 10 balls. The atmosphere heats up as the legendary hitter steps up, confidently stating, "If the pitching machine throws, I can hit all 100 balls." However, with the 30 minutes quickly passing, Lee finds himself at the plate without time to warm up, showing a hint of surprise.
The final episode featuring Lee Dae-ho will be released on the 29th at 5 PM.
