Comedian Lee Hong-ryeol recently shared his concerns about his two sons, who are still unmarried as they approach their 40s, drawing attention from fans and viewers.

On the 13th, a video titled 'Not a Late Baby! A Grandchild (Enjoy) is Born' was uploaded to the YouTube channel 'Lee Hong-ryeol TV.' In the video, Lee Hong-ryeol visits the home of the 'Enjoy Couple,' Son Min-soo and Im Ra-ra, for whom he officiated their wedding.

The couple, who welcomed twin siblings last October, received a visit from Lee, who wanted to gift toys for their children. While purchasing a walking assistant, Lee expressed his bittersweet feelings, saying, "I wonder when I'll ever buy gifts for my own grandchildren." He then lamented to the store owner, "I have two sons, but neither of them is married yet, and they're nearing 40." The store owner comforted him, saying, "I hope you hear good news soon."

Continuing his lament in front of the couple's twin children, Lee said, "It's been a long time since I've held a baby. My eldest son is 39, and he's still not married," expressing his dissatisfaction. Son Min-soo tried to console him, saying, "Isn't that how it is these days?" but Lee humorously retorted, "Don't console me. The saying 'everyone gets married eventually' doesn't comfort me at all. It just makes me more frustrated," bringing laughter.

Lee Hong-ryeol married a woman eight years his junior in 1989 and has two sons. In 2018, he revealed on a broadcast that he has been officiating weddings without a fee, on the condition of supporting children in Ethiopia, Africa. He has officiated weddings for 73 couples over 14 years since 2012, astonishing many.
