Actor Lee Seo-jin showcased his unique love for merchandise.
On the 24th, a press conference for Netflix's variety show 'Lee Seo-jin's Dollar Dollar' was held at CGV Yongsan I'Park Mall in Yongsan-gu, Seoul. The event was attended by actor Lee Seo-jin, PD Na Young-seok, and PD Kim Ye-seul.
'Lee Seo-jin's Dollar Dollar' is an unscripted variety show featuring Lee Seo-jin and PD Na Young-seok's spontaneous adventures in the U.S. Lee Seo-jin, who considers Texas his second home, embarks on a humorous journey with Na Young-seok and his crew.
During the event, Lee Seo-jin stated, "I believe it's polite to wear the team's clothes when attending a sports game," adding, "When I go to an amusement park, I try to wear the park's merchandise. It's a matter of etiquette."
However, his long-time friend of 15 years, PD Na Young-seok, reminisced about the trip, saying, "We visited many stadiums, but there were no games, just empty stadiums."
He continued, "We would go to the stadium and then head to the merchandise shop. He would pick out items, but he never actually bought anything. We spent $200-$300 each, but he said he already bought them a long time ago," causing laughter. He added, "It felt like a shopping-included travel package. It was a unique experience."
Finally, PD Na Young-seok revealed, "I don't know how many clothes we bought in the U.S. Our wardrobe expanded significantly," adding, "(Lee Seo-jin) kept encouraging us to buy more, almost like gaslighting. The clothes he wore to the press conference were also purchased in Texas."
Netflix's 'Lee Seo-jin's Dollar Dollar' will be available exclusively on Netflix starting at 5 PM on the 24th.
