On the premiere of Channel A's 'Heart Signal 5', which aired on the 14th at 10 PM, Lee showcased his sharp analytical skills and witty commentary, living up to his reputation as a veteran panelist. 'Heart Signal 5' is a reality dating show where celebrity panelists observe and analyze the psychology of young men and women gathered in the 'Signal House', predicting the final couples.
Returning to the panel after three years, Lee immediately demonstrated his keen intuition. Upon hearing that Tsuki would join as a new panelist, he humorously predicted, "A Japanese participant will appear," bringing laughter to the set with his quirky deduction.
Lee also announced his return as an 'over-immersed viewer', expressing excitement over potential storylines involving Yoon Jong-shin and Roy Kim. He remarked, "If that happens, I'll be thinking about it all week. I'll keep watching," adding to the anticipation of the show.
Impressed by the attractive participants of the Signal House, Lee exclaimed, "Is there a romance academy these days? Where do such people come from?" His admiration, especially for participant Kang Yoo-kyung, whom he called "the most beautiful person I've seen," was quickly followed by a correction, "except for my wife," showcasing his endearing love for her.
Additionally, Lee challenged Roy Kim's prediction of Park Woo-yeol's love line with Jung Kyu-ri, stating, "Statistically, one person always receives all the votes on the first day." As Lee predicted, Park's interest was directed towards Kang Yoo-kyung, allowing Lee to shed his previous 'poor intuition' label and emerge as a dark horse in the guessing game.
Lee Sang-min's reactions, filled with the unique excitement and joy of 'Heart Signal 5', have added to the show's appeal. With his genuine immersion and seasoned analysis, viewers are eager to see what predictions he will make this season.
'Heart Signal 5' airs every Tuesday at 10 PM on Channel A.
