Lee Sang-soon Opens Up About Life in Jeju and Future Plans in Seoul

Lee Sang-soon, husband of singer Lee Hyori, candidly shared his thoughts on living in Jeju.

On the 24th, the YouTube channel 'Stayfolio' released a video titled 'Should Have Gone When I Could...'.

In the video, Lee Sang-soon and broadcaster Kim Na-young discussed travel and living arrangements.

Kim Na-young expressed her admiration, saying, "I've always been curious and wanted to meet you." Lee Sang-soon responded warmly, "I've watched you a lot on YouTube. You always appear when my wife and I need information," continuing the conversation naturally.

During their discussion about Jeju, Kim Na-young revealed, "I love Jeju so much that I considered living there. But people who have lived there told me it's too hard to go back and forth."

Lee Sang-soon empathized, saying, "If your work is on the mainland, especially in Seoul, it's not easy. We initially thought, 'Let's not work as much,' but that ended up being more exhausting." He added, "We tried to reduce work, but it felt more tiring."

Having lived in Jeju for 11 years, Lee Sang-soon emphasized, "The sense of stability you get from nature is significant. You have to weigh both the pros and cons."

In a conversation about fashion style, Lee Sang-soon humorously mentioned his wife, Lee Hyori. When Kim Na-young asked, "Aren't you good at dressing?" Lee Sang-soon replied, "No, I just wear what my wife tells me to. I even got help from her stylist today," expressing his affection.

Meanwhile, after marrying singer Lee Hyori in 2013 and living in Jeju for 11 years, Lee Sang-soon moved to Pyeongchang-dong, Seoul, in 2024. Lee Hyori has been running a yoga studio in Yeonhui-dong, Seodaemun-gu since last September, and Lee Sang-soon, currently a radio DJ, revealed, "I'm considering running a café in Seoul, following the one in Jeju," drawing attention.
