Lee Chan-won advised 'Turn off the TV'
Why did Lee Chan-won recommend stopping watching TV?

In KBS 2TV's national wealth-making project 'High-End Water Strider', which airs on the evening of the 11th, a client who falls into the trap of Ditto consumption appears, buying from head to toe the products worn and advertised by stars.

On this day's broadcast, the consumption log of a 3-year office worker who searches for and purchases clothes and cosmetics advertised by various stars, idols, and influencers such as Park Min-young, Ive, New Jeans, and Aillet will be revealed.

While watching the video, Yang Se-hyung recalled his childhood, when he wore HOT's candy hat on a picnic day. Jo Hyun-ah recalled popular items from those days, saying, “I felt like Im Soo-jung, too,” when she wore Ugg boots and knits. Lee Chan-won, who is appearing on ‘Pyeon Restaurant’, also confessed, “I want to follow the kitchen utensils used by other cast members and buy them.”

However, the client's problem is that he is 'addicted' to the consumption of Ditto, which means 'me too', which he buys without realizing it. Lee Chan-won, who was looking at the client with concern, suggested a drastic prescription: “I need to stop watching TV first.”

Money trainer Kim Kyeong-pil pointed out 'caffeine' addiction as the cause of Ditto consumption, a major consumption trend in 2024. The Salty Avengers MC group was confused and asked, “Does caffeine have anything to do with shopping?”

After hearing the explanation about caffeine, Yang Se-chan confessed his experience, saying, “I couldn’t live without it.” Lee Chan-won and Yang Se-hyung are also said to have sympathized with him. This day's broadcast raises a lot of curiosity as to what 'caffeine' is the culprit of Ditto consumption.

'High-End Water Strider' will be broadcast on KBS 2TV at 8:55 pm on the 11th.
