On TV CHOSUN's 'Dad and Me Season 3', 'Miss Trot 4' winner Lee Sona shares the extraordinary support from her actor husband, Kang Sang-jun.

Airing on the 1st, TV CHOSUN's 'Dad and Me Season 3' will feature the first-ever variety show appearance of 'Miss Trot 4' winners Lee Sona, Heo Chan-mi, and Hong Sung-yoon, who will reveal behind-the-scenes stories from the competition. Lee Sona, who won the grand prize in 'Miss Trot 4', received a prize of 300 million won and plans to gift her husband a wristwatch he has always wanted, showcasing her affection for him. As Lee Sona shared her family's reactions post-competition, Jeon Hyun-moo expressed curiosity about her husband Kang Sang-jun's reaction, noting, "Your husband is very handsome."

Lee Sona humorously admitted, "I won the grand prize, but my husband became more of a hot topic," to which Han Hye-jin responded, "That's a win-win situation," bringing laughter. Lee Sona revealed, "I never imagined that my success would also bring recognition to my husband. Since I was relatively unknown, my husband supported us through his various projects." She added, "Now that I'm successful, people refer to him as 'Lee Sona's husband Kang Sang-jun', which he finds amusing." Kang Sang-jun, known as 'Lee Sona's husband', has appeared in notable dramas such as 'Chaebol X Detective', 'Doctor Slump', and 'Esquire: Lawyers Who Dream of Being Lawyers'. He was also a musical actor, having performed in numerous plays and musicals.

Jeon Hyun-moo inquired, "What do you mean your husband helped with the final stage?" Lee Sona explained, "Since my husband was a musical actor, he excels at conveying emotions through song. His one-point coaching helped me enhance my emotional expression, which was crucial for my winning performance." The detailed reaction of Lee Sona's husband Kang Sang-jun, who was caught on camera with a surprised expression when she won 'Miss Trot 4', can be seen on 'Dad and Me'. The show will also feature Lee Sona's touching life story, including her challenging family circumstances, her mother's battle with Parkinson's, and her long caregiving journey.

The untold family stories of 'Miss Trot 4' winners Lee Sona, Heo Chan-mi, and Hong Sung-yoon, along with a special stage performance created exclusively for 'Dad and Me', can be seen on TV CHOSUN at 10 PM on the 1st.
