Girls' Generation's Kwon Yu-ri doubts comedian Lee Seon-min's single status

Comedian Lee Seon-min captured the attention of the 'Home Alone' Rainbow members by revealing his unexpected domestic life—ranging from cooking home-cooked meals and doing dishes to thrifty shopping and seafood cooking—contrasting sharply with his 'married' visuals and his actual single status.

In the Munhwa Broadcasting Corporation entertainment program 'Home Alone' broadcast on the night of the 19th, Lee Seon-min's daily life was revealed. The most eye-catching moment in this episode was the cast's whimsical questioning regarding his appearance and actual marital status.

Watching Lee Seon-min, born in 1988, skillfully prepare a meal at home and immediately finish the dishes, Girls' Generation's Kwon Yu-ri jokingly asked, "Are you completely single?" Her joke implied that his appearance and lifestyle habits made him feel like someone who had been married for a long time.

Lee Seon-min responded firmly, "I am completely single," before adding, "Should I show you my Government24 [profile]?" to draw laughter. Jeon Hyeonmu joined in, saying, "Show us your ID," turning the studio into a sea of laughter for a while. The exaggerated skit, which even mentioned Government24 and resident registration cards to verify his marital status, naturally flowed, making Lee Seon-min's 'married visuals' another highlight of the broadcast.

His true charm became even more prominent in the subsequent scenes of his daily life. Lee Seon-min tended to prepare his own meals at home. He prepared a meal using relatively simple ingredients like egg rice, seaweed, and green chili peppers, quickly finishing the entire bowl.

After eating, he immediately started washing the dishes without delay. The way he naturally connected eating and cleaning as a single life routine was far from a glamorous single life. Instead, the screen captured a modest and disciplined daily routine of preparing his own food and cleaning up.

His personality was equally evident in his shopping. Heading out to buy clothes for the first time in a while, Lee Seon-min checked his age with a store employee by asking, "Do I look like I'm 88?" When the employee replied that he looked younger than his actual age, he could not hide his pleased expression.

While choosing a youthful-looking hoodie, he explained, "I was born in '88. That's why I like numbers like 1988."

An even more realistic side appeared during the price-checking process. After purchasing two items at a discount, he expressed satisfaction, saying, "They were originally around 140,000 won, but I bought them in the 80,000 won range."

Rather than simply consuming famous brands or expensive products, he showed a side that meticulously considers price and practicality. Lee Seon-min, who mentioned he frequently visits SPA brands, checked the price tags first while choosing products that day. In the broadcast, this was depicted as a 'housewife-style consumption habit' familiar with managing a household, serving as another point of humor.

The atmosphere shifted when the store employee introduced a product collaborated with the FIFA World Cup 2026. Lee Seon-min reacted with surprise at the price, which reached the 100,000 won range, even before considering the design. For someone who usually seeks products at reasonable prices, the higher-than-expected cost felt burdensome.

Yu-ri remarked, "I like the Muji style," to which Lee Seon-min retorted, "Are you drawing a line between us now?" The short exchange regarding their respective fashion tastes clearly highlighted the character difference between the two.

Watching this, Code Kunst could not hold back his laughter, making a comment about "two servings of Hosik." It was a scene where the cast's individual differences in fashion and consumption were instantly transformed into variety show language.

Lee Seon-min's day did not end with meals and shopping. Being a hearty eater, he also went grocery shopping and prepared food for dinner that evening. After purchasing large shrimp and scallops and returning home, he began preparing a full dinner.

The process of placing fresh large shrimp on a frying pan spread with coarse salt and boiling scallops perfectly matched the program's basic concept of the life of a single-person household. Rather than solving his meals through dining out, he chose to select the ingredients he wanted and cook them himself.

An interesting aspect of Lee Seon-min's daily life revealed that day was how the fact that he 'lives alone' and his lifestyle of 'taking good care of himself while living alone' naturally intertwined. Following the display of stable lifestyle habits that led to doubts about his marital status, he showed a side that goes beyond just being a 'man living alone' by handling meals, dishes, shopping, and cooking by himself.

In particular, while Yu-ri's question, "Are you completely single?" was a joke based on Lee Seon-min's appearance, the reality of his lifestyle made the moment even more entertaining. Regardless of his marital status, his ability to manage his household and himself was evident throughout the broadcast.

Ultimately, Lee Seon-min's life on 'Home Alone' was closer to a modest, independent existence than a glamorous single life. His routine of cooking home meals, cleaning up immediately, shopping for practical items, and preparing dinner was not extraordinary, but it provided a sense of authentic realism.

Starting with the unexpected joke about his 'married visuals,' the episode ultimately served as a showcase of how Lee Seon-min manages his own life. More important than his marital status was his ability to independently run his daily life. Through the simple acts of eating, shopping, cleaning, and cooking, Lee Seon-min presented the most realistic portrait of living alone.
