Lee Soo Geun reveals luxury billiard-themed office in Cheongdam-dong

Comedian Lee Soo Geun showcased his deep passion for billiards by revealing a private office he established in Cheongdam-dong, Kangnam, Seoul. The space, which functions almost like a private billiard hall, features a billiard table at its center and a collection of high-end cues worth millions of won.

On the 23rd, Lee revealed his Cheongdam-dong office alongside singer Eun Ji-won during the SBS variety program 'My Little Old Boy'.

The location was originally a billiard hall that had been in operation for over 20 years. After Lee personally acquired the property, he completely renovated the interior to transform it into an office. It serves as a hub for filming YouTube content and conducting business, while also acting as a private sanctuary where he can indulge in his lifelong hobby of billiards.

When Eun Ji-won, after touring the office, asked, "Did you get a space like this just as an excuse for doing YouTube?" Lee replied, "To get this as an excuse, this is Cheongdam-dong in Kangnam, and the monthly rent is no joke. It's in my name." He emphasized that the space is not merely a filming studio, but a significant personal investment.

The interior is so heavily equipped with billiard facilities that the term 'office' seems almost misplaced. A billiard table sits in the center, while various cues collected by Lee are displayed along the walls. Lee explained that he also films YouTube content centered around billiards at this location.

The price of the cues, in particular, drew significant attention. As Lee introduced them one by one, he surprised viewers by revealing, "This one is 5 million won, this one is 3 million won, and this one is 2.5 million won." Since the price of cues can vary wildly based on a player's style and preference, the collection highlights Lee's intense interest and dedication to the game.

He also unveiled a personal cue engraved with his name. Demonstrating the pride of a long-time enthusiast, Lee explained, "It is a cue worth about 10 million won."\p>

Lee's billiard skills were also a focal point of the broadcast. When Eun Ji-won mentioned Shin Dong-yup, who is famous in the entertainment industry for his billiard skills, Lee compared his own talent to a soccer legend, saying, "In the celebrity billiard world, I am Son Heung-min, and Shin Dong-yup is Cha Bum-kun." He then added, "He was great in the past, but now he is retired," drawing laughter with his characteristic wit.

The broadcast featured an actual billiard match between Lee and Shin Dong-yup. As both are known to be long-time enthusiasts, the match went beyond a simple variety show game, becoming a competitive showdown of pride that once again highlighted Lee's skill.

Lee has expressed a special affection for billiards on various programs in the past. This Cheongdam-dong office is more than just a celebrity's hobby space; it is a unique environment where Lee's long-term personal passion and professional broadcasting activities converge.

By acquiring a former billiard hall and restructuring it into a professional workspace, Lee demonstrated his practical approach to blurring the lines between a 'hobby space' and a 'content production studio.'
