Lee Dong-gook's children draw attention with variety show appearances and life in the United States

The five children of former soccer player Lee Dong-gook are drawing interest with their various recent activities. While the eldest twins, Jae-si and Jae-a, have become a hot topic through their appearances on a dating variety show, the second twins, Seol-a and Soo-a, are adjusting to life at a middle school in the United States. Interest in the family has risen again as members are spread across South Korea and the United States.

On the 13th, Lee Dong-gook's wife, Lee Soo-jin, shared several photos on her social media with the caption, "Seol-a and Soo-a's adaptation to American middle school." She introduced her daughters' special school activities, noting, "A 4-day, 3-night trip to Santa Catalina Island away from school. A digital detox without cell phones!"

She further explained that they "woke up early in the morning to go hiking and swimming, and spent exciting time with friends." The description highlighted a special experience of spending time with friends in nature without smartphones, away from daily life. Through this unique program at an American school, Seol-a and Soo-a appear to be gradually becoming accustomed to their new environment.

Lee Soo-jin added the hashtag "#missyou," stating, "They are building memories on a beautiful island and are gradually adapting to school life in the United States." The released photos capture Seol-a and Soo-a spending time with friends on Santa Catalina Island in California, United States. Along with the images of the daughters enjoying school life, the longing of a mother living far away was also conveyed.

Previously, Lee Soo-jin drew attention by sharing updates on her daughter who entered a middle school in the United States via social media last month. At that time, she announced the new beginning of her third daughter, Seol-a, saying, "A daughter on the verge of puberty who suddenly enrolled in middle school because she said she likes the United States." Her words reflected a mother's heart, feeling surprised by her daughter's sudden decision to choose life at an American middle school while also supporting her.

In particular, Lee Soo-jin drew laughter by adding, "Meanwhile, what should I do now? Our family is scattered everywhere. Oh well, whatever happens, happens." She humorously expressed the reality that it has become difficult for the family to gather in one place as the children begin new lives in their respective environments.

Lee Dong-gook married Lee Soo-jin in 2005, and they have five children: twin daughters Jae-si and Jae-a, twin daughters Seol-a and Soo-a, and the youngest son, Si-an. The family received great love in the past by revealing their daily lives on the KBS 2TV variety program 'The Return of Superman.' To viewers who have watched them grow since childhood, these changes feel even more special.

Recently, the eldest twins, Jae-si and Jae-a, garnered attention by appearing on the variety program 'When Our Kids Fall in Love,' co-produced by tvN STORY and Tcast E Channel. On the first day of the program, an unexpected 'catfish' appeared and surprised the cast, who was revealed to be Lee Dong-gook's daughter and Jae-a's twin sister, Jae-si. Following the eldest twins' appearance together on a dating variety show, the diverse updates of Lee Dong-gook's family continue to draw attention as the second twins begin their new school life in the United States.
