Lee Seo-jin smoothly suggests Gangneung travel course—Kim Kwang-kyu: "A place he went with his ex-girlfriend"
During the SBS variety show 'My Secretary', Kim Kwang-kyu teased Lee Seo-jin by claiming his detailed Gangneung travel itinerary was a route he used to visit with a former lover.
As actor Lee Seo-jin appeared to know the Gangneung travel course by heart, Kim Kwang-kyu dropped a meaningful revelation. When a suggestion was made to have tea at a Gyeongpodae hotel and eat sashimi at a regular raw fish restaurant, Kim Kwang-kyu remarked that it was a nostalgic course Lee Seo-jin had shared with a past lover. Lee Seo-jin immediately drew a line, but as Kim Kwang-kyu countered with, "I know who it is, but I can't say," a strange tension and laughter spread between the two.
In the SBS variety program 'My Secretary' broadcast on the 9th, Lee Seo-jin and Kim Kwang-kyu were shown acting as one-day managers for Seo Jang-hoon, a friend of 30 years to Lee Seo-jin. The two headed to Gangneung for Seo Jang-hoon, who appeared as their new 'My Star'. In addition to helping with the filming of Seo Jang-hoon's 'The Millionaire Next Door', they decided to enjoy a short trip in Gangneung after the recording ended.
After finishing the filming, Seo Jang-hoon requested a reservation for a course, saying he wanted to do a mini-tour of Gangneung. Consequently, Lee Seo-jin unhesitatingly proposed a plan to have tea at a Gyeongpodae hotel and then move to a raw fish restaurant he frequently visits to eat sashimi. As he explained the course naturally, like someone who had visited many times, Kim Kwang-kyu, who was traveling with them, showed an interesting reaction.
Regarding Lee Seo-jin's travel plan, Kim Kwang-kyu told the production team, "It's a nostalgic course Lee Seo-jin went to with his former lover. It came out so smoothly." It was a remark that stimulated curiosity as to whether he was simply recommending famous spots in Gangneung or recalling places where he spent special time with someone in the past. In particular, as the specific schedule of having tea at a hotel and dining at a regular raw fish restaurant flowed naturally, attention focused on Kim Kwang-kyu's speculation.
Lee Seo-jin, appearing flustered, dismissed Kim Kwang-kyu's words, saying, "What does that hyung know?" Although it was a playful rebuttal typical between close friends, Kim Kwang-kyu did not back down. He joked, "I know who it is, but I can't say," leaving room for further revelation. He did not actually disclose any specific names or stories, which only further fueled the viewers' curiosity.
The conversation between the two provided laughter thanks to the unrestrained wit stemming from their long friendship. When Lee Seo-jin casually suggested a travel course, Kim Kwang-kyu playfully pushed him, asking if there wasn't a hidden past within it. As the back-and-forth continued—with Lee Seo-jin denying it and Kim Kwang-kyu adding meaningful remarks—the Gangneung travel plan unexpectedly turned into speculation about past romance.
However, what was actually confirmed on the broadcast was the fact that Lee Seo-jin suggested a specific travel course in Gangneung and that Kim Kwang-kyu made a joke by linking it to memories with a former lover. It was not revealed whether the places mentioned by the two were actually places he had been with someone. Kim Kwang-kyu's statement that he could not say the name only served to increase curiosity. Nevertheless, the meaningful remark that only a long-time friend could throw added fun to the broadcast by stimulating curiosity surrounding Lee Seo-jin's private life.
