"On the table of The Food Artist, Lee Seong-jae revealed that his handsome appearance is thanks to his father’s DNA."

On the 25th, the episode of TV CHOSUN's "On the Table of The Food Artist" (hereafter referred to as "On the Table") depicted Lee Seong-jae, the main actor of the drama "The Haunted Palace," heading to Chuncheon.

That day, Lee Seong-jae talked about his recent grants in the SBS drama "The Haunted Palace," saying, "I will appear as the shaman," and explained that he often plays characters who channel spirits.

Meanwhile, Lee Seong-jae said, "They call me the god of shaman acting, so they call me 'Shaman God'" and when Heo Young-man remarked, "That’s a bit much," Lee responded, "I think it's a very unique title." Then, Heo Young-man asked, "Do you have a girlfriend?"

When Lee Seong-jae replied, "No," Heo Young-man said, "That's why you don't have a girlfriend." An embarrassed Lee Seong-jae clarified, "I don’t mean it like that, so it's not that I really don't have a girlfriend," drawing laughter.

Heo Young-man then asked, "Did you think from the beginning that you would want to sing?" Lee Seong-jae replied, "I loved going to karaoke since I was in elementary school, skipping school to go to karaoke. I said, 'Then I'll become a singer.' When the open audition began, my father said, 'If you get eliminated when experts see you in this audition, then you should think that you have no talent in this field and consider something else.' But I was lucky and passed on my first try."

Thus, Lee Seong-jae has now become a singer with 13 years of experience in BTOB, and he is also recognized as an actor, actively working in the field.

In particular, Lee Seong-jae stated about being an actor, "Acting was actually not the direction I wanted to pursue. The idol entertainment industry holds auditions for acting, so we see everyone because we don’t know how this friend will succeed." He continued, "I got cast in a work called 'Who Are You - School 2015,' and as I started getting noticed for my acting, it seems like that's why I keep doing it."

Meanwhile, Heo Young-man asked, "Don't you need talent to sing? What are the secrets to your vocal ability and handsome appearance?" Lee Seong-jae mentioned his father as the reason for his good looks.

At this point, a picture of Lee Seong-jae's father was revealed, and Lee Seong-jae said, "My father always tells me to be thankful. 'When I was your age, I was much better looking than you. Since I gave you good genes, always live with a grateful heart,' he said. I acknowledge it. My father is very handsome."

Yet he also remarked, "But it’s really strange that I have no singing talent on either my mother’s or father’s side. I'm curious where the singer's genes came from."
