Actor Lee Min-jung shared the reasons behind starting her YouTube channel and revealed heartwarming episodes with her son Jun-ho, who is often called a 'mini Lee Byung-hun.'
On the 29th broadcast of KBS 2TV's entertainment program 'Problematic Men in the Rooftop Room Season 2,' Lee Min-jung candidly shared the behind-the-scenes of her transformation into a YouTuber.
First, he said, "As the number of drama slots has decreased and the grants period has become longer, I wanted to create a communication channel with fans after having two kids, so I started YouTube." He continued, "While dramas have scripts, for YouTube, you have to plan everything in your head. There turned out to be much more work than I expected," expressing his struggles with content creation. Hearing this, Song Eun-yi was amazed, saying, "It was impressive to see you do the opening without a script."
In response, Lee Min-jung said, "Actually, my son Jun-ho helps me with the opening lines, advising me on transitions and connections. He’s like a perfect tutor," she laughed. Indeed, videos reflecting Jun-ho’s advice recorded high view counts, and Lee Min-jung noted, "My son said, 'I’m the key to high viewership,'" bringing smiles. Regarding the wedding dress video, she coolly responded, "He said I acted too cute."
Jun-ho has recently been attracting more attention than Lee Min-jung herself. In this regard, Lee Min-jung admitted, "His appearance is undeniably a spitting image of Lee Byung-hun. When he was younger, he looked like me, but as he grows, he’s clearly resembling his dad," she confessed honestly, adding, "I felt a bit disadvantaged." She continued, "His features were round, but now they are taking on his father's raised eyes and lips," she added in surprise. When asked about his personality, she said, "He takes after me. He has a cute way of speaking and is popular among friends."
Displaying new charm as a YouTuber with her son’s sharp advice and supportive sense, Lee Min-jung's next content is eagerly anticipated.
