As Lee Eui-jung walked slowly into the studio, Hong Kyung-in joked, “Why do you walk so primly?” as reported by OSEN, or “Why do you walk so modestly?” according to Biz.Chosun. Lee Eui-jung responded candidly, stating she was exhausted and sleepy.
Open Discussion on Aging, Menopause, and Health
When Lee Sun-jung asked if she was experiencing menopause, Lee Eui-jung did not deny it. According to both outlets, she wittily replied, “That’s right. My age is now the 5th line,” or “line 5,” before adding that she also struggles with frozen shoulder, eliciting laughter from the group.
Born in 1975, Lee Eui-jung was diagnosed with a brain tumor in 2006 and underwent rigorous, long-term treatment. Both OSEN and Biz.Chosun report that she received a complete remission diagnosis after approximately 15 years of treatment.
Photo Studio Memories and Nostalgia
The four actors visited a photo studio filled with past memories to take a group photo together for the first time in 30 years, according to the source reports. Examining the completed picture, Lee Eui-jung joked that her face needed substantial slimming and noted that her eyesight had aged due to presbyopia, preventing her from seeing clearly without a close look.
