Lee Yong-dae Opens Up About Remarriage​ on ‘My Little Old Boy’

Former national badminton team player⁢ Lee Yong-dae has revealed his thoughts on remarriage. In the preview⁢ for next week’s episode of SBS’s⁣ ‘My Little Old Boy’ that aired on the 15th, Lee Yong-dae, who worked as a badminton‍ commentator for the‌ 2024 London Olympics, appeared.

When a student asked, “Have you ever thought about a​ second marriage?⁣ Getting married again,” Lee Yong-dae expressed his thoughts, saying, “I need to get remarried quickly or build a stable family.” He ⁢then confided, “And I‍ have a child. If I get married again, what will my daughter‌ think of the person I meet?” and his mother was surprised that ‘the person I meet’ was emphasized.

Lee Yong-dae‌ and actress⁤ Byun Soo-mi got married in 2017 after dating for six years and had a ⁢daughter the ⁢following⁣ year. The couple appeared on TV shows ​and showed their​ happy⁣ relationship, but they separated and divorced after about a year of marriage.

At ‌the‍ time, ⁤Lee Yong-dae stated his position, “I think⁢ it’s due to discord and personality differences that‍ divorced couples usually experience.” ‍However, ⁢BJ Han Mi-mo⁢ later‍ filed a ​complaint​ against Byun Soo-mi on ‍charges ‍of arranging prostitution and‍ habitual gambling, drawing attention once again.

BJ Han Mi-mo claimed that Byun Soo-mi, with whom she was close, forced ‍her into⁣ prostitution with entertainment CEO A and helped him habitually gamble in Manila, Philippines ‌by coercing him. In response,‍ Byun Soo-mi denied the claims, saying “BJ Han Mi-mo’s claim of arranging prostitution ⁤is not true at all and is like ​a story.”
