[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Park Hee-eun] Actor Lee Si-eon revealed a story about almost selling his housing subscription right due to having less than 10 million won in his bank account after winning the housing subscription lottery.

On the 20th episode of MBC's 'I Live Alone,' Lee Si-eon met his close friend, actor Lee Dong-jin, who got married to his wife Kim Ji-yeon and moved out of Sangdo-dong.

Lee Si-eon expressed his wish for Lee Dong-jin to return to Sangdo-dong. However, his friend Lee Dong-jin said, "I can't go to your place because I'm jealous," and revealed the story behind Lee Si-eon's housing subscription.

Lee Si-eon had applied for the housing subscription on Lee Dong-jin's recommendation and won on his first try, while Lee Dong-jin himself had never won.

Lee Dong-jin said, "I don't understand why Lee Si-eon was applying for the housing subscription the day before the application deadline," and added, "I tried to stop him because he said he wanted to use it even though he had no money."

Moreover, Lee Si-eon confessed that after winning on his first attempt, he was honestly tempted by a real estate agent's offer to pay 20 million won if he sold the subscription right.

He explained that at that time, he not only lacked the down payment but also had less than 10 million won in his bank account. Thanks to his friend Lee Dong-jin's strong advice, he ended up acquiring his current house in Sangdo-dong.

The story about their long-lasting friendship and the housing subscription made everyone in the studio envious.

Meanwhile, MBC's 'I Live Alone' airs every Friday around 11 PM.
