[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Jeong-ho] Actor Lee Jung-jin revealed his six-year single life living alone.

On the afternoon of the 28th, actor Lee Jung-jin appeared as a special MC on SBS's 'My Ugly Duckling' (hereafter 'Miwoo-sae').

On this day, the 'Movenjers' showed great interest in Lee Jung-jin's appearance. Lee Jung-jin revealed that he recently lost weight to create a sharp image while playing a villain in the drama 'The King'.

MC Shin Dong-yup, who saw this, also praised Lee Jung-jin, saying, "He has a good voice and handsome facial features."

Additionally, Shin Dong-yup said, "He is not originally that kind of person, but seeing him do well as a villain, I thought he must fundamentally have a wicked side to his nature to pull that off," which caused laughter. Lee Jung-jin, sitting next to him, shared his thoughts on playing a villain, saying, "I think there is a thrill in the process of creating the character."

Furthermore, Lee Jung-jin revealed that he has been living alone for six years. He said, "My mother doesn't come to our house. At first, she was worried about my meals, but after seeing me take good care of myself, she stopped coming. Since then, I visit her occasionally."

Later, Shin Dong-yup asked Lee Jung-jin, "If there is someone you like, do you actively approach them?" Lee Jung-jin responded ambiguously, "These days, I can't do this or that," arousing curiosity.

Then Shin Dong-yup said, "Actually, there might be someone right now. If you talk about this, you might feel sorry for that person." Lee Jung-jin replied, "There is nothing to be sorry about," while sipping water. The Movenjers suspected that drinking water was a signal to a lover, causing laughter.

Seo Jang-hoon asked, "Do you ever feel like you are your own ugly duckling?" and Lee Jung-jin confessed, "Every day."

In response, Shin Dong-yup asked, "Seo Jang-hoon is close to Lee Jung-jin. Why do you think Lee Jung-jin still struggles with dating?"

Seo Jang-hoon explained, "I think handsome men have such thoughts. They are popular and might think, 'Do I really have to get married?' As they get older, when that stops suddenly, don't they feel lonely? There is hardly any time to be lonely."

Meanwhile, 'My Ugly Duckling' airs every Sunday at 9:05 PM.
