[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Jeong-ho] Actor Seong Yu-bin from 'My Ugly Duckling' expressed his feelings of hurt towards his older brother Lee Tae-sung.



On the afternoon of the 30th, SBS entertainment program 'My Ugly Duckling' (hereafter 'Miwoo-sae') aired a segment showing Seong Yu-bin expressing the hardships of being the second child to his older brother Lee Tae-sung.


That day, Seong Yu-bin said, "My brother was raised very dearly when he was young. Do you think I have no feelings of hurt?" and added, "Our family inevitably showed favoritism towards the eldest," sparking curiosity.


He continued, "Actually, our grandfather was very fond of only my brother. When I was young, I felt very hurt. One vivid memory is when grandfather was polishing shoes with a shoe brush. My brother and I were making noise and playing the same way, but he came running over telling us to be quiet and only hit the back of my head with the shoe brush," recalling, "My mother saw that scene and stopped him, crying, saying 'Why do you only treat the youngest like that?'"


Furthermore, Seong Yu-bin shared, "When we were in elementary school, we played baseball together. Our father asked the coach, 'Which one of the two should we have play baseball?' The coach recommended me, but my father only let my brother play," and added, "He didn't even ask me and told me to stop. But I wanted to play baseball. When my brother went to live in the dorm because of baseball, I hugged my glove and cried," continuing to express his feelings of hurt.


Lee Tae-sung, who was beside him, confessed, "Then you should have played. I really didn't want to play baseball." To this, Seong Yu-bin added, "Actually, I was really upset with my brother for that too. Seeing my brother not wanting to do the baseball I wanted to play made me angry."


Moreover, Seong Yu-bin revealed, "When I said I wanted to do music, my father opposed it. At first, I tried to pursue music on my own, but because of constant opposition, I felt like my dream was being taken away."


MC Shin Dong-yup, watching this in the studio, also talked about family nagging. Shin Dong-yup said about his wife, "She doesn't nag. I take care of things myself. I never ask or order. I just handle everything on my own."


Next to him, Seo Jang-hoon said, "I want to carry a small camera and film 24 hours a day." Immediately, Shin Dong-yup responded about his wife, "I'm so lucky she's an employee at a different broadcasting station. If she worked here, even an interview... it would be terrible. I'm really fortunate," causing laughter among the 'Movengers.'



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