Lee Kwan-hee will appear on KBS 2TV‘s ‘New Release Convenience Store Restaurant’.

On the ‘New Release Convenience Store Restaurant’ (abbreviated as ‘Convenience Store Restaurant’) to be aired on the 18th, Lee Kwan-hee, an active basketball player for Wonju DB Promy and who appeared on Netflix’s ‘Solo Hell 3’ and was crowned the hottest guy, will appear as a special MC.

According to the production team, in a recent ‘Convenience Store Restaurant’ studio recording, MC Boom Manager introduced Lee Kwan-hee as “a hot guy, a competitor who is even hotter on the court.” Here, Lee Kwan-hee made everyone laugh with his cute self-introduction, saying, “He looks old, but he‘s actually funnier than you think.” Upon Lee Kwan-hee’s introduction, Kim Jae-joong showed interest by saying, “His dimples are pretty,” Jang Min-ho said, “He feels like Beenzino,” and MC Boom said, “He also feels like Park Bo-gum.”

At this time, another special MC, Lee Hyun-yi, carefully asked, “Are you single now?” With everyone‘s attention focused on him, Lee Kwan-hee made an unexpected bombshell statement, “I came to make a girlfriend today,” heating up the ‘Convenience Store Restaurant’’ studio. Here, Jang Min-ho said, “This is no joke,” and expressed his admiration for Lee Kwan-hee’s straightforward charm.

Lee Kwan-hee then looked at Vitamin MC Hyo-jung, who was sitting far away, and said, “Can‘t (the others) switch seats?” with his bold and charming comment, making everyone laugh once again. He also said, “I know there’s a 6 year age gap (with Hyo-jung),” appealing that he already knew about Hyo-jung. In an instant, a pink atmosphere surrounded him, and Hyo-jung also burst into laughter, saying, “Oh my! What‘s going on?”


What will be the ending to Lee Kwan-hee and Hyo-jung’s pink atmosphere? In addition, Lee Kwan-hee is said to have perfectly played his part as a special MC, showing off his witty entertainment sense as well as being the mood maker, raising curiosity and anticipation.

The broadcast will find viewers after the 4th game of the 2024 KBO League postseason playoffs. If the game is canceled due to rain, it will be broadcast normally at 8:30 p.m.
