Actor Lee Yi Kyung recently opened up about his massive debt, revealing that he borrowed 500 million KRW to buy a commercial property—only for its value to plummet.

On the March 15 episode of MBC’s Hangout with Yoo, the cast members took part in a temple stay experience called I Am a Temple to find a partner.

During the show, Lee Yi Kyung fully embraced the concept and introduced himself, sharing his thoughts on relationships and personal struggles.

When asked about his ideal type, he said, “Someone who takes good care of the family and understands my work.”

But comedian Heo Kyung Hwan wasn’t having it and jokingly called him out, saying, “That sounds like your dad’s ideal type—tell us yours. Don’t be so patriarchal!”

Lee Yi Kyung also talked about wanting a big family, revealing, “I want to have lots of kids with the person I love. Three is just the starting point.”

Yoo Jae Suk then asked, “What if your partner doesn’t agree?” to which Lee Yi Kyung confidently replied, “I’ll have to convince her.”

But the conversation took a serious turn when Joo Woo Jae brought up Lee Yi Kyung’s past confession about being scammed. He asked, “So, exactly how much debt do you have?”

Looking flustered, Lee Yi Kyung hesitated before admitting, “A friend recommended I buy a commercial property, so I took out a 500 million KRW loan to purchase it. But its value got cut in half.”

Despite the financial hit, the actor remained positive, saying, “I may be in debt, but I just have to keep working hard and living my life.”

Fans were shocked by his honesty, with many sending words of encouragement. Hopefully, his hard work pays off, and he bounces back soon!

BTS's V is making his fans fall even more in love with him as he shares moments from his life just 40 days before his military discharge.

On April 30, V posted several new photos on his Instagram story, giving fans a sneak peek into his daily routine.

Among the photos was a beautiful shot of cherry blossoms, accompanied by the word "cherry blossom" as he expressed his longing for spring.

He followed up with more photos, sharing how much he wanted to enjoy the season with his fans.

To make the post even more special, V added background music from BTS member J-Hope's song Sweet Dreams and Design by the American punk band Gustav.

It turns out that Gustav was grateful for V introducing their music to the world and even received fan comments saying they discovered the band through him.

In another adorable photo, V posed with CF director Ray J. Yi (Lee Jun Yeob), with flowers in his hair. The director also shared the cute photo, adding the word "flower" to express how happy he was with the moment.

But it wasn’t all about flowers and beauty—V also gave fans a peek at his workout routine. He proudly showed off his toned arm muscles in a picture, though his face appeared a little thinner.

This is likely due to his diet, as he’s been working hard to maintain his figure ahead of his discharge. Before enlisting, V weighed 62 kg, and during his service, he reached 86 kg. Now, he’s lost 10 kg and is preparing for his return to the public eye.

Interestingly, V has been working out at the same place where singer Kim Jong Kook films his popular YouTube channel Jim Jong Kook, sparking fan excitement and hopes that V might make an appearance on the show after he’s discharged.

As soon as V shared his latest update, his name—"KIM TAEHYUNG"—shot to the top of real-time trending charts worldwide. Fans from all over the globe, including in the U.S., couldn’t get enough of the updates, proving once again the massive impact V has.

He is set to be discharged from the military on June 10, and fans are eagerly awaiting his return.
