Heechul's Candid Take on Divorce and Property Division Sparks Laughter on 'My Little Old Boy'

On the June 29th broadcast of SBS's 'My Little Old Boy', Heechul candidly shared his thoughts on the topic of property division in the event of a divorce. The episode, featuring a spicy discussion with divorce lawyers alongside Lee Sang-min and Lee Dong-gun, captivated viewers, securing a 2.7% viewership rating among the 20-49 demographic and ranking first in Sunday entertainment with an 11.0% household rating in the metropolitan area.

In an unexpected gathering, newlywed Lee Sang-min, who should be basking in newlywed bliss, met with Lee Dong-gun and Heechul, drawing attention. Lee Dong-gun explained, "I brought together my acquaintances and colleagues to offer advice on married life."

Entering the scene, lawyer Park Min-chul introduced himself humorously, saying, "I'm a top star divorce lawyer. I handled Lee Dong-gun's case. Lee Sang-min divorced too quickly before I established myself," eliciting laughter.

The lawyers identified 'infidelity' as the leading cause of divorce, sharing shocking examples such as people meeting through second-hand trading apps, believing they can safely have affairs with others who have much to lose. This trend is reportedly increasing among married individuals.



When the conversation turned to recognizing contributions to married life and the necessity of property division upon divorce, Heechul protested, "Why should I give away the house I worked hard to buy while doing 'My Little Old Boy' and Super Junior? I'm not getting married," prompting a wry smile from his mother in the studio.

Lee Sang-min, who has experienced divorce, commented, "You go into your first divorce not knowing much. That's why you approach remarriage cautiously." He asked which has a higher divorce rate, first marriages or remarriages, to which the lawyers responded, "People fear remarriage divorce more. Even if the partner is at fault, they often don't want to divorce and end up being swayed by the other person."

Lee Sang-min added, "Since I'm remarried, I was very careful to share a lot about myself with my wife before getting married."

Meanwhile, lawyer Park Min-chul humorously named Heechul as the client he would most want to avoid if he were to divorce, saying, "It seems like there would be about 20 characters involved." He added, "Lee Sang-min's case would be straightforward, making property division easy," causing laughter.



Comedian Kim Jun-hyun, a favorite of Jung Young-joo's father from 'Delicious Guys', met with him unexpectedly. While watching home shopping, Jung's father was thrilled to see Kim Jun-hyun arrive at his home, jumping up from the sofa in excitement.

When Kim Jun-hyun offered to cook a meal himself, Jung's father expressed his delight, saying, "It feels like I'm dining at the Blue House." He confessed his fandom, saying, "I fell for Jun-hyun after seeing him eat jjajangmyeon on variety shows," drawing laughter.

Kim Jun-hyun, who brought two iceboxes full of ingredients, skillfully prepared Thai-style pork bone stew 'Leng Sab' and salmon noodles. The studio was filled with laughter at Jung's father's intense gaze as he watched his favorite's mukbang up close.

Kim Jong-kook, known for his 'No Navi' philosophy, embarked on a trip with his close friends Heo Kyung-hwan, Jonathan, and Ma Sun-ho. Kim Jong-kook explained, "If you rely on navigation, you can't see the traffic situation. I don't like providing location information," sharing his reasons for not using navigation.

When Kim Jong-kook managed to arrive at a gamjatang restaurant three minutes earlier than the navigation suggested, his friends were amazed. The 'Favorite Brother World Cup' began to determine who had stolen Jong-kook's heart, and Ma Sun-ho, Jong-kook's workout partner, celebrated his victory over Shorry with a deep bow.

Conversely, Jonathan, who lost to Kang Hoon, couldn't hide his disappointment, adding to the humor.

The episode concluded with a surprising scene of Lee Sang-min and his wife embarking on IVF treatment, leaving everyone astonished. 'My Little Old Boy' airs every Sunday at 9 PM.
