'City Fishermen' Blamed as Comedian Lee Kyung-kyu Diagnosed with Cataracts

Veteran comedian Lee Kyung-kyu, 65, has been diagnosed with cataracts, a condition that has deeply shocked him. The beloved entertainer shared his diagnosis in a recent video uploaded to his YouTube channel, 'God Kyung-kyu,' titled "Lee Kyung-kyu's Shocking Real Eye Condition Confirmed During Filming."

Lee revealed that he sought an ophthalmologist's examination due to noticeable vision decline, a common concern with aging. "As I get older, I can't see well," he explained during his visit to the eye clinic. "So I need to get my eyes checked. Right now, I'm looking for something good..."

In the video, Lee expressed his dismay, suggesting that his demanding work schedule, particularly his involvement in the popular fishing reality show 'City Fishermen,' may have contributed to his deteriorating eyesight. He indicated his intention to take action regarding the situation, stating his plan to "sue" over the damage to his eyes, though the specifics of this legal pursuit remain unclear.

The diagnosis comes as a significant concern for Lee, who has been a prominent figure in the South Korean entertainment industry for decades. His candid sharing of this health issue has resonated with fans, many of whom have expressed their support and concern.
