Singer Lee Chan-won plans to marry at 45, prioritizing career

South Korean singer Lee Chan-won, born in 1996, has shared his future aspirations, including a desire to marry around the age of 45. He recently joined the MBN and Channel S variety program 'Jeon Hyun-moo's Plan' as a special MC, accompanying host Jeon Hyun-moo on a trip to his hometown of Daegu.

“

Kang Ho-dong is the one who gave birth to me in the broadcasting world, and Hyun-moo hyung is the person walking the path with me now.

During a meal of spicy braised ribs, Jeon Hyun-moo questioned Lee about his expressed desire to work with veteran entertainer Kang Ho-dong. Lee explained his perspective, stating that Kang Ho-dong was instrumental in launching his career, likening him to the person who "gave birth" to his broadcasting path. In contrast, he described Jeon Hyun-moo as someone walking the path with him currently.

Jeon Hyun-moo humorously responded to this analogy, asking if he was merely someone Lee encountered by chance. Lee further elaborated on his priorities, explaining that his current success and career hold significant importance due to past financial hardships. He recalled working various part-time jobs to fund his university education before his debut, making him deeply value his current professional achievements.
