Actor Lee Sangmi's Father's Blind Date

On the TV Chosun entertainment program 'Joseon's Lover', comedian Oh Ji-heon's father went on his first blind date for a late-life remarriage. The identity of his blind date, actress Lee Sang-mi, captured viewers' attention.

The broadcast revealed Oh Ji-heon's father's 'search for a new mother project', as he is active as a senior model. The blind date was arranged by fellow comedian Oh Jeong-tae. Oh Ji-heon introduced his father as a top history instructor who was so popular he used five classrooms back in the days before online lectures, and a fashionista who was famous among high school girls. Oh Ji-heon's father, who is 72 years old, surprised the cast with his stylish appearance, with the cast members exclaiming, "We thought you were younger."

Before the blind date, Oh Jeong-tae revealed a photo of the blind date, saying, "I've found someone incredible." When a swimsuit photo from her younger days was shown, Oh Ji-heon joked, "She's bold. She's too good for my dad," eliciting laughter.

The blind date was actress Lee Sang-mi, known as 'Gae-ttong's Mom'. Lee Sang-mi, who has appeared in productions with actors such as Choi Bool-am, Kim Yong-gun, and the late Kim Soo-mi, boasted a youthful beauty that defied her 64 years. Lee Sang-mi shared, "I've been attending events since last year, and doing volunteer work at the beginning of the year," conveying positive energy by saying, "I prefer living in harmony with those around me rather than being alone."

During their first meeting, Oh Ji-heon's father appeared flustered and nervous by Lee Sang-mi's youthful looks, but soon made them laugh by appealing, "If you look at me, I'm quite good." He also expressed his interest by ordering a cappuccino, which is what one orders for someone they like, adding to the romantic tension.
