Episode of SBS’ popular relationship reality series “Same Bed, Different Dreams 2: You Are My Destiny”, former judge-turned-legal commentator Lee Seong-ho made a striking confession about his wife, veteran actress Yoon Yoo-seon.
The couple, whose whirlwind romance culminated in marriage after just 98 days, appeared on Tuesday’s broadcast to share the story of how they first met through a mutual friend’s setup — a storyline that has captivated viewers with its blend of sincerity and surprise.
During the episode, Lee surprised the audience when he admitted, “She wasn’t the type of beauty I usually go for,” adding that his initial impression of Yoon’s appearance was shaped by his earlier preference for Western features cultivated in his younger years. The remark drew laughter and curiosity from the studio audience and co-hosts alike.
However, Lee was quick to clarify that physical attraction was never the core of his interest. “What drew me to her was something deeper than looks — it was her sincerity and warmth,” he explained. His honest revelation offered a refreshing contrast to the often polished and scripted portrayals of celebrity relationships seen on television.
