Lee Seong-hoon, who gained recognition through "Single's Inferno 5", appears on MBC’s "Omniscient Interfering View" and speaks directly about various rumors surrounding him. In particular, attention is focused on his candid explanation regarding the widely circulated online claim that he is the grandson of a former South Korean president.
Episode 388 of MBC’s "Omniscient Interfering View", airing March 7, reveals the daily life of Lee Seong-hoon, a quantitative trader working in New York’s financial district. He visits a hold’em poker pub, showing a different side of himself. Because poker relies heavily on probability and psychological strategy, it is often compared with quantitative trading, and practicing poker is said to be relatively common among professionals in the financial industry.
As soon as Lee sits at the table, he quickly takes control of the flow of the game with a calm expression and composed judgment. Maintaining an unreadable poker face and steady demeanor, he continues winning consecutive rounds, drawing admiration from the cast. Scenes highlighting the analytical ability and focus expected from a "financial brainiac" raise curiosity about his strategy.
The episode also features a reunion with fellow "Single's Inferno 5" cast members. Woo Seong-min, Kim Min-ji, Kim Go-eun, and Park Hee-seon gather together to share updates after filming, creating a friendly atmosphere. Naturally, various rumors surrounding Lee become a topic of conversation, and the cast members ask direct questions about stories that spread online.
In particular, Lee personally addresses the rumor claiming he is the grandson of a former president. Without appearing flustered, he explains the origin of the speculation and openly discusses details related to his family background that had sparked curiosity.
Another topic of interest is a dating rumor. Attention is focused on how Lee will respond to reports circulating in online communities that he was spotted on a date with a woman with long hair. He is also expected to answer questions about his current relationship with Mina-sue Choi, who became his final couple on the program.
Meanwhile, the broadcast also shows Jun Hyun-moo visiting the home of former professional baseball player Hwang Jae-gyun. The two immediately exchange playful teasing, creating a lively atmosphere. Jun jokingly questions Hwang about his dating life and even comments on his hairline, making light-hearted remarks about possible hair loss.
Another humorous moment arises when Jun subtly attempts to bargain for Hwang’s expensive watch. When the conversation turns to its market value, Hwang hurriedly hides the watch, reportedly sending the set into laughter.
Lee Seong-hoon’s explanation of the rumors, the reunion of the "Single's Inferno 5" cast, and the playful chemistry between Jun Hyun-moo and Hwang Jae-gyun can be seen on MBC’s "Omniscient Interfering View", airing March 7.
