On SBS Plus's 'Lee Ho-sun's Cider,' Lee Ho-sun delivers an unexpected sharp remark to a woman in her 60s who has gained attention for her youthful appearance, while also deeply empathizing with Kim Ji-min regarding the story of a voice phishing fraud victim's family.
'Lee Ho-sun's Cider,' which airs on the 18th at 10 a.m., will be hosted with the theme of 'Endless Suspicion, Distrust Hell.' A strikingly beautiful woman in her 60s whose actual age is hard to believe will appear in the studio that day and confess about her married life with a man 17 years her junior. The guest shares matter-of-factly about how she "still receives advances from men in their 30s and 40s" and recently exchanged DMs with a 31-year-old Japanese man through SNS. However, as Lee Ho-sun listens quietly, his expression hardens and he firmly warns, "Do you know what you're saying right now?" and "Stop," creating tension in the studio.
Additionally, the broadcast features the story of a family suffering from severe anxiety and suspicion following voice phishing fraud victimization. Upon hearing the story, both Lee Ho-sun and Kim Ji-min sigh deeply, saying "That's our mom's story." Lee Ho-sun reveals his bittersweet feelings, saying, "There are really many elderly people around us who have become victims but can't speak about it," and "There's nothing we can do against intentional fraud," offering realistic advice and warm comfort.
The show also features an unusual talk about the rapidly increasing AI counseling. Lee Ho-sun lightheartedly shares his concern, saying, "More people are confiding their worries to AI and becoming dependent on it, putting the industry in a precarious situation," while also offering keen insight as a professional counselor, stating, "While the key to AI counseling is high empathy, empathy alone is not the answer in counseling."
SBS Plus's 'Lee Ho-sun's Cider,' which explores diverse real-life concerns ranging from how mutual suspicion affects relationships to the limitations of AI counseling, airs every Saturday at 10 a.m.
