Lee Ik-kyung announced that he will be moving in with his parents.

On the afternoon of the 10th, members visited Park Kwang-jae's house on the MBC variety show ‘What Do You Do When You Play?’ (directed by Kim Jin-yong, Jang Woo-sung, Jang Hyo-jong, Wang Jong-seok, written by Choi Hye-jung).

During the broadcast, Lee Ik-kyung said, “I will finish everything and move into my parents' house on May 14. I realized that I hardly meet my family even 10 times a year. I haven't even gone on a date.”

He continued, “My father is not in good health. But my mother feels very burdened. She has been living alone since her teens, and now that she is approaching her 40s, she feels uncomfortable.”

In response, Joo Woo-jae offered heartfelt advice, saying, “I was like that too. At first, it feels uncomfortable because of the distance from living apart, but eventually, it becomes comfortable as you find your own way to fit together.”

MBC’s ‘What Do You Do When You Play?’ airs every Saturday at 6:30 PM.
