Singer Lee Sang-soon (52), who halted his radio hosting duties due to health issues, conveyed a token of appreciation to colleague Jung Jae-hyung (56), who is currently covering for him.
On the 29th, Jung Jae-hyung posted on his Instagram, "Gifts from Sang-soon and Hyo-ri! Today too, 'I am Jung Jae-hyung living a perfect day' starts soon!" along with photos.
The photos showed high-end skincare cosmetics gifted to Jung Jae-hyung by the couple Lee Hyo-ri and Lee Sang-soon. It appears that Lee Sang-soon, who is taking a break from hosting due to health concerns, expressed his gratitude to Jung Jae-hyung, who has taken on the role of special DJ.
Lee Sang-soon's health issue became known on the 26th of last month. At the time, singer Thomas Cook, a regular guest on MBC Radio's "I am Lee Sang-soon living a perfect day," hosted the show in his place.
Lee Sang-soon appeared approximately 10 minutes before the end of the broadcast and explained, "Actually, I was at MBC but felt unwell, so I was lying down in the medical room." He subsequently did not participate in the live broadcast and entered a period of rest; currently, the program is being conducted with a special DJ system.
Lee Sang-soon directly disclosed his health status on the 6th. He stated, "I apologize to listeners for taking a break from hosting without any prior explanation," adding, "Following medical advice that I need rest due to a neurological symptom called 'vagus nerve dysfunction,' I am unavoidably taking a break from radio and resting."
Lee Sang-soon married singer Lee Hyo-ri in 2013.
