In an article from Sports Chosun, it’s reported that actress Myung Se-bin shared a story about her past financial struggles after her divorce, revealing that she had to sell bags to cover living expenses when work was scarce.
On December 3rd, at 8:40 PM, the 6th episode of the variety show “Because I’m Solo,” co-produced by SBS Plus and E Channel, features Myung Se-bin embarking on her first solo adventure to Yangyang, Gangwon-do. She expressed her desire to experience a getaway and chose Yangyang for its beautiful East Sea. Heading out in a camper van, Myung Se-bin struggles with camping setups as a novice, providing a humorously clumsy scene. During her trip, she receives help from a male camper, who lends her lights and sets up pink lighting around her camper van, turning the atmosphere romantic.
The episode garners interest as viewers wonder if a spontaneous romantic opportunity will arise during Myung Se-bin’s ‘escape trip.’ Adding more excitement, her friend, actress Kang Rae-yeon, makes a surprise visit after seeing Myung Se-bin’s video of the sea on social media. Despite struggles with a king crab cooking session in strong winds and a gas shortage, they are assisted by the helpful male camper, dubbed ‘Yangyang Man.’
Reflecting on tougher times, Myung Se-bin recalls, “After my divorce in my 30s, I didn’t have work for a long time.” She candidly shares her emotional state post-divorce, comparing it to having lost her shine. As the studio watches, fellow cast member Chae Rim comments on the conservative nature of the broadcast industry despite its seemingly open-minded facade, humorously pointing out her concerns as well.
With laughter in the studio, Myung Se-bin admits to her friend Kang Rae-yeon, “I didn’t have money, so I even sold my bags.” Studio MC Hwang Jung-eum chimes in, sharing her own recent experience of selling a hat online and encountering surprise from the buyer, causing everyone to laugh.
