Singer Lee Chan-won drew attention by revealing his marriage plans.

In the ninth episode of 'Jeon Hyun-moo's Plan 4' (co-produced by MBN and Channel S), which aired on the 28th, Lee Chan-won joined as a 'Special MC' in place of Kwak Tube, who was absent due to schedule conflicts. Along with 'Nameless Legend' TOP4 member Hwang Yoon-seong, they embarked on a Daegu food trip with Jeon Hyun-moo. The trio visited the original restaurant for 'Nureun-guksu' (yellow noodles) under the banner of 'Lee Chan-won's Plan,' as well as a famous catfish spicy soup house and even a spicy Galbi-jjim restaurant recommended by viewers.

Jeon Hyun-moo remarked, "We've come to Daegu Dalseong-gu, but there's no 'Daegu son-in-law' today," referencing Kwak Tube's absence, before adding, "Instead, let's call on a 'son of Daegu,'" summoning Lee Chan-won. Upon his arrival, Lee Chan-won immediately performed a genuine duet with Jeon Hyun-moo and presented him with a self-prepared honorary sash reading "Honorary Son of Daegu." Hwang Yoon-seong, Lee Chan-won's "best friend," also joined in. Declaring, "Today is 'Lee Chan-won's Plan'!" Lee Chan-won noted that Daegu has ten flavors and yellow noodles before leading the group to his favorite spot. Jeon Hyun-moo praised him, saying, "You're a better host than Kwak Tube," to which Lee Chan-won replied, "I came here with that very intention."

Upon arriving at the restaurant, an employee who recognized Lee Chan-won rushed over to embrace him. The group quickly placed their orders for yellow noodles and boiled pork belly. At this point, Lee Chan-won flawlessly explained the etymology and origins of yellow noodles as well as Daegu's food culture, showcasing the true value of "Chan-tto-Wiki." Jeon Hyun-moo exclaimed, "He seems better than the free version of AI," expressing genuine admiration. The group then enjoyed a combination of 87-year-old traditional Daegu-style hand-pulled noodles, boiled pork belly, and aged kimchi.

After their successful first meal, the three headed to the catfish spicy soup restaurant highly recommended by Lee Chan-won, followed by a Daegu-style spicy Galbi-jjim restaurant recommended by viewers. During the trip, Jeon Hyun-moo asked Hwang Yoon-seong, "Is there anything about Chan-won that you don't want to be like?" Hwang Yoon-seong replied, "If I had to pick one, it's that he doesn't let people go home." Lee Chan-won nodded in agreement and boasted of his incredible drinking capacity: "When I drink with Yoon-seong, we aim to finish the bottles. When the two of us drink heavily, we can consume 6 to 12 bottles of soju."

Amidst their electrifying chemistry, they arrived at the viewer-recommended restaurant and ordered steered Hanwoo Galbi. Both Jeon Hyun-moo and Lee Chan-won, who have a strong sense of spiciness, gave a thumbs-up while saying, "It's deliciously spicy." However, Jeon Hyun-moo then cautiously brought up a lingering grievance with Lee Chan-won: "There's something I wanted to check. You've appeared on many shows with me, yet you once said you want to appear on a show with Kang Ho-dong." Lee Chan-won explained, "Hyung-nim Kang Ho-dong is the one who brought me into the broadcasting industry, and Hyung-nim Hyun-woo is someone walking alongside me on this path today."

Towards the end of the meal, Jeon Hyun-moo asked when he planned to get married. Hwang Yoon-seong answered, "I want to continue my activities for another 10 years and get married in my early 40s."

Lee Chan-won also stated, "My plan is to get married around the age of 45." He added, "Before my debut, I couldn't afford tuition, so I worked part-time to survive college life. That's why, now that things are going well, I deeply value work." He further expressed his desire to release a hit song known by all citizens.

MBN and Channel S's 'Jeon Hyun-moo's Plan 4' airs every Friday at 9:10 p.m.
