Lee Gwan-rin, a former member of the group Wanna One, has revealed his recent life in China after retiring.
In the second episode of the recently released Mnet Plus original reality show "WANNA ONE GO : Back to Base" (hereinafter "Wanna One Go"), Ha Sung-woon is shown meeting Lee Gwan-rin in China.
Lee Gwan-rin, who loves Korean food so much that he cooks it himself, calmly said, "When I first came to Beijing, I had no friends and no family here. I really missed Korean food and had no one around to ask. So I had to make and eat it myself."
Regarding his recent activities, he added, "I am now working at a Chinese film production company, learning about scripts, and mainly working on short films. I feel secure now that I am a salaryman."
He smiled, saying he is satisfied with his current life. Lee Gwan-rin said, "It's really good right now. I like the way I am slowly moving forward. I prefer this slow progress through my own efforts rather than the feeling of becoming a singer too quickly."
Ha Sung-woon expressed surprise, telling Lee Gwan-rin, "You speak Korean better than when Wanna One ended." Lee Gwan-rin calmly replied, "It's because I still have lingering feelings for Korea. I showed him the tattoo on my arm, which has August 7th engraved on it—the debut day of Wanna One. If I were to mention a day I personally want to commemorate, I would say August 7th."
Additionally, Lee Gwan-rin honestly told the Wanna One members, "I miss you guys a lot and want to work together again, but I feel that filming again would be too burdensome for me." Members including leader Yoon Ji-sung, Hwang Min-hyun, Ong Seong-wu, and Park Ji-hoon were moved to tears.
