Comedian Lee Seon-min is faithfully fulfilling a smoking ban pledge with a fine of 10 million won.

According to StarNews verification on the 13th, Lee Seon-min has been successfully adhering to the smoking ban pledge he recently made. According to a representative from his agency, since announcing the smoking ban pledge on August 27, Lee Seon-min has been striving toward successful cessation without wavering up to this day, which marks two weeks later.

Lee Seon-min previously announced the smoking ban pledge as a guest on the YouTube channel 'Chimchakman Original Museum' live broadcast.

At that time, Lee Seon-min confessed, "I want to do dieting and quit smoking at the same time," to which Chimchakman stated, "(To myself) I have put a bounty of 10 million won and have been quitting smoking for four years."

In response, Lee Seon-min announced a smoking ban pledge with a fine of 30 million won as proposed by Chimchakman, but later revised the fine to 10 million won, matching Chimchakman's amount.

Lee Seon-min declared, "I will make a pledge to quit smoking. If anyone spots Lee Seon-min smoking anywhere on Earth and takes a photo to report it, I will offer a bounty."

Lee Seon-min said, "I quit smoking for about a year when I was around 34 or 35 years old. However, due to some really stressful events, I started smoking again," expressing his determination to succeed in quitting this time.

The short-form video titled 'Lee Seon-min Last Cigarette' uploaded on the 'Chimchakman' channel surpassed 9 million views as of today, and the short-form video titled 'Lee Seon-min Smoking Ban Pledge' exceeded 5.7 million views.

Meanwhile, Lee Seon-min debuted in 2016 as the runner-up in the 16th SBS public recruitment for comedians and has been active primarily on comedy programs such as 'Search for Laughter - Legend Match', 'Comedy Royal', and 'Comedy Revenge', as well as on YouTube. In November last year, he gained popularity through content on his YouTube channel 'Yongjoo's Yongju' where comedian Lee Yong-ju and Yoo Young-woo suddenly raided his home. He also drew attention as 'Won-i Uncle' through content with group Lesnne member Won-i titled 'My Yeonsu Uncle', rising to become a 'trendy variety show personality'.

Lee Seon-min is proving his popularity by appearing on various variety shows this year, including MBC's 'I Live Alone', 'Radio Star', 'What Do You Do?', tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block', and JTBC's 'Knowing Bros'.
