On "What's the Point of Leaving It Behind?", singer Lee Chan-won (30) shared a story about his first settlement payment, revealing his exceptional filial piety.

Lee appeared as a guest on Episode 62 of tvN STORY's "What's the Point of Leaving It Behind?", which aired on the night of the 12th.

On that day, Lee recalled his participation in TV Chosun's "Mr. Trot" in 2020. He revealed that he had borrowed 2 million won from his mother when he moved from his hometown Daegu to Seoul. "It must have been a huge sum of money for my mom, but she still sent it," he recalled.

Lee stated, "I told my mom I would repay the 2nd million won tenfold." He continued, "On the day of my first settlement, I transferred every single won to my mother's bank account. My first settlement amount was more than ten times what I had borrowed from her. It included payments for several months because I appeared on multiple follow-up programs. I gave all of my next month's settlement payment to my father," sharing a heartwarming story.

Additionally, Lee conveyed his affectionate family bond by saying, "She has set up a separate bank account and keeps the money I give her there. So it drives me crazy. I'm grateful, but it's frustrating. I give it to her so she can use it, so why can't she?"
