In Tokyo, the comedian spent time with SS501 members and shared moments on her YouTube channel.

Korean comedian Lee Guk-ju spent time in Tokyo dating a member of SS501, Kyujong. On October 31, she uploaded a YouTube video titled “SS501 Kyujong in Tokyo Date Vlog,” showing her at a SS501 concert and greeting Kyujong backstage. She also attended the concert with the group and took memorable photos with Kyujong, Heo Young-saeng, and Kim Hyun-joong.

Kyujong recalled the musicians’ early days, noting that they had performed together with branches of the early Hallyu wave. He joked that Lee Guk-ju had “bought a house in Tokyo’s Ueno,” to which Lee retorted that it was rent and asked him to stop spreading rumors. The two laughed as they discussed the group’s 20th anniversary and the emotions that come with watching longtime friends perform.

Lee described feeling moved while watching SS501’s 20th anniversary concert, reflecting on how they debuted around the same time. She admitted that seeing the performance brought a mix of happiness and melancholy, given their shared long years in the industry. The interview also touched on their collaboration during the concert, including a lighthearted moment about a song Kyujong said they originally performed with Hyungjoon and Young-saeng.
