Actor Lee Seo-jin brought laughter to viewers by hilariously confessing his past 'picky' days.

In the SBS entertainment program ‘My Manager Is Too Much for Me – Manager Seo-jin,’ aired on the 7th, Lee Seo-jin and Kim Gwang-gyu transformed into managers, accompanying actor Ji Chang-wook on his daily routine.

‘Manager Seo-jin’ deviates from the typical talk show format, instead offering a real roadshow-style entertainment show that closely observes a star's day, revealing their true selves and inner thoughts.

During the broadcast, Lee Seo-jin reflected on his past self while witnessing Ji Chang-wook's humble attitude. He frankly shared, 'In the past, I used to care about my screen time and be quite fussy. But Chang-wook, even with less screen time, does what he wants.' He added, 'If I was told my screen time was low, I would throw the script,' much to the amusement of everyone present.

Kim Gwang-gyu, upon hearing this, smoothed things over by saying, 'It's good to meet with the younger generation anyway,' and the three continued their sincere conversation, transcending generational differences.

Lee Seo-jin offered practical advice to his juniors: 'As you get older, you must find joy that suits your age.' Ji Chang-wook, a 20-year veteran actor, agreed, 'I've started to enjoy company dinners these days. Before, I felt self-conscious and couldn't even suggest a meal, but now I actually want to hang out together,' sharing a heartfelt smile.

Meanwhile, SBS’s ‘My Manager Is Too Much for Me – Manager Seo-jin’ airs every Saturday night, with Lee Seo-jin's 'genuine human side' hidden behind his charismatic persona receiving a warm response from viewers.

Netizens who watched the show reacted with comments like, 'Lee Seo-jin's honesty is amazing lol,' 'I also wanted to throw the script when my screen time was low,' and 'It's heartwarming to see his more human side.'
