Lee Dae-ho Reveals His 4 Million Won Monthly Allowance, Prompting Choo Shin-soo's 'Tax Audit' Joke

Former baseball star Lee Dae-ho has become a hot topic after revealing his monthly allowance is 4 million won.

On the SBS entertainment program 'Same Bed, Different Dreams 2 - You Are My Destiny' (hereinafter 'Same Bed, Different Dreams 2'), which aired on the 15th, Lee Dae-ho and his family appeared and shared their daily lives.

During the broadcast, Lee Dae-ho's wife discussed his allowance, stating that he received 3 million won per month when they were newly married. She explained that he felt it was insufficient, and after he strongly advocated for an increase last year, it was raised by 1 million won to the current 4 million won per month.

Upon hearing this, fellow baseball player Choo Shin-soo jokingly remarked, "He must not be able to live on that. We should conduct a tax audit," bringing laughter to the set.

Broadcaster Kim Sook also shared an anecdote about Lee Dae-ho recently treating junior colleagues to beef, incurring a bill of 12 million won. This amount is equivalent to three months of his allowance. When Seo Jang-hoon inquired if he had a "secret stash" or "other pocket," Lee Dae-ho's wife replied, "I believe he doesn't," sparking further curiosity.

Lee Dae-ho, often called 'Joseon's Cleanup Hitter,' is a legendary slugger who excelled in the KBO and Nippon Professional Baseball. Since retiring, he has been actively engaging with the public through various entertainment shows. His generous spending habits have been a frequent topic of discussion on television.
