Lee Sung-min Reveals Shocking Ant Bite and "Non-Alcoholic" Lifestyle on 'My Little Old Boy'

Veteran actor Lee Sung-min shared surprising anecdotes about his extremely low alcohol tolerance and a painful incident during a past filming on the latest episode of SBS's 'My Little Old Boy' (Sbs Entertainment).

Appearing as a guest on the variety show, Lee Sung-min confessed that he cannot drink alcohol at all, stating his limit is less than a single shot of soju. He even mentioned that he rarely drinks carbonated beverages and often proposes toasts with water. He humorously added that drinking even a digestive medicine on an empty stomach can make him feel intoxicated.

The actor also recounted his experiences playing high-profile characters. He admitted that after filming 'Reborn Rich,' where he played a conglomerate chairman, he felt awkward opening doors himself, accustomed to having them opened for him. He also recalled being called by his character's name, Professor Choi In-hyuk, during a medical check-up after filming the medical drama 'Golden Time.'

However, the most harrowing story involved an incident where he was bitten by a centipede on set. Lee Sung-min described it as the most excruciating pain he has ever experienced, leading to an emergency room visit. He found relief with painkillers but was amused to find doctors and nurses surrounding him later, with one asking, "Professor Choi In-hyuk, why are you here?"

Born in 1968, Lee Sung-min debuted in 2001 with the play 'Richard III.'

He has garnered significant acclaim for his roles in popular dramas such as 'Misaeng,' 'Rude Miss Young-ae,' 'Golden Time,' 'My Mister,' and 'Reborn Rich.'

His memorable performances in films like 'The Attorney,' 'A Violent Prosecutor,' and 'The Man Standing Next' have solidified his status as a highly respected actor.
