Lee Bong-gul's younger brother "It hurts a lot to be like that. It hurts to talk about it every time I see it. You get scammed again by someone you cheated on. I once brought someone who cheated on me, so 'Oppa, it's not this person. Even though he said, `You're cheating again', he said, `No', and he believed what he said and got beat again.' `He listens well to others. But what the brothers say is, "I'm going to die, I'm not going to listen."
After retiring, Lee Bong-gul "I couldn't just forget to stay at home, so I ran a bamboo salt business and made a lot of money. But when the partner hit me in the back of the head, it collapsed in one shot. It's a household check, a bill, because I came back and raised some money. I didn't get it, so I fell down for the second time. Now that I've lost it twice, I can't do anything and I forget everything I can"He confessed.
He said "I feel sorry for the kids, too. If I hadn't, the kids wouldn't have lived this hard." "Even now, I don't ask anyone at home for money." I'm just living for a month with a basic pension of 320,000 won and a disability allowance of 60,000 won."
