A billiards match between entertainers Lee Soo-geun and Shin Dong-yup recently became a hot topic in the Korean entertainment scene. During the 10th-anniversary special of SBS's 'My Little Old Boy,' Lee Soo-geun secured a come-from-behind victory against Shin Dong-yup with a score of 20-14, once again showcasing his formidable billiards skills. The match garnered significant attention as it involved a stake of appearing on Lee Soo-geun's YouTube channel.
Lee Soo-geun was previously introduced as a player capable of scoring 26 points on an international-style large table in the 2015 KBS N Sports billiards variety show 'Jukbang Jeonseol.' He demonstrates a deep passion for billiards, even carrying his personal cue, and has acquired a billiards hall in Cheongdam-dong to use as his office. Shin Dong-yup acknowledged Lee Soo-geun's skill, stating, "If Soo-geun is Super Junior, I'm just a trainee," indicating the high level of competition among celebrity billiards enthusiasts, including Tak Jae-hoon, who has won celebrity billiards tournaments.
Bloggers highlighted Lee Soo-geun's confidence, quoting him as saying, "In the entertainment industry, I am the Son Heung-min of billiards," attributing his victory to consistent practice and skill. While Shin Dong-yup initially took the lead, Lee Soo-geun made a comeback to win. As a result of his loss, Shin Dong-yup is set to appear on Lee Soo-geun's YouTube channel for another billiards game, further cementing Lee Soo-geun's reputation as a top billiards player in the entertainment world.
