Recently, the billiards match between Lee Soo-geun and Shin Dong-yeop on the 10th-anniversary special of SBS's 'My Little Old Boy' garnered significant attention. In this match, Lee Soo-geun achieved a comeback victory against Shin Dong-yeop with a score of 20-14, once again solidifying his reputation as a celebrity billiards master. Lee Soo-geun has previously showcased his billiards skills on various broadcasts, and this victory earned him the nickname 'Faker of billiards'.
Lee Soo-geun demonstrates an extraordinary passion for billiards, having been introduced as a professional-level player in the 2015 KBS N Sports billiards variety show 'Jukbang Jeonseol'. Furthermore, he acquired a billiards hall in Cheongdam-dong that had been operating for over 20 years, transforming it into his personal office and billiards room. He is also known for using a specially made cue stick valued at 8 million won. Shin Dong-yeop acknowledged Lee Soo-geun's skill by comparing him to 'Super Junior', while Lee Soo-geun cleverly likened Shin Dong-yeop to 'retired coach Cha Bum-kun'.
Bloggers expressed surprise at Lee Soo-geun's sincerity and investment in billiards, attributing his skill to his equipment and passion. Particular interest was shown in his comeback victory despite Shin Dong-yeop's early lead, his expensive cue stick, and his Cheongdam-dong billiards hall office. Many highly regard Lee Soo-geun's love for billiards and his skill, agreeing with his self-proclaimed title as the 'Son Heung-min of celebrity billiards'.
