Korean netizens react to Lee So Ra inviting her ex Shin Dong Yup as her first guest to her new Youtube series

In the upcoming web entertainment series 'Supermarket Sora,' former supermodel Lee So Ra takes on a new role as the owner of a supermarket where she invites familiar faces for candid conversations about their past and present.

A teaser video for the show features Lee So Ra and her first guest, Shin Dong Yup, engaged in a delightful conversation against the backdrop of a uniquely decorated supermarket. The reveal of Shin Dong Yup as her first guest surprised netizens as it is well known that the two used to date. In fact the upcoming episode will be the first time the two will sit down to have a conversation in over two decades. 

In response to this surprising announcement, Korean netizens shared their reactions on a Korean online community. 

"What??? Even though they mentioned each other, isn't this the first time they've been officially caught on the same camera?"
"Hasn't it been more than 15 years... I guess if you're more exact it's been more than 20 years."

"The number of views is going to explode lol."

"Even if you dated for a long time and broke up, you wouldn't feel anything after about ten years. Anyway, wow, that's a curious combination. I can't believe they met and talked haha."

"I like how they always refer to each other as wonderful people."

"I guess it's possible since they broke up on good terms. Shin Dong Yup's wife is also a good person, and her job is a producer, so I guess it's understandable. Anyway, I'm looking forward to it. I'll have to watch it."

"It's been a long time, and judging by the news and people's reactions, it seems like the topic was a success."

"It wasn't even a year or two ago, it was several decades ago."

"I don’t think anything like this has ever happened in our country’s entertainment industry haha."

"It was 20 years ago, but it wouldn't be strange to see them get back together again."

"Wow, of course it was 20 years ago, but I know they even thought about getting married. Haha, that's amazing. Even if I saw my ex-lover, I don't think I'll ever be able to have a reunion with the person I liked enough to want to marry."

"Shin Dong Yup was hearing impaired, so Lee So Ra learned sign language. That was always very memorable to me."

The debut episode of 'Supermarket Sora' is set to premiere on YouTube on December 6 at 6PM KST.
