Lee Dong-gun's Dad Surprises His Wife with 46-Year Vow Renewal on 'My Little Old Boy'
My Little Old BoyLee Dong-gun’s parents renewed their vows in a heartwarming surprise orchestrated by his father ― with an assist from the actor ― on SBS’ "My Little Old Boy."

On the Nov. 23 episode, Lee teamed up with his dad to plan something special for Mom, celebrating their recent anniversary and her upcoming birthday.

Under the guise of a “family photo shoot,” Mom arrived to find a wedding dress waiting just for her ― a setup for a vow renewal 46 years after their original “I do.”

Once she slipped into the gown, Lee entered in a sharp suit while his father appeared in a tux. Taking cues from his son, Dad showered his wife with praise: “You look amazing ― like we’re getting married again. That dress is perfect on you. You’re beautiful.”

The couple posed for their vow-renewal photos, laughing through the nerves and making a new memory together.

Then came a surprise within the surprise: Dad walked in mid-shoot singing a serenade for his wife, eventually handing her the mic so they could finish the song as a duet.

Like old times, the two sang together while Lee watched, beaming. They exchanged simple, tender words ― “Thank you. I love you.” ― that said it all.

For gifts, Dad first presented a 1,000-piece puzzle made from their family trip photos, drawing a politely hesitant reaction from Mom.

From the studio panel, Seo Jang-hoon joked that she was probably hoping for “something that sparkles.” Sure enough, Dad’s real gift was a gleaming gold bracelet.

At the sight of the jewelry, Mom’s face lit up. “She looks truly happy now,” Seo quipped. “She didn’t even smile before!”

A teaser at the end promised a first: all the "My Little Old Boy" daughters gathering together, setting up next week’s episode with plenty of anticipation.
