FT Island member FT Island Lee Hong-ki recently caught attention by mentioning his ex-girlfriend during a PC bang gathering.
During the SBS variety show ‘My Little Old Boy’ airing on the night of the 8th, the first-ever PC bang gathering of the original ‘game geek’ quartetβKim Hee-chul, Choi Jin-hyuk, Cho Hyun-ah, and Lee Hong-kiβwas unveiled. The special meeting of four people who live and die by games drew massive interest.
In a recent studio recording of ‘My Little Old Boy’, the appearance of the four gaming enthusiasts prompted remarks such as, “People who love games have really gathered here,” and “This is going to be crazy.” The four formed an instant bond over staying up all night for games and eventually visited a ‘full-course PC bang’ equipped with nap rooms, saunas, and a gym. Stunned by the top-tier facilities, the studio cast members couldn’t close their mouths, agreeing that it would be heaven for gamers.
The unique gaming lifestyles of these four individuals, who are more sincere about gaming than anyone else, were then revealed. Choi Jin-hyuk brought his own flashy gaming equipment and shocked everyone by confessing that he had been scolded by his mother over games just a few days prior. Watching from the studio, Choi Jin-hyuk’s mother left everyone laughing by struggling to find words, lamenting, “Jin-hyuk is getting older, and I’m getting older too…”

Lee Hong-ki similarly showed off his extraordinary gaming pride, stating, “I loved games so much that I even released a song about them.” The fierce pride match between the four eventually escalated into an epic gaming showdown, causing the mothers’ club to let out continuous sighs. Viewers are left wondering who among the four claimed the title of the ultimate ‘game geek’.
Kim Hee-chul confessed that his wish is to someday play games together with a girlfriend, which quickly infuriated Kim Hee-chul’s mother. Hearing this, Lee Hong-ki surprised everyone with a shocking confession: “I once had an ex-girlfriend who secretly practiced games just because of me,” earning the full envy of Kim Hee-chul.
Meanwhile, ‘My Little Old Boy’ is a long-running flagship SBS variety show launched in 2016 where mothers act as narrators to observe their sons’ daily lives and record moments through the device of a parenting diary. It consistently records high viewership ratings hovering around 8 to 9 percent. Alongside the game geeks’ PC bang meetup, this week’s episode also features 64-year-old single middle-aged man Kim Jang-hoon and singer Lee So-ra, raising expectations even higher.
