JTBC's upcoming variety program '99 Meeting' (short for�A Man Who Satisfies 99 Women) held a press conference this week. �At the event, Shin Dong Yup mentioned one of Korea's iconic female solo artists, Lee Hyori.

He said, "I personally once told Lee Hyori to live like Korea's Madonna . . . However, one day, I saw her turn over a new leaf to become not the Lee Hyori I once knew but an adult, who even became a vegetarian. �

As a joke, I had told her to become a person of no equal in Korea, but she really began to think at a higher level of other people's happiness while also living for her own happiness."
