Actor Lee Si Eon closes his cafe + was under controversy for unreasonably high prices

Actor Lee Si Eon is closing his cafe 'Sangdo Ranch'.

The actor revealed on August 27 that he was quitting Sangdo Ranch after running it for a year. 


He stated: "I opened Sangdo Ranch in August of 2018 and now a year has passed. This is the first time I opened a cafe and I am made a lot of good memories."  He stated that he was closing the cafe due to personal issues and that he would focus more on acting. 

Sangdo Ranch was previously under controversy for their high prices for seemingly normal items that would run for 5 times the price compared to a street food stall. The Sangdo Pancake went for 10,500 KRW (~8 USD) which many netizens saw as ridiculously high. 

Lee Si Eon is currently a popular panelist on 'I Live Alone' and is actively promoting as an actor.

1) The coffee prices looks very typical for Korea.

2) It's not a pancake, it's hoddeok. That's a street food that typically sells for under ₩2,000. Give the readers some context! Normal (western) pancakes sell for ₩15,000 easy, so using that word makes no sense.
