Actor Lee Yi-kyung, who faced a privacy controversy, has shared an update after resuming social media activity for the first time in about six months.

On the 9th, Lee posted several photos on his social media account along with the caption, “My first marathon.”

In the released photos, Lee is seen taking part in the running event “I Am SOLO Run 2026.” Wearing a light blue running T-shirt, he smiles brightly with a finisher’s medal around his neck, drawing attention with his natural post-workout look.

In another photo, he strikes a finger-heart pose with Song Hae Na, sharing a cheerful energy. Lee also left a brief comment on the post, saying, “Nasol Run! I was happy!”

The event was a marathon themed around “I’m Solo.” It covered a 10-kilometer course that started at Yeouido Culture Plaza and turned back near Seogang Bridge.

In particular, Lee joined the marathon in person with Song Hae Na, the program’s MC, and successfully finished the race.

The post drew even more attention because it was Lee’s first update in about six months since he uploaded a statement regarding last year’s privacy controversy.

Meanwhile, Lee was caught up in allegations related to his private life last year and stepped down from programs he was appearing on, including Munhwa Broadcasting Corporation (MBC)’s variety show “Hangout with Yoo.” His planned participation as an MC on Korean Broadcasting System (KBS)’s “The Return of Superman” also fell through.

He later denied all the allegations and took legal action. He is currently communicating with fans through “I’m Solo.”
