Why is "les" being used here?

[createdamadman]

So I'm reading this short story where people are choosing characters to play in a board game, and have the following exchange:





Person 1: ¨Hmm, me gusta ayudar a la gente, pero no sé si un hechicero es lo correcto para mí.¨

Person 2: ¨Entonces, ¿qué les parece un explorador? Un explorador vive en el bosque con los animales.¨


The part that confuses me is "qué les parece". I get that this is basically "how does this seem to you" which is like saying "how about"/"what about", but I don't understand why "les" is used instead of "le". I can provide more context from the story if needed, but person 2 is only addressing person 1 and no one else. Is this an error or am I missing something?
