Kim Hee-cheol, who has been active as an original member of JTBC's 'Knowing Bros', will take a brief break.

A JTBC official told StarNews on the 30th, "Kim Hee-cheol will take a short break from 'Knowing Bros' due to health reasons," adding, "This is not a departure; he will rejoin later."

The official further stated, "He will not participate in filming starting today (the 30th)," and added, "The May 2 broadcast will be the final episode before the temporary break."

Previously, 'Knowing Bros' officially confirmed the first-ever female regular member with the addition of Kim Shin-young. With Kim Hee-cheol stepping away temporarily, the show is expected to welcome a new atmosphere.

Kim Hee-cheol joined 'Knowing Bros' when it first aired in 2015 as an original member and has been active with his unique, energetic variety sense.

Meanwhile, Kim Shin-young has consistently made her presence felt each time she appeared as a transfer student, showcasing her quick wit and bold humor. She drew laughter and positive responses with ad-libs that exceeded expectations and relatable episodes. Based on these performances, she has now become a regular member.

In a recent recording, Kim Shin-young dominated the 'Bros School' classroom atmosphere with her unique energy. It is reported that her clever reactions in various situations and seamless 'ticki-taka' chemistry naturally blended with existing members, adding new vitality to the program.

The production team stated, "Kim Shin-young quickly integrated into 'Bros School' based on the experience she accumulated by appearing as a transfer student five times," and added, "We expect her unique sense of humor and wit to bring fresh changes to the program."
