'Jeon Hyun-moo Plan 3' featured Hwang Jae-kyun speaking about retirement.

In the 29th episode of MBN and Channel S's variety show 'Jeon Hyun-moo Plan 3', which aired on the 1st, Hwang Jae-kyun, known as a "food friend," was shown embarking on a food trip to Mungyeong.

Appearing as a food friend that day, Hwang Jae-kyun declared his firm resolve: "I'll take my body profile photos on my birthday in July, so today I'll eat, and afterward I'll exercise to lose weight."

Hwang Jae-kyun, Jeon Hyun-moo, and Kwak Tube (Kwak Jun-bin) purchased two-horn Hanwoo beef and pork with a hard rind, then grilled and ate it themselves at a restaurant. During the meal, Kwak Tube asked Hwang Jae-kyun, "You're not yet at the age where you should retire, so why did you retire?"

In response, Hwang Jae-kyun answered honestly: "My form has declined significantly compared to my prime, and I felt it myself. I thought that if I continued for just one or two more years, I would decline completely and be pushed into retirement. Because I disliked that so much, I decided to finish my career as a starting player in the first division."

Jeon Hyun-moo said, "That was a courageous choice," and Kwak Tube expressed surprise, saying, "You must have received a higher salary."

Hwang Jae-kyun said regarding an honorable retirement: "Of course, if I had continued, I would have received a higher salary. While receiving a large salary is important, I thought that was even more important."
