Updates on actor Choi Cheol-ho have been reported.

On the 18th, Choi Cheol-ho appeared on MBN's current affairs and documentary program "Special World."

Choi Cheol-ho had been living alone following controversies over assaulting a junior colleague and a drunken disorderly conduct incident. He even resorted to eating expired instant noodles at home to get by.

He said, "There were times when my monthly salary as a theater actor was only 0.1 billion won. Back then, I really lived on instant noodles alone."

Choi Cheol-ho ceased all activities after an incident in 2010 where he assaulted a junior colleague. Later, news emerged via broadcasts that he was working as a day laborer at a logistics center, sparking public interest and raising the possibility of his return to broadcasting. However, a drunken disorderly conduct incident soon occurred.

Regarding the drunken disorderly conduct incident that occurred in 2022, Choi Cheol-ho explained that he had agreed to receive a commission of 1 million won for a sales job at the time, but in reality, he received only 0.1 billion won. He stated that, while intoxicated, he then went to So Sok-sa (CEO)'s residence and caused a disturbance.

Choi Cheol-ho confessed, "Regardless of the reason, it was a criminal act and truly insane behavior."

He also expressed his deep regret toward his family. Choi Cheol-ho said, "When I caused the incident, my son was 4 or 5 years old, and my daughter was still in my wife's womb. My wife couldn't tell the children who their father was. I felt so terribly sorry."

He continued, "We had no home and lived with my grandmother. The children grew up reading articles about their father. I might have been able to handle my own turbulent life, but what crime did the children commit?"

Additionally, Choi Cheol-ho revealed that he is currently abstaining from alcohol. He stated, "It wasn't alcohol addiction like Jennie's; the problem was the injections. I hurt far too many people. Especially to my family, I am a sinner."
