Comedian Hwang Ki-soon confessed to having lost his entire fortune through overseas gambling and later regretted it.

Hwang Ki-soon will appear in episode 37 of MBN's "Kim Ju-ha's Day & Night," airing on the 8th.

During a recent recording, Hwang Ki-soon revealed the dangers of gambling addiction, stating, "Once you fall into gambling, you neglect your work and begin to obsess over recovering lost money, causing the situation to deteriorate rapidly."

Hwang Ki-soon also shared his desperate past of having to hide in the Philippines for a long period after losing all his assets due to overseas gambling. He said, "I have reflected and regretted countless times. I am living my second life while engaging in fundraising activities out of deep remorse and apology."

Kim Jeong-ryul, who appeared alongside Hwang Ki-soon, made a surprising confession that the iconic catchphrase "Sung-gu-ri Dang-dang, Sung-dang-dang," which swept across South Korea, originally did not belong to him. At the time, while preparing a new segment with Joo Byung-jin, Kim Jeong-ryul recalled the cheer slogan "Sung-gu-ri Dang-dang, Sung-dang-dang" used by fellow comedian Cho Jung-hyun. He approached Cho Jung-hyun to ask for permission to use it. After appearing visibly upset and deeply troubled for a while, Cho Jung-hyun suddenly proposed, "Just give me 50,000 won," finalizing the deal. Kim Jeong-ryul remarked proudly, "That 50,000 won would be worth about 300,000 won at today's value. I really made a good investment."

Kim Jeong-ryul also revealed another story: he performed "Sung-gu-ri Dang-dang, Sung-dang-dang" at the funeral of the late Jeon Yu-seong, which sparked widespread discussion. Although initially hesitant due to the sudden request, Kim Jeong-ryul decided to do it with the mindset that "since passing away is fate, let's show the dance he loved with a joyful heart." His heartfelt performance brought simultaneous tears and laughter throughout the funeral venue. MCs including Kim Ju-ha noted, "This is a form of tribute only comedians can offer."

"Kim Ju-ha's Day & Night" is a new concept issue-maker talk show featuring "day and night, cold reason and passion, information and emotion," airing every Saturday at 9:40 p.m.
