Comedian Hwang Je-seong shed tears as he recalled a moment when he received comfort from Moon Se-yoon during a difficult period in his life.

On the episode of MBN's "Kim Joo-ha's Day and Night" broadcast on the 3rd, comedians Kim Jun-hyun, Hwang Je-seong, and Gimhae-jun appeared to share their stories.

That day, they asked Kim Ju-ha-neun (황제)-seong if he had ever actually cried because of Moon Se-yoon.

Hwang Je-seong began by saying, "It is somewhat connected to the time after I became a comedian; there was quite a bit of debt at home." In response, Kim Ju-ha-neun (황제)-seong mentioned that he had paid off all of his father's debts.

Kim Joo-ha asked if it was around the time when picket protests even took place in front of the broadcasting station due to his father's debt issues, and Hwang Je-seong revealed that he had been mentally very distressed at the time due to family matters. Coincidentally, a recording session for tvN's "Comedy Big League" was scheduled for that day.

As news about the situation surrounding Hwang Je-seong at the time spread, people around him were in an uproar, and he recalled being in such a difficult state that he could not even properly memorize his lines. He confessed, "I also experienced physical changes similar to social anxiety disorder. My legs felt shaky even when I was sitting still. It was something I had never experienced before."

However, the recording schedule kept approaching. Hwang Je-seong said that although he thought he must take responsibility for and complete his part on stage, even if he fell apart after coming down from it, he found it hard to shake off his fear.

At that time, he ended up having a one-on-one conversation with Moon Se-yoon behind the stage. Recalling the moment, Hwang Je-seong shed tears and revealed that Moon Se-yoon had told him, "It is a great honor that I can do comedy in the same era as you."

Hwang Je-seong said through tears, "It was a genre I loved very much, but at that time, going out to perform was the scariest thing. He simply said, 'It is such an honor that we can do comedy in the same era,' and then left, but it seemed to give me a lot of strength."

Moon Se-yoon also remembered the situation at the time. He stated that Hwang Je-seong had brought up the story for the first time on this day, and expressed relief that he now seems to have enough composure to be able to speak about it.

He then explained that the segment the two were working on at the time was the number one most-loved segment on "Comedy Big League." He recalled that even while watching Moon Se-yun-eun (황제)-seong become dejected, he felt it would be cruel to hastily tell him to cheer up before the recording.

Moon Se-yoon revealed, "No matter what happened, we had to go up and make people laugh, and come down and cry; it was like our destiny," stating that he had sincerely wanted to give Hwang Je-seong courage at the time and had therefore said those words to him.

He added that Lee Eo (황제)-seong performed well on stage without showing signs of his difficult situation, and that the segment in question also took first place.
