Broadcaster Do Kyung-wan confessed that he experienced depression and a decline in self-esteem after resigning from KBS.
In the episode of the KBS 2TV variety show 'New Product Launch Binstaurant' (hereinafter 'Binstaurant') broadcast on the 8th, Do Kyung-wan was shown returning as a partner chef for the first time in five years and eight months.
On this day, Do Kyung-wan invited the production team to his home, laid out a red carpet, and celebrated his return by scattering flower petals alone. He joked, "I quit so I could walk only on flower paths, but I mostly walked kitchen paths."
Jang Yoon-jung, who appeared later, commented on her husband's return to KBS, saying, "That's right. It's a return to my parents' home," and added, "Was quitting KBS the first time? That's why I told you not to quit carelessly."
In particular, Jang Yoon-jung revealed, "You cried every night, drank alcohol, and said 'I want to go back to KBS.' Then you started filming YouTube videos by yourself," which drew laughter.

Afterward, Do Kyung-wan also shared the difficulties he faced after becoming a freelancer. He said, "When I was at the company, work was assigned to me even if I didn't want to do it. After living like that and coming out, there is no assignment. You have to go find it."
In response, Jang Yoon-jung recalled, "It's the wild. There was quite a period when he got stressed, complained, and sighed."
Do Kyung-wan stated, "I felt depressed and my self-esteem started to drop. Looking back on it now, it was also a regrettable choice," and added, "There was nothing to do on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, so I took Yeon-woo camping and did things like that."
Then Jang Yoon-jung comforted her husband by saying, "Regarding self-esteem and having things you want to do, he wasn't just idle during the time without work. He did extremely meaningful things. Taking care of the kids."
She added, "We can talk about it with smiles now, right? Let's each do what we are good at."
In particular, Jang Yoon-jung opened up by saying, "There are times when I feel sorry for him. He is a man who does everything well and is fine, but I wonder if meeting me made him stand behind someone else's name," and added, "He has tremendous self-esteem, so I imagine how hard it must be to live pretending he doesn't."
In response, Do Kyung-wan answered honestly, catching attention, by saying, "Inferiority complex? If you ask whether that kind of feeling has been completely eliminated, the answer is no."
Meanwhile, Do Kyung-wan joined KBS as a public recruitment announcer in 2009 and resigned in 2021. He married Jang Yoon-jung in 2013 and has one son and one daughter.
