Comedian Yoon Taek revealed his past of losing even his parents' home due to a business failure.

On the 10th, MBN's "Kim Joo-ha's Day and Night" featured comedians Yoon Taek and Lee Sang-yoon as guests.

On this day, Yoon Taek stated, "I debuted as an SBS public recruitment 7th-generation comedian, but I did it late." He added, "Before that, I tried a promotional goods business, and since it went well, I entered the clothing business. It also went well, so I conducted a wholesale business in Dongdaemun."

At the time, Yoon Taek's business was thriving to the extent of reaching 30 million won in daily sales. He explained, "It included costs, but 30 million won came in each day like that." He continued, "With the money earned, I did another venture business and expanded into Gangnam. I had up to 31 employees."

However, as the venture boom subsided, the business declined rapidly, and he said, "The venture bubble rose and was enormous. The conclusion is simply that it failed."

The aftermath of his business failure extended to his family. Yoon Taek's eyes reddened as he said, "My parents' house was also lost, and everything was gone through auction. When my family moved into a small house, my mother wiped the floor and cried enormously. Just thinking about that makes me feel like such an unfilial son. I wanted to overcome it, but I didn't know how to handle debts in the hundreds of millions of won."

He continued, "I came this far with just willpower, determination, and one idea, but when it collapsed, there was nowhere to go. I felt like standing on the edge of a cliff, but since my dream since childhood had been to be a comedian, I put down everything including friends and entered Daehak-ro saying, 'Let's try being a comedian.'"

He also recalled difficult times. Yoon Taek mentioned his poor living conditions by saying, "Have you ever seen flowers blooming in a window? There were so many such flowers blooming at home that it was too cold." He added, "I sat on the toilet to shower, but the toilet cracked. It was old and broke because of the cold, but I found it funny."

He added, "The reason I could endure those days was because I thought becoming a comedian was the only way to escape poverty."
