Comedian Lee Kuk-joo cried while watching the first sunrise of the new year.
Lee Kuk-ju posted on his YouTube channel on the 12th, "The first sunrise of the new year in 2026 that I saw in Japan. It posted an article titled 'Happy New Year.'
On this day, Lee Kuk-ju visited Japan's sunrise attraction to see the first sunrise of the new year.
Standing by the sea, he said, "It feels different from watching the sunrise in 2025. "If I was a little excited then, I feel like I'm getting stronger at the beginning of this year," he said.

"This year, I feel like I have to plan more and think carefully about what I'm going to do and move," he said, adding, "I've been restless in 2025."
I think it was an ambiguous year because I thought, 'How should I live, how should I live, and what plans should I make?' It was very hard. I'm not just excited, but I'm determined," he said.
Lee Kuk-joo said, "I will work harder this year," adding, "Isn't there a saying that 'Don't be afraid of failure?' But that's what I'm saying in my 20s, and I'm afraid of failure. So I will live so as not to fail," he said.
He said, "I failed a lot in 2025. Just thinking about people who have been hurt and separated from each other, how many failures are there just by hitting them one by one. How many programs are missing. There were too many failures," he said, shedding tears.
Finally, Lee Kuk-ju repeatedly pledged a new start by raising his thumb toward the rising sun.
