Comedian Lee Jin-ho collapsed from a cerebral hemorrhage and is being treated in the intensive care unit, while non-family visits are controlled.

On the 9th, his agency, SM C&C, said, "Lee Jin-ho was hospitalized with a sudden cerebral hemorrhage on the afternoon of the 1st."

"We are currently recovering consciousness and focusing on treatment," he said. "As the artist's health recovery is the top priority, we ask for your warm support so that you can focus on recovery."

Lee Jin-ho reportedly collapsed from a sudden cerebral hemorrhage on the 1st and was transferred to the emergency room of a hospital in Seoul and is receiving intensive care in the intensive care unit. It is not known to be life-threatening.

Intensive care units are strictly controlled to minimize the risk of infection in severely ill patients and to maintain a stable treatment environment. Access to non-medical staff is restricted, and only a minimum number of guardians can visit within a limited time.

According to these regulations, Lee Jin-ho is also restricted from visiting outsiders except for his family and guardians.

Meanwhile, Lee Jin-ho is currently suspended from broadcasting due to controversy over illegal gambling and drunk driving.

In October 2024, Lee Jin-ho confessed to illegal gambling on his personal SNS, saying, "I started playing on an Internet illegal gambling site by chance in 2020 and took on an unaffordable debt," and was later investigated by the police.

He also caused a stir for drunk driving. Lee Jin-ho was caught driving about 100km from Incheon City to Yangpyeong-gun, Gyeonggi-do, where his residence is located, drinking alcohol early on September 24 last year. At that time, Lee Jin-ho's blood alcohol level was reportedly at the level of license revocation.

Then, in December last year, he was listed as one of the top four large and frequent delinquents in insurance premiums. According to the National Health Insurance Corporation, Lee Jin-ho has been in arrears of 28.84 million won since April 2023.
