Comedian-turned-dentist Kim Young-sam shared his recent activities in the United States after clarifying his complaint.

On the 5th, Kim Young-sam posted a video of his attendance at the 4th K-Dental Conference on his social media.

The video shows a large crowd clapping and greeting each other warmly.

Regarding this, Kim Young-sam stated, "I had a great time with Korean dentists from all over the world gathered in Texas, and now I'm heading back to Korea. Both the lecture and the event were well-received."

He continued, "I created a stage for a failed comedian myself and am now hosting as MC. Let's meet in May next year in Toronto, Canada."

Last month, Kim Young-sam posted a photo of the airplane seat he was on, writing, "How can anyone travel to the United States in such a cramped space? Even my high school study room was wider than this."

When some took the matter seriously, Kim Young-sam eventually explained the situation: "I joked about the first-class seat being narrow. How unfunny must a comedian be for a joke to be reported as a serious news story? It's not the reporters' fault; it's the fault of an unfunny comedian."

Meanwhile, Kim Young-sam debuted as a 16th-generation KBS comedian in 2001. He later earned a doctoral degree in dentistry from Jeonbuk National University's graduate school and transitioned to becoming a dentist.
