Comedian Lee Kyung-gyu was embroiled in health concerns, but his agency denied the allegations.

On the 12th, Lee Kyung-gyu's agency told StarNews regarding the YouTube appearance video where health concerns were raised, "He was just in poor condition during filming and has no major health issues. His current health status is fine."

Previously, Lee Kyung-gyu appeared on the YouTube channel 'God Kyung-gyu' and confessed to having undergone surgery due to complications from diabetes.

Lee Kyung-gyu stated, "The war with diabetes began five years ago," and revealed he was diagnosed with a pre-diabetic stage. He also shared his struggles, saying, "The number of foods I can eat has decreased significantly, making every meal stressful."

However, concerns about Lee Kyung-gyu's health arose based on his appearance in the video. His somewhat slurred speech and changed facial appearance compared to the past sparked public concern.

As health concerns surfaced, his agency directly denied them.

This is not the first time health concerns have arisen for Lee Kyung-gyu. Last year, he appeared on Jeong Hui-won (Prof.)'s YouTube channel and was reported to have experienced a myocardial infarction crisis, causing fans to worry.

At that time, Lee Kyung-gyu recalled his past neglect of health, saying, "Until my 50s, my limbs were fine. I never had health checkups until then," and added, "I drank to the point of blackouts twice a week."

He continued, "That's why I had a myocardial infarction. This part was blocked. The doctor said, 'How have you been living? It's a miracle.' There were small blood vessels on the side that saved me. The small blood vessels helped, so they inserted a stent."

Additionally, in 2024, he appeared on tvN's variety show 'You Quiz on the Block' and clarified rumors about brain hemorrhage and pre-symptoms of myocardial infarction caused by earlobe wrinkles. At that time, he stated, "I went to a hospital I know, met with a doctor, and even had an MRI test," and added, "When I came out of the room, they said I was perfectly fine."
