Broadcaster Dex announced a temporary suspension of his YouTube channel activities.

On the 18th, a video titled "Taking a Break After 7 Years of YouTube Journey | Off-Dex with 95z" was released on the YouTube channel 'Dex101'. Dex met with YouTuber Mimiminu, who is his same age, and Chef Kwon Seong-jun to have a conversation.

That day, Dex said, "Although it's not quite accurate to say this is the last video for our channel, we will be taking a break for the time being. Internally, the decision has already been fully made," conveying the news of the activity suspension.

He continued, "I wanted to do this last one with friends rather than alone. It's not that I'm saying I'll never do this again; it's just a short break. I thought I wouldn't receive much comfort if I were alone, so I called my friends," and explained, "This video is like a pause mark."

Dex stated, "I started YouTube right after my discharge in 2020, and it's already my sixth year. It's a bit regretful to take a break this time. The collaboration with the (YouTube) team this year went well, and I was having the most fun while doing YouTube," he revealed.

However, he added, "There are several reasons for taking a break. There are personal reasons, and there are also issues with my condition. I thought it was right to take a short break to show a better side. It might feel sudden," he said.

He also said, "This is the first time I'm taking such a long break, so I am afraid," and clarified, "What is certain is that it doesn't seem like I will return before the end of this year."

Dex remarked, "In this industry, you can be forgotten if you take a break for just a month or two, so this is a significant decision. The time I spent worrying was not long. I had a firm conviction that this is what I should do. I want to do things I enjoy, not things I'm chased into doing. Since my channel is meant to be a place where I do what I want freely, if I can't maintain that, I believe it's right not to do YouTube," he added.

He said, "I'm not stopping to do something specific, but when thinking about this profession and the future, I need to make choices and focus. Actually, when I coldly assessed where I am now, I felt my position was somewhat ambiguous. When considering which category I am strong in, I have my foot in many fields. I thought this year was the timing to focus more on one area," he clarified.
