Mixed martial artist and broadcaster Choo Sung-hoon opened up about the financial burdens he faced during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Recently, a video featuring rapper Swings as a guest was posted on Choo Sung-hoon's YouTube channel.

On that day, while conversing with Swings, Choo said, "People need history to be interesting," adding, "Isn't my YouTube doing well right now? It will drop soon enough. If it keeps going well, there's no fun in it."

He recalled, "There were times when I had no work for three to four years. It was incredibly difficult then. That was during the COVID-19 pandemic. There wasn't a single job available."

He continued, "At that time, my family was living in Hawaii. Rent there is extremely expensive. I wondered how we could possibly pay it. Also, we had to send our child (Choo Sa-rang) to school, and I didn't know what to do."

While admitting, "I couldn't tell my wife. I should be the one paying for everything. With no work, it was so hard," he burst into hearty laughter.
