Broadcaster Shin Jeong-hwan reflected on his past struggles and shared updates about the chicken galbi restaurant he currently operates.

On the 15th, a video titled "Shin Jeong-hwan and Tak Jae-hoon's Human Story" was released on the YouTube channel 'Human Story'.

In the video, Shin Jeong-hwan recalled his late twenties, saying, "What did I know? I couldn't even distinguish between bad people and good people, yet I met and hung out with them."

He continued, "I thought broadcasting was a permanent career. I thought I'd just keep earning well, so I partied recklessly without any goals. I had no specific targets. I thought, 'This is how I'll live forever,' but now I'm over 50 years old."

That day, Shin Jeong-hwan invited Tak Jae-hoon, with whom he previously collaborated on Country Kkoko, to his chicken galbi restaurant. He expressed gratitude, saying, "I've never told anyone to come just for a meal, but he happily agreed to visit."

Shin Jeong-hwan also revealed that he is personally involved in running the store. He explained, "I do 13 hours of live streaming and then sleep for three hours. Some people say they've visited eight times to eat but never saw me, but I'm often here."

He added, "I handle serving, take orders, pour drinks, and even guide parking. I personally attend to customers every day."

He also addressed misunderstandings surrounding his high sales figures. Shin Jeong-hwan said, "After the story about '100 million won in sales' became known, people around me assumed I was making a huge amount of money after appearing on TV."

He continued, "From renovation costs to employee salaries, training fees, and ingredient expenses, there are too many expenditures. Plus, since it's in Seoul, the rent isn't cheap either. It's still far from settled. I haven't received a single won in settlement."

He added, "Fortunately, we're recording high sales, but we keep reinvesting everything," emphasizing that there is a significant difference between visible revenue and actual profit.
