Comedian Moon Se-yoon opened up about the emotional wounds he received after appearing on variety shows during his early career.

On the 5th, a video titled "Intelligent Media Life (w. Moon Se-yoon)" was posted on the YouTube channel 'Lee Neok-sal'.

In the released video, Moon Se-yoon appeared as a guest and engaged in a conversation with Neok-sal about variety programs.

On that day, Moon Se-yoon recalled his past, saying, "I am speaking very seriously here, but I was on the verge of quitting variety shows. I was hurt too much." He added, "After doing only comedy, when I stepped into the world of variety shows, I was a rookie there. I found myself unable to speak properly."

He continued, "I viewed it as an opportunity. I thought that if I missed this chance, I would never get to appear on variety shows again. In the end, when your resolve weakens, you become vulnerable." He shared his insights gained from experience, stating, "Do not act out of haste. The faster you rise, the faster you fall. Climbing step by step is the best approach."

In particular, Moon Se-yoon revealed that his attempt to hide his nervousness had actually worked against him. He said, "You should not try to relax your nerves; if you are nervous, you should show it. I failed because I tried so hard not to let my tension show."

He further stated, "Group variety shows like 'Strong Heart' and 'Star Golden Bell,' where 15 to 20 celebrities come out and tear into each other, hurt me the most." He explained, "When I appeared on 'Strong Heart,' 2NE1 was there. I thought I was not scared and sat down, but I ended up drenched in sweat. People asked if I was okay, treating me almost like a patient." Moon Se-yoon recalled the moment by adding, "That made me even more nervous."

Moon Se-yoon advised, "(In any case) cases where someone becomes a star because they personally desire it are rarer than one might think. If I aim for it today and appear on YouTube declaring that I will become a star, it will absolutely not happen." He continued, "Word of mouth spreads, and then view counts follow. In this way, stars are created by the public. One must always believe that there will definitely be another opportunity next time."

In response to Neok-sal asking, "(But) didn't you take a break after 'Strong Heart'?", Moon Se-yoon replied, "Yes. I went to the military," eliciting laughter.
