Broadcaster Jung Hyeong-don announced that he would resume selling donkatsu after 13 years, and has opened a donkatsu restaurant in Seongsu-dong.

On the 12th, historian Sim Yong-hwan posted a photo taken with Jung Hyeong-don.

Sim Yong-hwan wrote, "I attended the opening ceremony of my friend Jung Hyeong-don's 'Doni Donkatsu' today. The first branch opened in Seongsu-dong, and the menu is affordable yet substantial, which is really nice." He added, "Personally, I think the menu item combining stir-fried kimchi with donkatsu is absolutely amazing. Donkatsu eaten with tteokbokki is also good, and it was intriguing to see donkatsu in a black batter. Anyway, I feel proud seeing my friend working hard at life."

He further stated, "It has already been 10 years since our connection began. He is a person with a deep-feeling, shy, and unique personality. I sincerely support Doni's donkatsu business, which he has managed to establish in the entertainment industry dominated by those born around the 1970s."

In the released photos, Jung Hyeong-don draws attention with his bright demeanor at the donkatsu restaurant.

Previously, in April last year, Jung Hyeong-don announced that he would sell donkatsu again after 13 years. Jung Hyeong-don began selling 'Dolgo Dolga Doni Doni Donkatsu' through a home shopping channel and appears to have opened a physical store as well.

Earlier, in 2011, Jung Hyeong-don introduced 'Doni Doni Donkatsu,' which sparked a sell-out frenzy on home shopping channels and gained great popularity. Amid this, in 2013, Je Jo-eop-che (CEO) and others were indicted without detention on charges of falsely labeling the beef tenderloin content. Subsequently, as fines were finalized for Je Jo-eop-che (CEO) and others, controversy arose over the product, and the company also faced a crisis of insolvency. At the time, Jung Hyeong-don explained, "The issue stemmed from displaying weight without excluding moisture, and the relevant standards were not clear."

On a separate note, Jung Hyeong-don debuted as a KBS 17th-generation public recruitment comedian in 2002 and gained great love through MBC's 'Infinite Challenge.' He married writer Han Yu-ra in 2009 and has twin daughters.

Han Yu-ra and their two daughters lived in Hawaii, while Jung Hyeong-don led a life as an "osprey father" (a father living apart from his family). However, it is known that Han Yu-ra and their two daughters have recently returned to Korea and are staying there.
