Comedian Yoon Hyung-bin revealed that he lost over 2 billion won due to numerous business failures.
On the 23rd, MBC’s ‘Radio Star’ featured guests Im Won-hee, Lee Gi-chan, Lee Sang-jun, and Yoon Hyung-bin.
On that day, Yoon Hyung-bin surprised everyone by saying, “I have failed in every business I touched. I think I lost over 2 billion won.”
Yoon Hyung-bin said, “The most heartbreaking thing was closing the Yoon Hyung-bin Theater after about 15 years. COVID-19 was a direct hit.” He continued, “During the COVID-19 period, I had to decide whether to keep the theater open or not. Even when I tried various methods while staying holed up, I was losing about 20 to 30 million won every month. It was a loss whether I kept it open or closed it.”
He added, “Since I was always frowning, my juniors would come and say, ‘It’s tough, but can you not close the theater?’ I told them, ‘I will somehow keep it going, so you just focus on performing.’ That’s when I started going out to earn money. I also did video production and held events via Zoom. I managed to endure until COVID-19 passed.”
Meanwhile, ‘Radio Star’ airs every Wednesday at 10:30 PM.
