Comedian Kim Won-hoon revealed that he experienced depression after the cancellation of 'Gag Concert'.

On the broadcast of tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block' aired on the 1st, Kim Won-hoon appeared as a guest.

On that day, Kim Won-hoon said, "I had a long period of being unknown. I debuted in 2015 and could only do two segments for almost three years. Since there were no segments that passed, I felt like I had no talent. I often thought, 'I shouldn't have done it'."

Kim Won-hoon stated that after the cancellation of 'Gag Concert', he was severely affected by depression. He said, "There was a period when I only stayed at home. For about 3 to 4 months. I always kept the blinds down and spent my time lying in bed looking at my phone or playing computer games."

He continued, "Later, my mother told me that she was afraid to go home if my car was in the underground parking lot. She was worried that I might feel uncomfortable or be sensitive. But at that time, I didn't have the capacity to understand my mother's feelings. I was just wasting time at home until Jo Jin-se got me out of that situation."

Meanwhile, 'You Quiz on the Block' airs every Wednesday at 8:45 PM.
