Actor Bong Tae-kyu revealed the story of how he was cut from being a radio DJ after just 5 months.

On the broadcast of MBC's 'Radio Star' on the 1st, Bong Tae-kyu, Ok Ja-yeon, Song Eun-i, Park So-ra, and Hwang Jung-hye appeared as guests.

On that day, Bong Tae-kyu mentioned that he used to host a radio show on MBC, saying, "The radio review was conservative. It was a time of youthful vigor, and since it was late-night radio, I did whatever I wanted. Then I received a warning. I read that on air. After that, I said 'Just sleep,'" surprising everyone.

Bong Tae-kyu ended up leaving as a DJ in just 5 months, the shortest period in MBC radio history. Kim Gu-ra was shocked, saying, "The basic duration for a radio DJ is 6 months. 5 months is very unusual."

Meanwhile, 'Radio Star' airs every Wednesday at 10:30 PM.
