Comedian Yoon Hyung-bin expressed his feelings after winning in his first-ever professional wrestling debut.

On the 10th, Yoon Hyung-bin faced off against Japanese professional wrestler Tajiri, a 'WWE Legend', at the 'Wrestle Nation: Project 3000' event organized by the Korean professional wrestling organization PWS.

In a match held in front of a sold-out audience of 3,000, an unprecedented record in the history of Korean professional wrestling, Yoon Hyung-bin made his presence felt in the ring with his victory.

Yoon Hyung-bin said, "More than anything, it was meaningful and enjoyable to show the match in front of young fans," adding, "My son and daughter came to cheer for me, and I was incredibly happy that they enjoyed the match so much."

Regarding facing the legendary wrestler Tajiri, who has performed in WWE and ECW, he praised, "From his entrance, the aura that dominated the stage, the creativity of his techniques, and the ability to captivate the audience were definitely exceptional."

Before the match officially began, Yoon Hyung-bin humorously remarked that trash-talking his opponent felt "as comfortable as being on the 'Gag Concert' stage." However, once the match started, he revealed that the indescribable tension and the overwhelming emotion of being in the ring with world-class wrestlers he had admired since childhood, like Tajiri and Samurai Del Sol, made him feel "like he was dreaming."

The match between Yoon Hyung-bin and Tajiri began as a one-on-one showdown, leading to a spectacular development with the intrusion of a villain group and the participation of other wrestlers. Yoon Hyung-bin actively attacked, attempting an armbar against Tajiri. The audience erupted in cheers at the thrilling spectacle.

Yoon Hyung-bin expressed deep gratitude to the 'Gup-sik-wang' team and 'PWS' members for creating such a stage in a country where professional wrestling is still in its infancy.

Yoon Hyung-bin also showed his determination regarding his activities as a professional wrestler, stating, "I am always ready to step back into the ring," and added, "If given the opportunity, I would like to create a comedian wrestling team," promising his next challenge.
