In 'Finding Homes,' martial arts star Choo Sung Hoon revealed a shocking past while visiting his hometown of Osaka.
On the 22nd, Choo Sung Hoon appeared on the MBC entertainment program 'Finding Homes.'
For the first time in the program's history, a local visit was conducted in Osaka, Japan. This Osaka episode took place in Choo Sung Hoon's hometown, where he spent his childhood, marking a new attempt at a local visit for global natives.
While exploring the quiet neighborhood, Choo Sung Hoon introduced Korea Town in Ikunoku, Osaka, saying, "This area has many Korean residents." He then visited his childhood neighborhood where he was born 45 years ago and expressed heartfelt thoughts, stating, "I am reconnecting with my roots. This memory is my driving force." It was also surprising to find that the kindergarten he attended 50 years ago still remains.
However, the mood changed with the following question. When asked if he kept in touch with childhood friends, Choo Sung Hoon shockingly confessed, "There are some who have died. A few went into the Yakuza (Japanese organized crime)." This surprised the cast. When an astonished Joo Woo-jae asked, "Is that true?" Choo Sung Hoon replied, "If a fight breaks out in that neighborhood, you die there (in the Yakuza)," revealing the harsh realities of his childhood.
Meanwhile, Choo Sung Hoon is actively continuing his work in various fields, including family YouTube and broadcast activities.
