He also names his junior Im Woo-il as an ungrateful junior, sharing behind-the-scenes stories and selecting the top 5 in the entertainment industry boxing rankings, providing plenty of laughs.
The MBC ‘Radio Star’ (planned by Kang Young-sun / directed by Kim Myung-yeop, Hwang Yoon-sang, Byeon Da-hee) airing today (23rd) at 10:30 p.m. will be themed as a special episode featuring Im Won-hee, Lee Gi-chan, Lee Sang-jun, and Yoon Hyung-bin.
Having been active as a mixed martial arts athlete, Yoon Hyung-bin fought his retirement match last month against the Mukbang YouTuber Banzz, winning by TKO in 1 minute and 42 seconds of the first round. He shared his feelings, saying, "I was overwhelmed since it was a match I had prepared for four months," adding, "The biggest regret is that I threw a punch at Banzz and hit him again."
He also noted, "The ‘Banzz channel deletion pledge’ I threw out jokingly ended up being a bigger deal than I expected," revealing that Banzz actually deleted his channel, surprising everyone.
On that day’s broadcast, Yoon Hyung-bin revealed his chosen ‘Top 5 in the entertainment industry boxing rankings’, mentioning an unexpected figure in the top spot, stirring curiosity. Despite the disbelief and jeers from everyone, he firmly spoke of his role model, expressing his affection and raising curiosity.
Meanwhile, he mentions the special loyalty he showed towards his junior Im Woo-il. Yoon Hyung-bin said, "I couldn’t just ignore hearing that Im Woo-il was considering giving up comedy," sharing the behind-the-scenes of his tough times, and playfully expressed his disappointment, saying, "But he has never mentioned me on the show."
Yoon Hyung-bin also revealed the surprising behind-the-scenes that his ‘Wangbiho’ character was initially named ‘Sagulhyo’, sharing the reactions of his colleagues at that time and the reason behind the name change, bringing much laughter.
He further candidly discussed his failed business experiences such as ‘VR Café’ and ‘Meal Kit Business,’ confessing that "everything failed." Instead, he shared that he is now renewing his ‘Yoon Hyung-bin Small Theater’ into a ‘K-Performance Hall’ and is getting back on his feet, receiving applause for his efforts.
Yoon Hyung-bin’s sincere confessions and lively banter can be seen on ‘Radio Star’ airing tonight (23rd) at 10:30 p.m.
