Hello, I'm Kim Doo-young.

Some of you may already know and some of you may not know, but this evening, I left Korea with my family and started my immigration life in another country. Please support the beginning of the second act of life that I have dreamed of for a long time, and I and my family will live happily. I hope you all are always happy and healthy.




This year, after 20 years of broadcasting life, and facing today,

I wanted to live without a promise to return from the hot summer country to live a little slow and relaxed in order to escape the rapidly changing broadcasting production environment and rapidly consumed content flooding.

I've already given out spoilers on Instagram ID about where I'm going to immigrate. You may have been surprised by the sudden news, but I prepared little by little for my long-cherished life and finally left today.

People are asking me if I'm retiring or giving up being a comedian,

My answer is a challenge.

As soon as I arrive, I will continue to demonstrate my abilities by working in various fields such as YouTube and travel businesses that contain local adaptation life.

Leaving Korea doesn't mean I won't be a comedian.

Lastly, I would like to thank my family for supporting and supporting my hard decision, and I will live for my family as long as my life is attached.

Everyone, be happy.
