Former baseball player and broadcaster Kang Byung-kyu mentioned his income during his immense heyday.
In the video, Kang Byung-kyu said about his income during his heyday, `I think I made a lot. I think the maximum amount recorded in the bank account alone exceeded 30 billion won due to the money earned from the MC appearance, advertising event expenses, and business, which surprised everyone.
He said "The cost per episode was over 10 million won. Since KBS is a public broadcaster, it received about 5 to 6 million won when it was the MC of 'Vitamin' 17 years ago. Yoo Jae-seok, Kang Ho-dong, and Shin Dong-yeop will receive between 30 and 40 million won per episode, he said.
In response, Shin Jung-hwan "I had a low income when I was a country coco." Even if I received the event fee, I had to share half and give it to the company, so I couldn't earn much. He confessed that he received 30 million won for the event 15 years ago, saying, "He is much worse than a single person like Byeong-gyu."
Earlier in 2023, Kang Byung-kyu appeared on the YouTube channel 'Betzangi Entertainment's 'Taiwan Gods of the Era' and confessed that he made 30 billion won from celebrity activities, but eventually collapsed.
"My lifetime goal as a player was to raise 100 million won," he said. When my big brother-in-law played baseball, I made him take out a loan of 50 million won each under my name. I did business with it, but the IMF went bankrupt. I couldn't pay off my debts until I retired. Then came an unexpected proposal from the entertainment industry. The entertainment industry paid off all the debts that it had not paid for 10 years in a month. Recalling the days when the goal was 100 million, he made 1 billion, 5 billion, and 10 billion before he knew it, "I said I would immigrate if I made 30 billion, but I made 30 billion, so I got the magic that the elderly say." I really want to turn it around"I regret it.
Kang Byeong-gyu said, `I saw gambling as a game. He fought with people who had nuclear bombs with a gun because he thought he would go to casinos and suppress these colorful and cool things. I like that kind of game, but after a while, I heard it's an addiction." He confessed that he lost 30 billion won from gambling.
