Shin Jung-hwan, serial killers Kang Ho-soon and Yoo Young-chul, demanded a photo of the detention center's motives



Shin Jung-hwan confessed that he met with serial killer Kang Ho-soon when he was imprisoned in the detention center.

On March 31, the YouTube channel 'Fix Your Channel' posted a video titled 'Top Stars Ep.6' I Met at the Casino.

In the released video, Shin Jung-hwan brought up the story of when he was arrested for illegal gambling in the past.




"There's something I can't forget for 16 years."Shin Jung-hwan, who uttered a rhyme "There are times when he releases him to exercise". One day, I kept calling someone from behind and saw that the name tag was red." A red name tag means a death row.

Shin Jung-hwan asked if there was a picture of him saying he would draw a picture. I told the oldest prison officer that the death row was Kang Ho-soon. I got goosebumps from the ankle bone to the tip of my head. I kept asking for pictures, so I didn't even go out for exercise. I asked the food distributor and he said that there was a pencil-painted portrait of celebrities on the whole wall in the room. I was going to draw my picture, too. Even now, his face comes to mind once a night. Yoo Young-chul was also there at that time."

Both KBS and MBC put Shin on the list of suspended entertainers. In response, Shin Jung-hwan claimed that he was hospitalized with dengue fever and could not return home, but the fact that the photo was fabricated was found to have aroused antipathy from the whole nation.
