Soccer player Kang Ji-yong in sudden death shock...Deleted the cast of the Divorce Conscious Camp



Amid the news of the sudden death of former soccer player Kang Ji-yong, the video of Kang Ji-yong's appearance 'Departure Camp' has been erased.

JTBC 'Departure Camp' made a video clip of Kang Ji-yong and his wife's appearance private after Kang Ji-yong's sad news was reported on the 23rd. In addition, some of the replay videos starring Kang Ji-yong and his wife have been deleted.

It is known that 'Departure Camp' is internally discussing the broadcast of Kang Ji-yong and his wife, and is carefully considering the future direction of broadcasting.




Kang Ji-yong passed away on the 22nd. The mortuary was set up at the funeral hall of Cheonan Hospital affiliated with Soonchunhyang University, and his wife and 3-year-old daughter were listed in Sangju.

Kang Ji Yong made his debut as a professional footballer after being drafted by the Pohang Steelers through the 2009 K League Draft.

Kang Ji-yong, who played for Pohang for three years, moved to Busan I'Park in 2012 and later retired in the 2022 season after playing for Bucheon FC, Gangwon FC, Incheon United, and Gimpo FC.




In February, he appeared on JTBC 'Departure Camp' to announce his status. Kang Ji-yong, who was working at a chemical manufacturing plant after retirement, revealed his conflict with his wife over financial issues. However, the two were applauded for dramatically reconciling and strengthening their affection for each other through the solutions provided by 'Departure Camp'.

However, viewers are also shocked by the sad news that was delivered two months after the broadcast. Attention is also focusing on what position 'Departure Camp' will express.

On the other hand, Kang Ji-yong's stamp will be observed at 6:30 a.m. on the 25th, and his burial site is Cheonan Memorial Park.
