Broadcaster Yeom Kyung-hwan made a surprise retirement announcement.

Ji Sang-ryul and Yeom Kyung-hwan appeared as guests in the video released on Shin Dong-hyeop's YouTube channel 'Salty Han-hyung' on June 30.

Yeom Kyung-hwan came right after selling the frying pan. Shin Dong-yup and I are glad to receive the first award in more than 30 years."




Yeom Kyung-hwan is called the `prince of the home shopping world.' He appears on about 100 home shopping channels a month and three to four a day. I do it all with my own hands without a manager or coordinator. Home shopping is a live broadcast and I rarely drink because I have to prepare the next day. I sold frying pans and olive oil again today." The annual sales he recorded through home shopping are about 5 billion won. Ji Sang-ryul "You're Um Hong-gil in home shopping. I hit the top. You can earn 5 billion won each," and Yeom Kyung-hwan said " (Shin Dong-yeop). I think I earned more this year. Let's get a slap in the face with a bundle of money."

Yeom Kyung-hwan also revealed why he returned to Korea after organizing his life in Vietnam. He had a great success while running a restaurant in Vietnam, but when he saw his wife being hit by a drunk, he organized his mind. Yeom Kyung-hwan ran a large Japanese restaurant in Vietnam. I heard that an intoxicated Korean citizen slapped his wife in the face. I felt so sorry for my wife. My wife asked me to go back to Korea because she seemed to be having a hard time. I thought I shouldn't do this to my family. My wife and children are in Vietnam because of my greed, and I spent my time going back and forth, but I thought I should go back to Korea and concentrate on broadcasting."

Yeom Kyung-hwan did not answer the phone because he thought the phone call for "Salty Brother" was voice phishing. "I watch home shopping and study. I don't watch anything else. Why do I watch variety shows. No matter where you call me, I don't go out. SBS KBS MBC JTBC MBN Channel A tvN Entertainment Director, listen. It's the age of YouTube. "The fact that the ratings keep falling means that everything has been transferred to YouTube..." he announced his retirement. Ji Sang-ryul "This is your posthumous work. In favor of retirement", Yeom Kyung-hwan drove "today drunk. I'm sorry. Please sing it for me. My time has never come. Please leave it up to me,' he said, reversing his retirement.
