Choi Eun-kyung, an announcer-turned-producer, appeared on TV Chosun 'Hae Young-man's Baekban Travel', which aired on the 14th.
Heo Young-man mentioned Choi Eun-kyung's departure from 'Dongchimi' these days.
Choi Eun-kyung has been active with Park Soo-hong for 13 years as the master of 'Dongchimi' since 2012, but was notified of her departure in March due to reasons such as program reorganization. Suspicions were raised that the two were forced to get off the train without saying goodbye.
In response, Choi Eun-kyung said, `I think all my 40s went there. I've worked so hard that I don't have any regrets. "Isn't there something like that when a person works too hard. I just want to clap while saying, 'I compliment myself'" he said.
Choi Eun-kyung said "The pace of life ran only forward for 10 years, but I couldn't do it because I did that. Now I only do YouTube that I'm doing," he said, adding that he's taking it easy.
Choi Eun-kyung was born in Masan and spent her school days in Masan. Choi Eun-kyung, a graduate of Ewha Womans University's English education department, said "It wasn't that I couldn't study." I didn't have a dream until I graduated from college. I went to the College of Education, so I could do it if I wanted to become an English teacher. But the teaching job was so out of place that I thought only special, doll-like people could do it on TV. I've never dreamed of it in my life. But I found a job so suddenly."
Choi Eun-kyung, a famous sports enthusiast, said, `I don't go on a diet because I'm lazy. In the past, I thought I had to lose more weight, but now I don't look at the numbers at all, I only look at the muscle mass."

Choi Eun-kyung also revealed the secret behind the announcer exam. Choi Eun-kyung thought "I'm not going to do it if it falls" and got stuck when she saw it for the last time" he recalled. In response, Heo Young-man asked "Have you tried anchoring?" but Choi Eun-kyung confessed "I haven't been able to do that."
Choi Eun-kyung, who has turned into a freelance MC since leaving the company in 2002, has been active. Choi Eun-kyung said, `I wanted to be a newsman because he was cool, but how can no one make me do it. I have to put someone (in the anchor seat), but even though I was in front of him, he said that there was no one, so he put someone else on the seat.
Choi Eun-kyung's mother is a folk painting writer. Choi Eun-kyung even held an exhibition at the age of 77 to support her mother's dream of finding the talent of folk paintings when she was over 70. Choi Eun-kyung said "I always say 'If my mother is born as my daughter, I want to let her study art at a good place and send her to college."
