Meanwhile, Gary married a non-celebrity woman 10 years younger in 2017 and has a son, Hao. Hao was born in 2017 and is currently 6 years old, and entered elementary school last year.

Gary, along with his son Hao, appeared on KBS2 entertainment show 『Superman is Back』 and received a lot of love in the past.

In addition, when he briefly appeared on 'Shudol' in 2020, he appeared on "Shudol" and had been on the show for more than 20 years, so it seemed like he was widowed. I got married during the break, and when I had a baby, I naturally took paternity leave." So the break got longer, but I wasn't unhappy at all during the break", he also said.




His last broadcast activity was Mnet 'Astitak Game', which aired in 2022.
