In the 1980s and 1990s, Jeong Jae-hwan, who was called the 'national MC' alongside Sim Hyung-rae, Im Ha-ryong, and Joo Byung-jin for his handsome appearance and neat speaking skills while hosting the flagship program "Youth March", suddenly disappeared from broadcasting at some point.
Regarding the reason for his sudden disappearance, Jeong Jae-hwan confessed, "I didn't know our language well. The language of broadcasting needs to be precise, but I started studying our language late."
At the age of forty, he entered Sungkyunkwan University and devoted himself to his studies, later transforming into a professor who teaches Hangul while standing at the lectern for ten years. He quietly disappeared by choosing academia over broadcasting.
Having gone from MC to comedian to professor... Jeong Jae-hwan, now active as a "guardian of our language," noted, "Our language is truly precious," while sharing his recent activities as a Hangul activist. He added, "I naturally distanced myself from broadcasting," explaining the reason for his busy life.
