Actor Jin Tae-hyun made his debut as a marathon commentator.
On the 21st, Jin Tae-hyun said, "Everyone, I made my debut as a marathon commentator. I'm an actor, entertainer, writer, athlete and a KBS certified guest commentator. My occupations keep increasing."
Jin Tae-hyun participated as a commentator in the marathon broadcast held at KBS that day. Wearing a white shirt and sitting between the caster and the commentator, Jin Tae-hyun said, "I love sports so much. I can commentate on soccer, basketball and baseball," and sent out a love call.
Jin Tae-hyun is a well-known runner in the entertainment industry. Jin Tae-hyun, who completed his first marathon in 4 hours and 59 minutes, entered the 3-hour and 10-minute range just two years after starting marathons.
In particular, Jin Tae-hyun said he heads to the training ground every dawn with a bag and a small cooler, and that he did not shy away from training camps not only at familiar places such as Hanam, Namsan, Banpo and Olympic Park but also in Hoenggye, Gangwon Province and Aewol, Jeju Island, saying that marathon became part of his life beyond a simple hobby, just as it is said that it takes three years to become a marathoner unless one is a born athlete.
After cancer surgery, Jin Tae-hyun regained his health through running and recently received much support as he reported successfully completing his first race.
Meanwhile, Jin Tae-hyun married actress Park Si-eun in 2015.
