"X's private life" featured actor Park Jae-hyun opening up about the financial hardships and the reason for his retirement he experienced while active with 'Surprise'.

On the 17th, the first broadcast of TV CHOSUN's new entertainment show 'X's private life' featured actor Park Jae-hyun confessing about his time with 'Surprise'.

Park Jae-hyun was the figure who had been active for 20 years in the 'Surprise' reenactment program and was called "Surprise Jang Dongkeon". He said that after marrying a wife 16 years younger, he gave up acting for his family.

In particular, he shocked viewers by revealing realistic earnings, saying, "The appearance fee per episode was less than 400,000 won, and monthly income was about 1.5 million won." He said, "That was the highest amount I ever received among actors," and "Because appearances were not consistent, it was difficult to cope when I couldn't earn money." He went on to say the reason for his retirement, "The income was insufficient to support my family, so I decided I could not continue acting."

He also met a colleague of 20 years and poured out his heart. Park Jae-hyun confessed, "The biggest reason was financial problems," and "I hated that my daughter was called 'the daughter of a reenactment actor.' I thought I was not an actor but a reenactment actor." The cast members expressed regret, saying, "A reenactment actor is an actor too."

Meanwhile, Park Jae-hyun, who is currently living alone after his divorce, also shared his honest feelings about child support. He said, "There were times when I couldn't pay child support once when the situation in Vietnam was bad," and "Of course I should have paid, and it hurt my heart. I'm grateful my ex-wife understood."

It left a deep impression as it conveyed the realistic worries and responsibilities hidden behind the name of an actor, and even his feelings toward his family.<
