Former national team goalkeeper Kim Young-kwang appears on Radio Star and reveals a bold ambition to become a variety entertainer and enjoy a second heyday after retirement. From an unbelievable promotional anecdote in which he swept up YouTube subscribers even in a dangerous situation after a car accident to school-day episodes when he even received love calls from the fighting circles, he is expected to burst with entertainment potential.
On the night of the 22nd at 10:30 p.m., MBC's Radio Star (planned by Chey Yoon-chung / directed by Yoon Hye-jin, Hwang Yoon-sang, Byun Da-hee) will be staged as the "Now dry your tears" special, bringing together Kim Jung-min, Kim Young-kwang, Lee Seung-woo and Jung Seung-hwan in one place to deliver a bomb of laughs to home viewers.
At a recent recording, Kim Young-kwang reported that he has recently risen as a new blue chip in the variety world after retirement. In particular, he proudly brought to the studio a promotional fan that fans had made for him, and he threw a solemn entertainment declaration, saying, "Call me on the show anytime," adding, "I am prepared to die."
Kim Young-kwang, who originally had no intention of broadcasting after retirement, said he happened to appear on a YouTube channel and was just having fun laughing and talking, but the very next day he saw a hefty appearance fee posted in his bank account and felt a thrilling adrenaline rush. Recounting the moment, he recalled, "Ah, this is my path," saying the entertainment god descended on him, a vivid moment that provoked laughter.
Then Kim Young-kwang's self-sacrificing promotional method to protect 100,000 subscribers was revealed, turning the studio upside down. Even at the tense moment while negotiating a settlement after a car accident, he slyly pulled out his usual YouTube business card and urged not only the other driver but also the family riding in the car to subscribe, an unbelievable anecdote that made the set burst into laughter.
Additionally, he surprised everyone with a shocking confession that since middle school his consummate impressionist visuals drew chilly scouting offers not only from the football world but even from the fighting circles (?), and contrary to his fierce appearance, he was the "Sunchon righteous thief" who could not stand by when he saw injustice and would not tolerate those who bullied weaker friends. Warm testimonies from actual classmates proving this were also revealed, adding to the heartwarming atmosphere.
Meanwhile, Kim Young-kwang drew attention by complaining about a serious "goalkeeper occupational habit" that still troubles him after retirement: instinctively snatching a spoon dropped by someone next to him in a restaurant before it hits the floor, and his hands going first to every object that appears in his field of vision.
In particular, he said, "A national team goalkeeper never closes his eyes even when the ball is flying at his face," showing strong pride in his dynamic visual acuity. He even boasted that he can open his eyes wide underwater, drawing strong skepticism from the MCs, and ultimately an emergency "no blinking challenge" was launched at the scene over pride. The result of Kim Young-kwang's tearful entertainment spirit, which turned the recording studio into an instant water world and a "water bomb" festival while trying to protect the goalkeeper's honor, is eagerly anticipated.
