"You Quiz on the Block" magician and imagination director Lee Eun-gyeol mentioned the difficult times he went through.
On the 29th broadcast of tvN "You Quiz on the Block" (hereafter "You Quiz"), Lee Eun-gyeol, who marked his 30th anniversary since debut, appeared. Lee Eun-gyeol said he learned stand-up comedy from comedian Kim Hyung-gon, and he remembered that Yu Jae-seok, who had come because performances were being held at the time, had also seen him, and he marveled at the astonishing, magical connection.
Lee Eun-gyeol said, "I was doing business with an older brother I trusted like family, and I trusted him enough to entrust him with my official seal. Later I saw that the revenue split was 1:9, and I had to be tied up for several years," which surprised Yu Jae-seok.
He said, "When I tried to just do performances, a certified mail notice would arrive, and my heart was heavy so I secluded myself for two years. Afterwards I enlisted in the military as a magic soldier and performed magic at all kinds of festivals. At that time my magic style changed," and he shared the backstory of how he escaped those difficult times and was reborn as a new Lee Eun-gyeol.
