Comedian Kim Jin Appears on 'Stand Up'... Returns to Broadcasting After 7 Years
[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Lim Juhyung] Comedian Kim Jin is returning to the broadcasting stage after more than 7 years through KBS 2TV's 'Stand Up'.
Kim Jin's agency Joy Cultures announced on the 20th, "Kim Jin will appear on the entertainment program 'Stand Up' airing on the 21st."
According to the agency, Kim Jin is expected to share episodes about the past struggles he faced due to 'tic disorder' on the show.
It is known that Kim Jin developed tic disorder after suffering severe bullying and physical abuse during middle school. He overcame this and passed the KBS comedian open recruitment 20th class.
The 20th class included a total of 18 comedians such as Shin Bongseon, Yoo Minsang, Yoon Hyungbin, Byun Gisoo, and Park Hwisu. Except for Kim Jin, the other classmates all stood out on broadcasts and were actively working, but Kim Jin had to leave the broadcasting stage without fulfilling his dreams due to his disorder.
Since then, Kim Jin has established his position by hosting various large and small events. Last year, he was recognized for his acting skills through his performance in the play 'Saranghae Eomma' (I Love You, Mom).
