[Asia Economy Reporter Han-ah Na] Actor Kim Kwang-kyu said "Jae-seok hyung, please control the apartment prices" in his acceptance speech at this year's SBS Entertainment Awards.

On the 19th, Kim Kwang-kyu received the Excellence Award in the Reality category at the '2020 SBS Entertainment Awards' and expressed his gratitude, saying, "Thank you to the viewers who stayed up late to watch 'Burning Youth,' and to overseas Koreans. Thanks to the production team, and the staff who worked hard in the cold."

He then said, "In these difficult times, Jae-seok hyung, please control the apartment prices." There was a moment of silence, and when the camera focused on Yoo Jae-seok, he appeared embarrassed.

The hosts of the day, Shin Dong-yup and Lee Seung-gi, tried to ease the situation by saying, "Because Yoo-neunim (Yoo Jae-seok + God) is believed to be able to solve anything."

Meanwhile, Kim Kwang-kyu recently appeared on a broadcast and expressed his frustration about not owning a home by mentioning 'house prices.'

In the MBC entertainment program 'I Live Alone' aired last October, he confessed, "I regret not buying an apartment despite the recommendations from (singer) Yuk Joong-wan and a real estate agent."

He said, "The apartment I was going to buy has more than doubled in price. Yuk Joong-wan, who bought an apartment in the same complex, became rich, but I am wasting my assets on monthly rent."

On the 8th, Kim Kwang-kyu also posted a photo of an apartment on Instagram with the caption, "Another name for an apartment? I should have bought it then."
