A Night of Laughter and Revelations on Radio Star
Comedian Yoon Hyung-bin is set to make a memorable appearance on MBC’s Radio Star, where he will share exclusive behind-the-scenes stories from his recent retirement from a high-stakes match against a judo elite YouTuber, Banzz. The episode, scheduled to air at 10:30 p.m. on Wednesday (23rd), promises to be packed with humor, heartfelt confessions, and surprising revelations. Alongside Yoon, the show will feature Lim Won-hee, Lee Ki-chan, and Lee Sang-joon as part of its special "Sweet Brother" segment.
Yoon, who has long been active in mixed martial arts, recently retired after a dramatic victory over Banzz. The match, which ended in a TKO just 1 minute and 42 seconds into the first round, was one that Yoon had prepared for over four months. His emotional reflection on the experience included a candid admission: “The most regrettable thing is that I hit Banzz one more time.” This statement not only highlights the intensity of the match but also shows Yoon’s honesty and vulnerability.
In addition to the fight, Yoon revealed how the “Vanz channel deletion pledge” unexpectedly gained more attention than he anticipated. The real-life reaction from Banzz, who actually deleted his channel, left everyone in shock. The comedian shared this story with a mix of humor and surprise, further adding to the entertainment value of the episode.
Yoon also took the opportunity to unveil his personal “Top 5 of the Fist Rankings in the Entertainment World,” a list that includes some unexpected names. One of the most intriguing points he raised was his admiration for a particular individual despite widespread ridicule. He mentioned that he showed affection by talking about his role model, sparking curiosity among the audience.
Another highlight of the episode involves Yoon’s relationship with his junior, Lim Woo-il. Yoon shared a touching story about how he felt compelled to intervene when he heard that Lim was considering giving up on his comedy career. Despite the difficult times they both faced, Lim never spoke about Yoon on the show, which made Yoon feel grateful and proud of his junior.
Yoon also shared an amusing behind-the-scenes story regarding the character “Wang Bi-ho,” which was initially named “Sagulhyo.” He recounted the reactions of his colleagues at the time and explained the reason for the name change, which led to laughter and discussion during the show.
In addition to his comedic and athletic endeavors, Yoon reflected on his failed business ventures, including a VR café and a Milkit Business. He humorously admitted, “It’s all ruined,” but expressed gratitude for the support he has received after reviving his “Yoon Hyung-bin Small Theater” into the “K-Performance Hall.”
The episode promises to be a blend of humor, nostalgia, and heartfelt moments, showcasing Yoon’s authenticity and charisma. Fans can catch the full episode of Radio Star at 10:30 p.m. on Wednesday (23rd).
