It is through MBN’s ‘Fight with God’, which will be aired for the first time on the 16th. Jo Young-nam will appear as the first guest on this day and will reveal a secret story that has not been known until now.

In the broadcast, Jo Young-nam brings up the controversial anecdote again for his remarks about his ex-wife, actress Yoon Yeo-jeong. At that time, Yeo-jeong Yoon won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role in the movie ‘Minari’, and in an interview with a media outlet, she said, “The best shot against a cheating man, revenge. The best revenge.” To this, Youngnam Jo said, “It was an American joke. how close are you Isn’t it fun?” he asked, saying he never thought that it could be controversial. He added, “It was an expression of praise for Yun Yeo-jeong’s hard work. He was the first Korean actor to win the award and a great national pride. It didn’t seem like me to celebrate normally and quietly. And I felt like I had the best revenge for having cheated on myself.”

In response to the cold reaction of the public, which was different from the intention, he said, “After the interview, I suffered a lot of malicious comments for a while. There was a lot of swearing, and even the scheduled painting exhibition was canceled.”

‘Fight with God’ is a talk show that explains the truth of ‘life’, picked up by 3MCs Gura Kim, Kyungwan Do, and Kwanghee. The first broadcast will be at 9:50 pm on Sunday, the 16th.
