'Knowing Brother's side'Illegal Gambling' Lee Jin-ho gets off, editing the filming as much as possible'
Comedian Lee Jin-ho, who confessed to illegal gambling, will get off JTBC Knowing Brother.

On the 14th 'Knowing Bros' official said "Lee Jin-ho will leave this week's recording. We will edit and broadcast the amount that has already been filmed as much as possible."

Lee Jin-ho joined 'Knowing Brother' on October 30, 2021, but he left the program after three years due to illegal gambling.

Earlier on the day, Lee Jin-ho confessed to illegal gambling on his SNS, revealing that this created a debt that was difficult to handle.

Lee Jin-ho confessed, "'In 2020, by chance, I started playing on illegal gambling sites on the Internet, and I ended up with a debt that I couldn't afford.'"

I came to my senses late and was able to hit my hand in gambling, but I had already received financial help from many people.

Lee Jin-ho said, "When I got a call from an unknown number, would it be a debt-related call? My heart was racing, and I felt like I was being beaten every day by the fear of when this would be known to the world"I had to work so I could repay my debt a little bit, so wouldn't that be my own greed?" I couldn't make a choice right away."

In the meantime, Lee Jin-ho apologized, saying, `I'm constantly paying back the money every month, and I'm going to pay all this debt on my own until I die.'" The police investigation will also be faithfully conducted and I will pay for my fault."

Since then, not only celebrity acquaintances such as BTS Jimin, Lee Soo-geun, and Ha Sung-woon, but also executives, PDs, and writers of some broadcasters have been known to have suffered financial damage from Lee Jin-ho.
