In April 2018, Jung Chan-woo suspended broadcasting activities complaining of health problems such as panic disorder. At the time, the agency said that Jung Chan-woo had diabetes and tinnitus for a long time, and that he was diagnosed with panic disorder and chose to rest" he said.

Amid the six-year hiatus since then, an unexpected recent situation was detected in May. While Kim Ho-joong's alleged drunk hit-and-run has made the world noisy, the fact that Jung Chan-woo is the third largest shareholder of Kim Ho-joong's agency, Thought Entertainment, has been re-examined. The news was even more shocking because at the time, CEO Lee of Thought Entertainment and director Choi were accused of trying to cover up the alleged drunk hit-and-run by demanding false surrender from their managers. In addition, suspicions arose that he was investigated by the police as an entertainer who attended a drinking party at the time of Kim Ho-joong's accident, drawing more attention.



Thinking Entertainment said that Jung Chan-woo was present at the screen golf meeting with Kim Ho-joong on the day of the incident, but he returned home without accompanying him to dinner or an entertainment bar.
