After the cast of ‘1N2D (1 Night 2 Days)‘ won the Entertainment ‘Daesang’ from KBS, they immediately called MC Kang Ho Dong to share the good news. The members tried calling several times, but Kang Ho Dong didn’t pick up.
In the end, Lee Soo Geun texted the MC on everyone’s behalf.
According to an insider close to Lee Soo Geun, Lee Soo Geun wrote, “We have been honored with the ‘Daesang’, thanks to you hyung. We want to share the glory with you,” among other things.
To the text messages, however, Kang Ho Dong replied right away writing back, “Do not ever grow weary or tired. I am glad to be able to share the honor with you.”
Even after the members were awarded the trophy, Lee Soo Geun remarked, “Big hyung, we will come visit you with this award,” giving the glory to their eldest member.
According to those close to MC Kang Ho Dong, the reason why he did not answer their calls was because he wanted the team to have all the glory. He watched the KBS Entertainment Awards on TV, and definitely wanted to be there with them. “He mostly stays at home, as far as we know. He has been unable to completely sort through his thoughts and his emotions, therefore cannot bring himself to answer calls from even his 1N2D members who are like blood brothers to him,” they said.
Meanwhile, ’1N2D’ is a variety program that began in 2007, and continues to receive high ratings to this day. The cast members of ’1N2D’ travel the nation to introduce the Korea’s most beautiful vacation spots as well as the best eats to the viewers, but is unfortunately coming to an end.
The last episode airs next February.
