Ilta instructor Jeon Han-gil appeared as a guest on JTBC's 'Jandangpo' broadcast on the 8th.
On this day, Jeon Han-gil said, "It's not good to become famous and sell your face. The best thing is to make a lot of money without selling your face."
At the same time, he revealed the diary he wrote. In 2011, I wrote in my diary, ‘Please don’t go around borrowing money. It was written, ‘Let’s risk our lives to sell books.’ Jeon Han-gil said, "I started as an instructor in 1999 and became a star CSAT instructor in 2001. I continued to excel from 2001 to 2004, and the following year, I started running an academy and publishing company with the money I earned."
He then confessed, "I thought about trying to become a businessman, but I went bankrupt and lived as a person with bad credit for 10 years. The scale of the academy was so large that after paying it all off, the remaining debt was 2.5 billion won."
When Tak Jae-hoon asked if there was ever a risk of divorce, Jeon Han-gil replied, "Even if I tried to divorce, I couldn't. I took out a loan from my wife's workplace, and my child was in elementary school at the time."
Afterwards, Jeon Han-gil returned to online lectures on Korean history and paid off the remaining debt. Jeon Han-gil surprised people by saying, “The comprehensive income tax paid this year is 1.5 billion won. National health insurance premiums are 52 million won.”
Jeon Han-gil revealed that he received the model taxpayer award, saying, “The most I paid in taxes was 2.5 billion won.”
