Korean entertainer HaHa candidly confessed about his past before meeting Yoo Jae-suk.
On the 18th, the YouTube channel 'Anything Goes' released an episode titled "Day Drinking EP.93."
In the video, HaHa shared a heartfelt conversation with Shin Ki-ru over a meal of spicy beef stew, revealing his past openly.
He admitted, "I was a regular at nightclubs and easily tempted," acknowledging both false and true rumors about his troubled past.
HaHa continued, "I was a person full of anger and negativity, often blaming myself," and shared how meeting Yoo Jae-suk changed him.
He said, "I met Yoo Jae-suk when I was at my most lost," recalling Yoo's words, "I've never met someone as disobedient yet loyal as you."
HaHa expressed gratitude, saying, "If it weren't for him, I might have ended up in a bad place."
He emphasized, "It's not because I'm inherently moral that I live this way now. It's because I've gained popularity and have more to protect. Who you have around you is crucial."
Regarding negative comments about "leeching off Yoo Jae-suk," HaHa remarked, "The hate comments are almost amusing now. If it were true, I'd be quite something. Who dares to leech off Yoo Jae-suk?"
Yoo Jae-suk is "someone who loves me more than anyone," HaHa conveyed, expressing that Yoo is more than just a colleague.
Last December, HaHa appeared on MBC's 'Hangout with Yoo?' and described Yoo Jae-suk as "not an enemy but a mountain to overcome."
HaHa also addressed critics calling him a "mosquito" or "leech," saying, "Not everyone can be Yoo Jae-suk or Park Myung-soo. I have a role to play, and I just haven't shown it all yet."
