"I am a person who loves comedy. I wanted to create a comedy channel after 'Gag Concert' and 'Looking for Laughter' were abolished, so I jumped into the YouTube market. By chance, the 'Let's Eat' corner exploded. 'Hyeonta' came in even though it wasn't even. So, while taking a break, I researched another corner, but the number of views was too low. The YouTube algorithm recognized us as a mukbang channel, so it was useless to try anything else. So, from then on, 'Let's Eat' 'Let's eat alone', 'Let's eat together' and 'Let's eat beans' series."

On the 25th, an interview with Kkon Dae-hee was held at the JDB Entertainment building located in Mapo-gu, Seoul. As of 9:30 pm on the 28th, Kkondaehee enjoyed the joy of surpassing 1 million subscribers.

Comedians who heard the news of the abolition of KBS 'Gag Concert', which had been a public comedy scene for 21 years, could not hide their futility. In particular, it must have been a big shock to Kim Dae-hee, who is living proof of 'GagCon'. Kim Dae-hee, who hoped for the revival of comedians more than anyone else, set a new stage with 'Kkondae-hee' after long contemplation.

Kkondaehee created a YouTube version of 'GagCon' under the description of 'Kkondaehee Channel to experience the culture of young people'. Kkondaehee, who is loved by all generations from teens to 7th to 80th, said, "I have no regrets even if I die now. Thanks to Jang Dong-min and Shin Bong-seon, this channel exploded. I am so grateful."

Kkondaehee's first start was with the 'GagCon' family, but as the channel went viral, many stars, including idols and actors, are looking for it first. Kkon Dae-hee said, "I tend to make guests feel comfortable. They say there is no need to force a laugh before filming. Because we do it 100% ad-libbed, sometimes there are performers who feel burdened, but they think they're here for a meal and lead them to talk comfortably." told

He added, “There were celebrities who didn’t know about the gag side. But it was better not to know at all. I didn’t look for it in advance. "he explained.

However, the food selection is prepared with what the guest wants to eat and filmed. Kkondae-hee said, "It's similar to wanting to eat normally and sponsorship (PPL) coming in. Even if it's different, everyone enjoys it." I was going to give it to you,” he said with a laugh.

Kkondaehee is eating and communicating with new guests every week. Who would you like to meet as a guest? Kkondae-hee expressed his fan spirit, saying, "I want to invite senior Yoo Jae-seok whom I respect. He is a symbolic figure in the Korean gag world. I want to be congratulated by senior Yoo Jae-seok (breaking 1 million people)."

He continued, "When a male guest comes, they always order only Chinese food. Usually, they serve jajangmyeon and sweet and sour pork, but if Yoo Jae-suk senior comes, he will order a special palbochae."

He confessed, "Among the actors, I want to try the 'Let's Eat' corner with Ma Dong-seok and Lee Gyeong-yeong. Especially, I want to have a fight with Ma Dong-seok. I also used my fists when I was young." However, he immediately said, "If I do something wrong, my organs may be stolen. I will cancel it," making the scene a sea of laughter.

Then, what is Kkondaehee's promise of 1 million subscribers? He showed a frightened appearance, saying, "I promised 1 million people with my senior YouTuber Sim Eutteum. He told me to do 1,000 squats. I'm already worried because my knees are bad."

He added, “People say that if you do 1000 squats, you will get ‘rhabdomyolysis’ (a disease that causes various problems due to substances caused by the destruction of skeletal muscle).

Kkondae-hee, who was already scared, but did not forget to thank the benefactors who helped 'increase' the number of subscribers. He said, “The only guest on Bobmukja with more than 10 million views is Shin Bong-seon. Out of gratitude, I gave him a 30-year-old Valentine.
