Noh Hong-chul confesses to being assaulted in the military... “They treated me well after I held out for a month”
On the 17th, a video titled ‘Noh Hong-chul‘s luxury Yongsan house that can sleep 11 people is first revealed’ was uploaded to Noh Hong-chul’s YouTube channel.
On this day, Noh Hong-chul met his successor from his time in the military, fashion businessman Lee Min-wook, and recalled his military life, saying, “When I was in my 20s, many people doubted me, but I enlisted with an excellent physical grade. When I enlisted, the world I lived in was surprisingly different”.
Lee Min-wook said, “It was a unit where there were a lot of beatings. (Noh Hong-chul) testified that he served as an army military policeman with strict discipline.
Noh Hong-chul said that he was beaten badly once, and said, “They told me to write my name on my underwear, and I wrote ‘Handsome Man.’ I wanted to be Handsome. But when I took it out, my senior saw it. That‘s why I remember getting beaten up so much back then. It wasn’t that person‘s fault. I had to get beaten up.”
However, Noh Hong-chul said that his seniors acknowledged him as time passed. He said, “I was beaten up for a moment, and after about a month, the seniors treated me well. The people I met in the military were my benefactors,” expressing his gratitude.
He continued, “When I faced tight environments that I didn’t have to face because of my fault, I didn‘t lose myself, so wasn’t it more comfortable than my other comrades? After experiencing that, it was the same when I happened to work in the entertainment industry. When I came out, people said, ‘Broadcasting is low-quality,’, but thanks to the military, I‘ve already proven that I can show who I am. Thanks to the military, in a way, I’ve gained confidence in broadcasting,” he honestly confessed.
