Heo Kyung-hwan Shocked by Massive Credit Card Bill on 'Island Heroes'

Comedian Heo Kyung-hwan was left in disbelief after discovering an astronomical credit card bill.

In the final episode of the SBS variety show 'Island Heroes', aired on the 16th, viewers witnessed the concluding moments of singer Lim Young-woong and his close friends' island adventure.

When Heo Kyung-hwan didn't receive notifications for his credit card usage from Kye-do and Im Tae-hoon, he directly called them to inquire about the amount spent. Kye-do playfully suggested he had appliance purchases in mind. Heo Kyung-hwan jokingly warned them to be reasonable, threatening to block the card, which elicited laughter.

Upon their reunion, Heo Kyung-hwan appeared anxious seeing the extensive purchase history. Im Tae-hoon presented the receipts and the card, stating he had something to give. Faced with a thick stack of receipts, Heo Kyung-hwan exclaimed, "Did you publish a book? Why is it so thick?", showing his astonishment.

Stunned by the 520,000 KRW charge on the receipt, Heo Kyung-hwan demanded an explanation. Kye-do revealed that gifts for the local residents were purchased. Heo Kyung-hwan declared, "It's almost 990,000 KRW. I'll be sending a certified letter when I get back to Seoul," adopting a serious tone that further amused everyone.

However, it turned out to be a prank. The only expenses charged to Heo Kyung-hwan's card were for a cafe and a supermarket. The rest of the significant spending was done using Kye-do and Im Tae-hoon's own cards. As Heo Kyung-hwan fell for their scheme, Kye-do and Im Tae-hoon couldn't contain their laughter.
