Singer and songwriter Joo Young-hoon has sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry by confessing the severe side effects of popular diet pills.

In a preview clip for MBN's 'Dongchimi,' which aired at the end of the broadcast, the cast engaged in a discussion on the topic of 'being easily swayed.'

Joo Young-hoon began by sharing his susceptibility, stating, 'Because I'm easily swayed, there's nothing I haven't tried to lose weight.' He then brought up diet pills, remarking, 'Back then, all the most famous female singers were taking them.'

He continued, startling the audience by saying, 'The downside is that sometimes I would have accidental bowel leakage without even realizing it.' MC Kim Yong-man echoed the sentiment, recalling, 'I heard this too. Celebrities would suddenly rush to the restroom during recordings.'

Joo Young-hoon is married to actress Lee Yoon-mi, and they have three daughters.

'Dongchimi' airs every Saturday at 11 PM.

Joo Young-hoon debuted as a solo artist in the 1990s and achieved significant popularity with hit songs like 'Our Love Like This' and 'Regret.'
