Previously, Yoon Jong Shin had shared on the variety show ‘Master in the House’ his reasons for taking a year off from broadcasting and living abroad. Reflecting on his decision, he candidly admitted, “I was feeling burned out.”

He elaborated, “For 20 years, I never took a break from broadcasting. Every week, people saw my face and heard my voice. While I was grateful, I also felt exhausted. I wanted to disappear from people’s view for a while. It wasn’t to the point of having panic disorder, but I experienced burnout.”

Yoon Jong Shin also shared, “I once stopped at a rural rest area, and it was incredibly cold and empty. It was the first time in a long while that I felt such sadness, but it was good to feel that emotion. I spent nine months living under cold stares, and then back at the airport, I received familiar glances again. Strangely, the time I spent in unfamiliar places became a precious experience.” 

His story drew significant attention at the time.

Meanwhile, Yoon Jong Shin, a singer and composer, married former tennis player Jeon Mira in 2006. The couple has one son and two daughters.
