South Korean comedian Jung Hyung-don took part in a radio show on Tuesday despite his poor health condition.

Jung, who shot to fame as a regular on a weekly variety show “Infinite Challenge,” was seen suffering from severe pain in his chest during the special radio show on KBS2, whose video footage was streamed online.

The comedian held on to the end of the show by taking medicine and singer-songwriter You Hee-yeol, who hosted the program, said Jung was “not in a condition to shoot for the radio show.”

He was recently hospitalized for pneumonia
