Comedian Jung Joon-ha has attracted attention by revealing the sales and monthly fixed costs of the restaurant he operates.

On the 13th, Jung Joon-ha appeared on "Face Genius Cha Eun-soo," hosted by comedian Park Myung-soo, where he talked about running his business. When asked about the sales, Jung Joon-ha replied, "On weekdays, we sell about 10 million won, and on weekends, sales range from 15 to 20 million won," surprising many.

When Park Myung-soo asked, "How large is the restaurant?" Jung Joon-ha answered, "It’s 60 pyeong (approximately 198 square meters)." He added, "The monthly rent, including VAT, is 32 million won," and said, "There are more than 20 employees including part-timers, and last month alone, the labor cost for part-timers was 45 million won." He also mentioned, "Even after paying rent, ingredient costs, and management fees, we still make a profit."

When Park Myung-soo said, "Still, I guess the profit isn’t as much as you think because raw material prices are expensive," Jung Joon-ha agreed, saying, "That’s right," and lamented, "The price of sashimi has gone up by 80%." Park Myung-soo asked, "If you make a profit from the business, do you send your son Roha to an academy?" but Jung Joon-ha confessed, "No. The money earned here is used to cover the Apgujeong restaurant, so it’s all gone. That place failed."

That day, Jung Joon-ha also shared his frustrations about "eating and running." He said there are many cases where customers leave after eating without paying, sometimes leaving only their clothes behind or couples who just leave without paying. Earlier in June, Jung Joon-ha posted on his social media, "Why are there so many people running away after drinking these days? Ah, really." At that time, he expressed his frustration on his YouTube channel, saying, "I got really angry while working at night that day," and "Someone who was really kind suddenly ran away," evoking sympathy.

Netizens who saw the video responded with various comments such as, "Self-employment is really not easy," "Labor costs alone are 45 million won," "This is the reality of self-employment," "Why you need to be cautious when deciding to be self-employed," "I’ve been to the Apgujeong restaurant and it was really nice," "Cheering for Jung Joon-ha," "The rent must be no joke," and "It’s so tough, so please don’t eat and run, be humane."
