In a surprising revelation, comedian Yoon Hyung-bin recently shared his secret past as a member of the army's elite D.P. unit, tasked with chasing down deserters. Appearing on the popular TV show 'King of Mask Singer' last month, Yoon, dressed as a quirky clam, lost a duet but stole the show by unveiling his action-hero past.
Yoon boasted of capturing an impressive 52 runaways, claiming top rates across the army, navy, and air force. His stories of these quirky desertion cases proved that life's absurdities can sneak into even the strictest military settings. From a soldier taking a superior's sarcastic "Just go home then!" order literally, to another ditching duty for the 'Lord of the Rings' premiere, Yoon's anecdotes had the panel roaring with laughter.

Married to a fellow comedian with two kids, Yoon embodies a blend of humor, heroism, and hustle - a true multi-tasker who's turned his past experiences into a thriving present.
