Broadcaster Maeng Seung-ji has announced her retirement as a comedian.

On the 9th, Maeng revealed on her Instagram, "I retired from stand-up comedy this May." The accompanying photo showed her appearance during her time on MBC's "Infinite Challenge."

She wrote, "You probably don't ask and aren't curious (a play on words meaning 'no questions asked, no interest shown'), but since some people do ask, I am simply stating it. It has been over 10 years since I last performed on a comedy stage, and I have no intention of doing so in the future."

She added, "My time working as a comedian was an incredibly passionate, grateful, and enjoyable memory in my life. I will spend the second act of my life even more joyfully. Since I plan to continue my activities as an actress and broadcaster, please do not feel any regret."

Meanwhile, Maeng debuted in 2013 as a public recruit comedian for MBC's 20th cohort and was active in programs such as "Comedy Addict." She gained recognition through MBC's "Infinite Challenge." Recently, she has been working as an actress, appearing in plays such as "Male Best Friend, Female Best Friend" and "The Killer Is Coming."
