On the 1st of this month, Jung Hyosung (Secret) appeared on JTBC variety show "Knowing Bros" March 1st Independence Day special and revealed that he got Level 3 on the intermediate level of the "Korean History Proficiency Test" by getting two questions wrong.
"I once made a mistake because I didn't know much about history," he said. "I was shocked at myself. I wondered if I had gone crazy. I felt ashamed of myself, so I started studying. I just did it.
"I decided to set a goal of getting a certificate because it didn't work," he explained. "At the time, among the many malicious comments, there was a comment that said, 'Why don't you take the Korean history test?'
"It was a tough comment. I wanted to show my sincerity and reflect on my actions," he said. "As I was studying, I realized that I had made a terrible mistake."
Choi Tae-seong, a Korean history instructor who appeared with him, said, "Jeong Hyosung (Secret) is probably the first celebrity to take the Korean History Proficiency Test," expressing his interest in Jeong Hyosung's (Secret) challenge.
He emphasized the reason for his unique style. In May 2013, Jung Hyosung (Secret) appeared on a radio show and said, "We are a team that respects individuality, so we will not democratize," which drew criticism from internet users.
At the time, the online community "Daily Best Archive" used the word "democratization" to mean the suppression of individuals through collectivism or totalitarianism.
However, when Jung Hyosung (Secret) used the word "democratization" in this context, it became a controversy. Jung Hyosung (Secret) apologized, saying, "It started from ignorance," and
In August, I obtained the Korean History Proficiency Test Level 3 qualification certificate.
