Controversy over an alleged affair has had a devastating effect on the TV career of former lawmaker Kang Yong-seok.
Cable channel tvN said Tuesday Kang will be resigning from his main program, “Kang Yong-suk’s Gosohan 19.”
The future of the show is not yet determined, but Wednesday’s show has been cancelled.
The husband of a power blogger is suing Kang for allegedly having an affair with his wife.
The channel said the resignation was due to the lawsuit and viewer sentiment.
On Aug. 4, Kang resigned from his “Wednesday Delicacies” program.
Kang was embroiled in another scandal in 2010 after making sexist remarks to female collegians who wanted to become TV announcers.
