TV personality Noh Hong-chul, who had kept a low profile since being charged with drunk-driving and losing his license last year, appeared in a talk concert Thursday hosted by popular MC Kim Je-dong.
Noh was at the show with singer Yoon Do-hyun when Kim brought him onto the stage.
Noh appeared in an MBC reality program pilot in September, in which he hitchhiked through Europe.
Noh will return to tvN shows “My Room’s Quality” and “Street Show” this month.
Noh was one of the six hosts of popular reality show “Infinite Challenge” that MBC has aired since 2006.
