Kim Ju Ha reveals real reason for viral cold sweat during news
News anchor Kim Ju Ha clarifies that her viral cold sweat during a live broadcast was caused by indigestion, not an urgent bathroom emergency.
Speculation arose that Kim Ju Ha needed an urgent bathroom break after she was seen breaking into a cold sweat during a news broadcast. However, the anchor revealed the real reason was entirely different. Kim shared the humorous yet embarrassing story of how she even had to personally request the removal of related search terms from portal sites.

During the 26th broadcast of MBN's 'Kim Ju Ha's Day and Night,' featuring Kim Ju Ha, Moon Se Yoon, and Cho Jazz, singers who participated in audition programs shared their stories. Lee Ji Hoon, who appeared on 'The Ballad of Us,' recalled a past broadcast of Kim, saying, "I was watching a Reel and saw her breaking into a cold sweat truly struggling.""
Lee expressed his respect, stating, "Even though she looked like she was struggling, she maintained her professionalism and didn't miss a single sentence. It made me think that if I am to work in this field, I should become a professional like her."
In response, Kim offered an unexpected explanation.
"Actually, people think it was because of an urgent need to use the bathroom," Kim emphasized, adding, "But you can't break into that much sweat that instantly from that." The actual cause was sudden indigestion. After eating an expired cup noodle, her physical condition deteriorated rapidly, but she continued to host the news until the end without interrupting the broadcast.
The issue persisted even after the broadcast. Kim revealed, "Because so many people thought that, I contacted the portal sites. When people searched for me, that term appeared as a related search term," and she requested its removal, noting that the terms were indeed cleaned up. However, she received a call from a friend who told her something absurd: "When you search for 'urgent bathroom break,' Kim Ju Ha pops up.""
In a single moment, a serious news anchor's experience turned into an unexpected internet meme.
In the same broadcast, stories of singers whose lives changed through auditions were also revealed. Hwang Ga Ram, appearing alongside Kim Gi Tae from 'Sing Again 2,' shared that after passing the audition for the band Pinocchio with a 300 to 1 competition rate, he contracted COVID-19 just six months later. He then shared that as he approached his 40s, he decided to jump back into auditions, telling himself, "Don't just think you're not good enough; let's take the challenge."
Hwang moved the audience by confessing that after having a son, he wanted to leave behind footage of himself as a father appearing on TV. Regarding his husky voice, he explained that it was due to a congenital issue behind his vocal cords rather than vocal cord nodules. Lee Ji Hoon, who was part of a multicultural children's choir, and Ochuba Jeremy also shared stories of nurturing their dreams through music in similar environments.
Ultimately, the broadcast was a unique blend of laughter and emotion. Kim's cold sweat, which remained as an 'urgent bathroom meme' to some, was actually a moment of professionalism where she refused to abandon a live broadcast, while for Hwang, it was a time of challenging himself again to avoid giving up the stage. As these hidden stories were revealed, the pasts of the participants were seen in a new light.
