Jung Hyung Don thanks Hani and Heechul and discusses his hiatus

Jung Hyung Don thanked Hani and Heechul for working as temporary hosts of 'Weekly Idol' while he was away. 

On MBC Every1's 'Weekly Idol' that aired on October 5, Jung Hyung Don made a comeback, breaking his 10-month hiatus due to his anxiety disorder.

During the show, Defconn introduced each person that Jung Hyung Don should thank. When Hani and Heechul came up, Jung Hyung Don said, "I am so grateful that you did an awesome job with the show." He then jokingly added, "But it wasn't you guys' real position anyway." 

Jung Hyung Don also described what his almost year-long break was like. When Defconn asked how his break was, Jung Hyung Don shared, "I was mostly lying in bed... I am still receiving treatments. I traveled a little bit but mostly stayed in my area, focusing on regaining my mental and physical health."
