Singer Nucksal, who tied the knot with a non-celebrity six years his junior in 2022, recently opened up about his drastically altered lifestyle due to parenting and his entertainment career, hinting at his retirement dreams.
The upcoming episode of MBC’s hit variety show ‘Radio Star,’ set to air on the 11th, will feature a special segment titled ‘Too Much TALK GPT’ with guests Lee Dong-jin, Ahn Hyun-mo, Kweido, and Nucksal.
During the show, Nucksal candidly admits, “I’ve barely touched album production in years,” revealing how parenting has taken center stage over his music career. He quips, “Did I really get hitched?” highlighting his ongoing struggle with this life change and his persistent retirement fantasies. The conversation takes a relatable turn as they crunch numbers on realistic retirement funds.
Nucksal then shares his ‘The Greatest Showman’-inspired ambitions. He unveils plans to become a YouTube impresario, assembling a troupe for his own spectacle. His creative journey from rapper to variety star to aspiring ‘showman’ leaves the studio in stitches.

The parenting segment offers raw, unfiltered reality. Nucksal dishes on his completely overhauled routine while raising two sons, ages three years and four months. He and his wife are running on empty, confessing, “We’re basically zombies now.” His ‘dad mode’ shines through as he compares his polar-opposite sons. A hilarious revelation about mistaking his second child’s gender pre-birth sends the room into hysterics.
Nucksal also touches on his unique bond with actor Park Jung-min, revealing that Park used him as a rap coach for a film role. He recounts their encounters and flexes his rap skills, treating viewers to a ‘return to roots’ moment.
While currently juggling roles as a YouTuber, entertainer, and parent, Nucksal expresses a desire to drop another album. Catch his full story on ‘Radio Star,’ airing at 10:30 PM tonight.
