Actor Yoon Kyung-ho released a vlog documenting his successful 13-hour silent <a href="https://christiancorner.us/2026/07/22/flourishing-a-meditation/” title=”Flourishing: a meditation”>meditation

On the 22nd, SBS posted the video on its official YouTube channel under the title “[vlog] Yoon Kyung-ho who completed 13% of ‘Manager Kim’ and undertook 13 hours of silent meditation | Manager Kim,” featuring an extremely quiet (or so it seemed) day

Earlier, during the press conference for SBS’s Friday-Saturday drama “Manager Kim,” Yoon Kyung-ho pledged to undertake a 13-hour silent meditation if the show’s viewership exceeded 13%. With “Manager Kim” surpassing that rating in just two episodes, Yoon was compelled to fulfill his promise

In the video, Yoon Kyung-ho stated, “Not only speaking, but also interjections and exclamations are considered violations. Up to three warnings will be overlooked, but starting from the fourth warning, each additional violation adds five minutes to the meditation time. I can use a whiteboard 13 times for truly necessary situations,” before beginning his silent meditation

That day, Yoon Kyung-ho went through various schedules, including writing large characters of his name, appearing on SBS Power FM’s “Cultwo Show,” and attending a fan signing event. He nearly shouted when his fitness trainer used a massage gun but managed to hold back

Instead of speaking, Yoon conveyed his thoughts almost entirely through sign language and diligently fulfilled his fan service duties. A crisis occurred at a makeup shop when actress Kim Ji-young, who plays his wife in “Manager Kim,” called him. When Kim expressed disappointment that Yoon wouldn’t speak to her, he whispered, “No, it’s not like that.” Frustrated, Yoon made a video call to Kim and explained using hand gestures

Yoon relieved his frustration by writing notes while traveling in the car. He attempted to communicatebeing provoked by the DJ and cast member Joo Sang-wook

Later at the fan signing event, he expressed gratitude to fans through body language, striking poses like the “Yaho” pose from Lesnne and holding a heart-shaped sign. Even during an English class, Yoon struggled to communicate using only lip movements. That day, Yoon Kyung-ho completed his 13-hour silent meditation, which was extended by 20 minutes

Meanwhile, Yoon Kyung-ho is currently playing Park Jin-cheol, a special mission unit agent, in “Manager Kim.” The drama recorded its highest viewership of 23.1% (based on Nielsen Korea nationwide) in the episode aired on the 18th, with only two episodes remaining until its conclusion
