Yang Sang-guk (born October 1, 1983) is a South Korean comedian. [1] He first became famous as a cast member of the Korean comedy show Gag Concert, earning popularity with his "countrified" image.
Yang Sang-guk was born in Jinyeong-eup, Gimhae, South Gyeongsang Province. [2] Originally, his dream was to be a Buddhist monk, but he "couldn't give up joy" and chose to be a comedian. [3] After completing his mandatory military service, Yang appeared in the comedy audition program Gag Hunting , [2] performing a skit that was later adapted into the Gag Concert sketch "Seoulmate". [4] The next year, he became one of 14 aspirants to pass KBS's 22nd comedian recruitment. [5] He first became known through his appearance in the Gag Concert skit "I Bet on My Life". [6] While Yang was working on another skit, Yoo Se-yoon and Lee Jong-hoon gave him a role in "Doctor Fish", as a passionate fan of Yoo's character.

[7] "Doctor Fish" ended on September 21, 2008, [8] after which Yang took a 10-month hiatus. [9]
In 2011, he appeared in the sketch "Seoulmate", which he and Ryu Jeong-nam had showed off on Gag Hunting in 2005. Seo Su-min, Gag Concert's producer at the time, suggested bringing back the skit on his program. [10] His humor using Korean dialect made him popular, and his catchphrase "궁디를 주차삐까" became a trend.
