He appeared as the MC of SBS's "Midnight TV Entertainment" for 19 years from 1997 until the show ended in 2016. Later that year, he was involved in an incident while reporting the disbandment of Sechs Kies. His car was similar to the CEO of DSP Media so two fans destroyed it out of rage. He was compensated by the CEO himself as both fans were minors, but singer Eun Ji Won misunderstood the situation and for weeks claimed Cho did this just to get a new car and the compensation money, but they managed to clear their issues after talking in-person.
He is a close friend of Kim Gu Ra and he appeared in many episodes of "My Little Television" with him. Outside of entertainment, he is an adjunct professor at Woosong Institute of Technology since 2004 and at the Seoul National University of Arts since 2011. He also runs a successful moving and cleaning business, now with over 300 branches across the country, and is also an investor at his manager's pizza restaurants.
