Singer Kim Heung-guk, who opposed the impeachment of President Yoon Suk-yeol, refuted malicious comments and appealed for his return.
Kim expressed his difficulties caused by malicious comments and hope for his return to broadcasting on his personal YouTube channel 'Deuri-Dev TV' recently.
He began by saying, "These days, watching entertainment industry news makes me sad as a senior in the entertainment industry." He continued, "Becoming a star in my 20s and working hard, life has many events as one lives. But still, after reflecting and doing my best in my own way, I wonder why people are so hostile and hate so much. It breaks my heart to see people making extreme choices due to that."
On the 16th, the sudden passing of former child actor Kim Sae-ron occurred. Kim Sae-ron had been suffering from ongoing criticism due to drunk driving during her lifetime. This was interpreted as a reference made indirectly by Kim Heung-guk.
In this regard, Kim Heung-guk emphasized, "I also need to return to broadcasting, but as you all know, I am suffering from a lot of malicious comments." He said, "People can make mistakes as they live. If one reflects and forgives, I hope opportunities will be given for a return." He appealed, "Please love our entertainers a lot."
Last December, Kim Heung-guk stirred controversy by seemingly defending the state of emergency while opposing President Yoon Suk-yeol's impeachment. At that time, he said, "I respect and love those who shout for the legitimacy of martial law and the invalidation of impeachment," receiving criticism from the public.
Recently, it surfaced that he received a summary order to pay a fine of 1 million won for illegal lane changes and driving without a license while driving in a certain area of Gangnam, Seoul, in April last year, drawing criticism.
