ENA·SBS Plus 'I am Solo' Season 24 participant Oksun expressed her feelings about the show's conclusion while responding coolly to negative comments.
On the 27th, Oksun shared her thoughts on the end of the 'I am Solo' program on her social media.
Oksun said she mainly found comfort through books when she hit rock bottom, and quoted lines from poet Jo Eun's poem "Someday": "I will be choked up with memories of just waiting for the bus while ignoring how flowers receive sunlight, how they embrace the darkness, wondering what bus I was waiting for. Did I miss it, did I transfer, how long was the wait, did I stand or sit, did I doze off and pass my destination? I hope I get a chance to share this story. From the moment I started sending emails until the last broadcast, it was exciting and enjoyable every week."
She added a positive message, stating, "Many people's sweat and passion go into completing an episode. The viewers are the ones who hold the responsibility for its conclusion. I want to express my gratitude to everyone who enjoyed Season 24 with both criticism and support. I love the production team and the village chief who worked day and night for 'I am Solo.' I also love those who sent unwavering support to Season 24 Oksun. Please don't hate me too much; it's harmful to your mental health. I will leave this with good memories and return to my current life."
While supportive comments were predominant, there were also aggressive reactions.
Throughout the broadcast, Oksun received a perception of 'managing the fish pond' not only from Oh Kyoung, who was a 'fan of Oksun,' but also from male participants. In response, one netizen sarcastically commented, "You gathered all the buses in front of your sister, right?" Oksun shot back, saying, "Understand the meaning beyond the words."
Another netizen commented, "I have never commented here before, but accumulating everything until the last episode just to stir up trouble because it seems like there's no affection is disgusting," to which Oksun firmly replied, "Then throw up."
