Singer Im Young-woong has resumed his social media activity after three months. On the 4th, Im Young-woong posted several photos on his Instagram without any special comments. This is Im Young-woong's first post since the 'What' controversy in early December last year.

Im Young-woong shared his daily life, including watching the K League with acquaintances. He also revealed various aspects, such as going to a café with messy hair and a frown and holding his pet dog. Fans are cheering for Im Young-woong's return to social media. They are leaving comments such as 'I missed you so much,' 'Seeing Im Young-woong's face on my way home clears my fatigue,' and 'Thank you so much for the survival report.'

Im Young-woong faced criticism after an online debate with a netizen on December 7 last year. At that time, Im Young-woong posted a birthday congratulatory post for his pet dog on his Instagram account, and a netizen sent a message asking, 'What are you doing during this situation?' In response, Im Young-woong replied, 'What?' and when the netizen mentioned the 'impeachment situation,' Im Young-woong retorted, 'Am I a politician? Why should I speak up?'

After the news became known, there was criticism, and on December 27 last year during a concert, Im Young-woong apologized to fans, saying, 'I'm sorry for causing worry and concern.' He added, 'I am a singer. I will bring joy and comfort through my songs.' This was an apology for the controversy, but it also led to further debate.

After the 'What' controversy, Im Young-woong, who had not publicly addressed the issue except for his remarks during the concert, has returned to social media after three months, raising interest in whether he can receive the same love as before.
