The reason the episode of 'You Quiz' featuring actress Han Ga-in was made private was due to Asian Games footage.
On the 6th, the 'You Quiz' team stated through OSEN, "A situation arose where additional consultations were needed for some of the footage used in the Asian Games segment, leading to the temporary privatization of the VOD. It is expected to be restocked after resolution."
Previously, Han Ga-in appeared in the tvN entertainment program 'You Quiz on the Block,' which aired on the 26th of last month. Due to a parody by comedian Lee Soo-ji of the 'Daechi mom' content, Han Ga-in, unexpectedly at the center of controversy, clarified during the broadcast, "You think that I study my children a lot and control them; that's absolutely not true," drawing attention.
Then, today (the 6th) at dawn, the segment featuring the appearance was suddenly deleted from the OTT platform TVING. As a result, some speculated, "Isn't this a measure taken by the 'You Quiz' team, conscious of the issues and negative public opinion surrounding Han Ga-in?"
However, this was not the case. It was clarified that the issue arose from the segments featuring short track national representatives Park Ji-won, Kim Gil-ri, and Jang Sung-woo, bringing the incident to a close. Netizens reacted, saying, "Let's stop linking the two," "It was strange that the You Quiz video was taken down because of Lee Soo-ji," "Let's stop the wild speculation, humor is humor," "A broadcasting company wouldn't take down a video for that reason," "Leave Lee Soo-ji alone," and "Han Ga-in's image improved after watching 'New Kids'".
Meanwhile, Lee Soo-ji also addressed allegations that her 'Daechi mom' parody video targeted actress Han Ga-in for the first time.
On the 5th, Lee Soo-ji appeared on KBS Cool FM's 'Oh My Girl Hyo-jeong's Raise the Volume' and discussed her character performances on YouTube, saying, "The effort I put into each character is the same. When I played the Daechi mom character, I said let's keep it as a memory on the upload day. However, the reaction was so intense that it didn't go as I intended, which led to some misunderstandings, so it's unfortunate. Each character reflects people around me or myself."
Recently, in a video titled 'Human Fake Doc, Good Child - A Day in the Life of Jamie's Mom, Lee So-dam,' released on her YouTube channel 'Hot Issue Ji,' Lee Soo-ji transformed into 'Jamie,' a mom from the Daechi-dong academy area in Gangnam, showcasing luxury padded clothing and bags that are commonly referred to as the Gangnam mom uniform while riding with her child to the academy.
After the video was released, there was a strong reaction that it resembles a mother figure commonly seen in Gangnam. However, the controversy previously sparked by Han Ga-in, who had released an academy riding video, resurfaced. Speculations grew that Lee Soo-ji was parodying Han Ga-in, and after negative comments appeared on Han Ga-in's YouTube video, that video was switched to private.
