MC Mong and Lee Da-in continue their social media clash… Lee Seung-gi in an awkward situation as internet users react, saying, "That's a bit too much."
In the end, will Lee Seung-gi have to step in? As singer MC Mong and actress Lee Da-in continued their intense exchange over social media, Lee Seung-gi became embroiled in a difficult situation. In the meantime, MC Mong's provocative statements have also caused controversy.
On the 3rd, MC Mong posted on his social media, along with the text "BAM!!!," a group photo with actors Lee Seung-gi and Lee Da-in, Lee Da-in's sister Lee Yu-bi, and Chagawon, the chairman of the Piak Group. Although it attracted attention as a long-awaited update, Lee Da-in's reaction was unexpected.
Lee Da-in immediately expressed her displeasure, saying, "What's the reason for posting a photo that's over a year old and causing such a noise now? I really can't understand it." She then publicly revealed the photo data, clarifying that the photo was taken on July 18, 2024. This was well before Lee Seung-gi officially declared his severance from his in-laws in April, and it seems Lee Da-in felt that MC Mong's posting of the 'old photo' without any explanation created a situation that called their sincerity into question.
In fact, at that time, as the controversy over his father-in-law arose, Lee Seung-gi publicly declared, "The trust among family members has been irreparably damaged," thus officially announcing his separation from his in-laws. As such, this photo disclosure inevitably became a sensitive issue for the couple.
In response, MC Mong did not remain silent. He reposted a separate screenshot of Lee Da-in's face, adding the text, "Stay out of this when it's not your place!" He continued with, "Whether I post a photo from a year ago or a photo I liked, will you do something as disgraceful as abandoning family?" This directly referenced Lee Seung-gi and his in-laws' severance.
In connection with this, internet user reactions have been mixed. Some criticized MC Mong, saying, "He was reckless," "It crossed the line to directly mention someone else's family affairs," and "Only Lee Seung-gi is left in an awkward position." Others cynically remarked, "There was no need to post that photo now, it was an action just perfect for misunderstanding," and "If it never matched from the start, this wouldn't have happened."
Moreover, right after this controversy, MC Mong left another ambiguous post. Along with a photo of himself, he wrote, "My mind has cleared. Now I should do what I'm good at," which sparked speculation among netizens. There were interpretations like, "Isn't this a signal of his return to music activities?" alongside reactions questioning the intention behind posting such content right after the tit-for-tat.
Ultimately, this incident escalated from a simple 'old photo disclosure' into a conflict involving Lee Seung-gi's family issues and the emotional struggle between MC Mong and Lee Da-in. Caught in the middle, Lee Seung-gi faces confusion over how to behave between a close senior and his wife. Finally, among internet users, reactions include remarks like, "It seems like only Lee Seung-gi will have to step in to end their feud," and "Ultimately, Lee Seung-gi will have to speak out to resolve this situation."
