Actor Park Jeong-min has been swept up in rumors of being an abusive CEO.
On the 3rd, a video titled 'Will Muje participate in next year's book fair? Publisher Muje Q&A' was released on the publisher Muje's YouTube channel.
The video featured Muje publisher representative Park Jeong-min and director Kim Ah-young answering subscribers' questions. Director Kim Ah-young said, "Many identical comments appear on the video. I'm going to answer those. We received questions in advance, and I will answer them."
For the first question, Park Jeong-min and director Kim Ah-young answered, 'Do you have company dinners?' Park Jeong-min said, "It's been about seven or eight months since we started the publishing company, and we haven't had a company dinner. You can't have a dinner with just the two of us. When you say company dinner, it's about taking time after work to drink and plan the company's future, and we've never had such an occasion. If the office becomes bustling, we'll try to push for one."
Director Kim Ah-young said, "First of all, our work never ends. Even now it's 10:30 p.m.," and Park Jeong-min said, "I don't like having a drink after work. It breaks my routine. I don't show it when a sudden company dinner is scheduled, but I find it awful. I expect a company dinner around the year after next. But saying that makes us sound like abusive corporations."
In response, director Kim Ah-young said, "Only the representative is abusive. I'm an employee so I just work diligently and obediently," and the embarrassed Park Jeong-min appealed, "Please help me a little. It'll be fine soon. Doing this brings comments," which drew laughter.
