Actor Kim Bin-woo has become the center of attention over a nuisance controversy. Given that Kim Bin-woo has an 11-year gap in her acting career, it is disappointing that she is making headlines only because of controversy.
Kim Bin-woo, who has had an 11-year gap in works since the 2015 MBC daily drama "The Indomitable Mrs. Cha," recently appeared on broadcasts only as a guest on KBS2's "Study, Nolbu" aired last year, and since her marriage her activities in the entertainment industry have almost come to a halt.
Meanwhile, Kim Bin-woo's name is heating up the entertainment industry. Her name was mentioned not because of good news such as casting in works or variety show appearances, but because of a controversy that she caused floor noise.
Earlier, a controversy over causing floor noise erupted as Kim Bin-woo's TikTok live broadcast footage spread on online communities and social media. In the video, Kim Bin-woo is enjoying dancing and singing to music with a microphone against a background of fancy lights in the early morning hours. The interior of her home resembled the atmosphere of a small club.
When a viewer asked, "Is this an apartment?" Kim Bin-woo replied, "It's on the first floor?" Some netizens criticized her recklessness, noting that floor noise can be transmitted not only to lower floors but also through walls and pillars to adjacent units, upper floors and diagonal units.
Kim Bin-woo bowed her head and apologized, saying, "I am deeply reflecting on my short-sighted thinking. I will be more careful in the future. I'm sorry."
Since marrying a businessman in 2015 and almost stopping activities in the entertainment industry, Kim Bin-woo has repeatedly come under controversy. In 2007 she caused controversy for "cutting in line and showing a brazen attitude" in the standing section of a Christina Aguilera concert. At the time, Kim Bin-woo entered the middle of a long line to enter the venue, and when other audience members protested the line cutting she explained, "I didn't cut in line; I joined the group that was standing in front. It's not because I'm a celebrity. You and I are both audience members who came to see the concert."
After the controversy, Kim Bin-woo's agency apologized, saying, "We are truly sorry. We're sorry. If I disrupted anyone's enjoyment of the concert because of me, I'm sorry. I also simply went as a fan of Aguilera. It wasn't that I wanted to watch from the front because I'm a celebrity or out of a sense of entitlement. I have cleared up the misunderstanding with the person who argued with me at the time. But I'm embarrassed that this has escalated like this. However, if I made anyone feel bad because of me, I am truly sorry. It was not intentional. I'm sorry," and offered an apology.
From allegations of a sense of entitlement to accusations of causing floor noise, Kim Bin-woo, who has had a long hiatus, is at the center of unwelcome issues. Currently continuing activities through social media and group purchases, we look forward to the day Kim Bin-woo greets viewers with a work rather than a controversy.
