Actor Choi Hyun-wook this time was embroiled in controversy over a "drunken live broadcast."
Choi Hyun-wook started communicating with fans by conducting a live broadcast on his social media on the morning of the 30th. Not only Korean fans but also overseas fans joined Choi Hyun-wook's live broadcast and continued the conversation.
The problem was that Choi Hyun-wook's live was conducted while he was "drunk." Standing in front of the camera, Choi Hyun-wook was holding a glass of alcohol and repeatedly said several times that he was very drunk himself. He drank alcohol and repeatedly changed the camera angle, showing a disorderly appearance.
As Choi Hyun-wook's disorderly appearance continued, some fans expressed concern. In response, Choi Hyun-wook directly said, "Koreans are probably asleep now. There is no one awake at 7:28 now. I am drunk."
He added, "At this hour there is no one to stop me and I'm so happy. I don't know if I will translate well, but I'm so happy," drawing attention. Fans were worried about the drunken live, but he meant that he was glad to be able to communicate as he wanted.
Choi Hyun-wook has previously been embroiled in several personal controversies such as illegally discarding cigarette butts, an SNS exposure incident, and a ceremonial first pitch controversy. After the controversies, he posted an apology on his social media.
Regarding this, during a promotional interview for the Netflix series Notes from the Last Row last month, he said, "As a work and as a person, I am trying to move forward in life with a more mature attitude. I reflected a lot, and still, working with good people around me and meeting good seniors while filming and taking it on with responsibility, I want to give viewers immersion only through works in the future without such incidents."
Choi Hyun-wook also candidly said, "I always keep that caution, and because my love for this work has grown and I feel more responsibility, I also want to keep doing this work for a long time."
