Entertainer Park Myung Soo has recently sparked controversy after releasing YouTube content featuring aespa Winter, sparking a wave of fury and criticism from fans.
The content, which implied a romantic relationship between the two, has been heavily condemned for what many perceive as Park Myung Soo's "inappropriate obsession" with the young idol.
The backlash intensified as two other instances of Park Myung Soo's behavior resurfaced, shedding light on a pattern of behavior that has raised concerns among fans and observers.
In one instance, dating back to two months ago, Park Myung Soo invited ITZY Yuna onto his YouTube channel for a segment, titled "fashion showdown."
During the episode, Park Myung Soo posed a hypothetical question to Yuna, asking if she would agree to a date with someone dressed like him.
The exchange left many viewers uncomfortable, further fueling the criticism against the entertainer.
Another incident, dating back to 2015, involves former AOA member Seolhyun.
On a reality program, Park Myung Soo reportedly shoved Seolhyun's head after she accidentally dropped an egg, leading to a decrease in the food available.
Seolhyun's emotional reaction to the incident, coupled with Park Myung Soo's apology, has resurfaced amid the recent controversy.
Netizens have taken to social media platforms to express their dismay and frustration with Park Myung Soo's behavior.
Many have voiced concerns about the perceived pattern of older male entertainers engaging in inappropriate interactions with younger female idols.
Several tweets have circulated condemning Park Myung Soo's actions and calling for him to refrain from similar behavior in the future.
Fans have also directed their criticism towards entertainment agencies, urging them to take appropriate measures to protect their artists from such encounters.
