Actor Jung Jun-won, who has been embroiled in an attitude controversy following his appearance on MBC's variety program "What Do You Do?," will appear on a web entertainment talk show as scheduled.

According to StarNews' investigation on the 5th, the episode of YouTube channel "YouTube Ha Ji-young" featuring Jung Jun-won will be released as planned this afternoon without any separate schedule changes. Although the production team had deliberated internally regarding the release timing following the recent attitude controversy, it was reported that they decided to proceed with the original plan, judging that there is no cause for concern.

"YouTube Ha Ji-young" is a web entertainment channel operated by Ha Ji-young, who previously worked as a reporter on SBS's "Late Night TV Entertainment." Jung Jun-won completed filming to promote MBC's new Friday-Saturday drama "Married Woman Killer." In the first video released on the 29th of last month, he was shown having a relaxed conversation with Ha Ji-young.

At that time, Ha Ji-young mentioned their prior connection when Jung Jun-won served as MC for her fan meeting last year, asking, "He's extremely introverted and shy, so it might be hard for him to speak. Is this okay?" In response, Jung Jun-won said, "It might be difficult for me to talk actively on my own, but since you're such a veteran, I'm sure you'll do well." He added, "(At the fan meeting) Thank you so much for supporting the MC."

Following this, the two continued their conversation naturally while cooking together. At the end of the video, a caption appeared stating, "Next week: Jung Jun-won's Te-to-nam (real self) talk is about to be released," raising expectations for the main episode.

Notably, Jung Jun-won has been caught in an attitude controversy among some viewers due to his passive behavior following his appearance on "What Do You Do?" Afterward, co-stars such as Gong Hyo-jin and Haha, who filmed alongside him, along with fellow actors, have sequentially come forward to defend him, yet the controversy continues. While some point out that the successive defenses by those around him are fueling the controversy, others argue that excessive criticism toward a first-time variety show participant should be restrained, leading to ongoing debates.

Amid this situation, "YouTube Ha Ji-young" is set to reveal Jung Jun-won's honest charm in a more relaxed atmosphere, drawing attention as to whether this video will serve as an opportunity to dispel the controversy.
