Actor Jung Joon-won continues promoting his drama without issuing any statement following the attitude controversy.

On the 8th, Jung posted a video for the drama "Married Woman Killer" on his Instagram without any additional comment, launching into promotional activities for the work.

Earlier, on the 7th, he also posted messages such as "Tonight at 9:50 MBC" and "Reporter Gu Hae-na makes her first appearance," expressing support for a fellow actor appearing alongside him. In a situation where no separate explanation or statement has been issued following the attitude controversy, his continuous promotion of the work and fellow actors via SNS has drawn attention.

Previously, Jung appeared on MBC's "What Do You Do?" broadcast on the 1st, where footage was released showing him struggling to answer questions easily or hesitating. Following this, some viewers pointed out that his attitude toward the program was inappropriate, sparking what is known as the "attitude controversy."

Fellow actor Gong Hyo-jin and entertainer HaHa publicly defended Jung, but the controversy surrounding him has not subsided. Gong posted on her SNS, "The husband who actually vomited after filming—I couldn't save him, I'm sorry." HaHa also said, "I was there at the scene; he was too lovely, cute, and funny," adding, "It's really hard for even pros to do 'Nolmwo' in their first variety show. Since he is not a professional entertainer, please watch him cutely and just enjoy the variety show."

However, some pointed out that the continuous defense by his colleagues might be fueling the controversy rather than calming it down. Meanwhile, opinions continued that excessive criticism should be restrained given this was his first variety show appearance, leading to ongoing debate.

Adding to the situation, past remarks by director Jang Hang-jun were brought back into focus, further igniting the controversy. Jang's past comments on a YouTube channel, stating regarding Jung, "He lacks manners. He was rude," have been re-examined, intensifying the dispute.
