Singer and wife Song Ji-eun shared her recent updates following the controversy involving her YouTuber husband, Park Wi.

On the 16th, Song appeared on the YouTube channel 'Let It Be Renewed'. That day, she smiled brightly and collaborated with MCs Ju Young-hoon and Lee Jeong-su.

In a previous video, Song was shown shedding tears after hearing the story of Reverend Jin Seong-ae, who lost her 17-year-old son. The exact timing of that recording remains unclear, whether before or after the controversy surrounding Park Wi's fall accident. However, interest has focused on this as the first time Song appeared publicly since the controversy erupted.

Song also offered words of comfort on the day: "It must have been so difficult to bring up such a topic, but I am deeply grateful that you shared your life for so many people today."

Meanwhile, Park Wi posted CCTV footage of his fall accident while disembarking from a KTX train on YouTube. However, after facing criticism over the manner of its release, he apologized, stating, "I did not fully consider the repercussions," and deleted the video.

Nevertheless, as past videos related to Park Wi have been re-examined, the controversy surrounding him continues. The fallout also reached his wife, Song Ji-eun. Consequently, Song restricted the comment function on her social media. Moreover, this controversy has led to criticism directed at comedian Kim Gi-ri, who introduced Park Wi and Song Ji-eun to each other.

Park Wi was diagnosed with quadriplegia following a building fall accident in 2014. After undergoing rehabilitation, he regained upper body movement and began sharing content on his YouTube channel about the daily lives of people with disabilities, rehabilitation processes, and social prejudices.

However, due to this controversy, his channel's subscriber count has dropped below one million, and all scheduled lectures have been canceled, leading to ongoing repercussions.
