Following veteran singer Shim Soo-bong (71) publicly criticizing junior singer Kim Da-hyun (17), the fallout continues. Amidst this, concerns have even been raised about Shim's health due to her stage performance.

On the 21st, a full video of the 10th Jinan Highland Trot Festival held on the 20th was released on the YouTube channel 'Rock Music'.

The released video showed Shim Soo-bong being supported by staff as she ascended the stage. While descending the stairs, she appeared to walk somewhat unsteadily, and at various points during the performance, she leaned her forehead or head against something or bent over, displaying signs of discomfort.

Additionally, in some segments, her pitch seemed slightly unstable, and her voice sounded weaker than usual, leading to speculation that there might be health issues.

Once these scenes were made public, criticism arose regarding Shim Soo-bong's public critique of Kim Da-hyun. The reaction was that she should not have publicly pointed out a junior singer when she herself appeared to struggle on stage.

Earlier, Shim Soo-bong took the stage at the festival and addressed Kim Da-hyun as "the woman singing in front," saying, "She made my head spin. It seems like a young lady who doesn't know what singing is or what life is. Listening to her sing was so difficult."

She continued, "Please don't send someone forward in front of me. I'm completely dizzy and feel like I might collapse. Singing isn't something you can do lightly," and publicly reprimanded her by adding, "Music that comforts people after experiencing life's hardships is not easy."

Upon hearing these remarks, Kim Da-hyun burst into tears. Her father, Kim Bong-gon, told StarNews, "Da-hyun encountered Shim Soo-bong's comments while monitoring during a break after the event. At first she didn't say anything, but then she suddenly burst into tears. It seems she was deeply upset."

He further stated, "It wasn't just a festival stage; it was an occasion where everyone stood as equals to bring joy to the audience. The unexpected remarks were shocking. Shim Soo-bong is someone Da-hyun has always respected. If there was something to say about a junior singer, she could have said it privately anytime, however she chose. It seems inappropriate to discuss 'young lady,' 'player,' or life on an official stage. Such expressions and word choices are truly hurtful."

As the controversy grew, Shim Soo-bong apologized through her agency, saying, "It was literally a slip of the tongue. I was under great stress due to noise at the venue." She added, "I didn't even know who the preceding singer was, and I certainly did not say those words to humiliate anyone. As an elder, it is clear that I hurt a junior singer's feelings," and bowed her head in apology.

Subsequently, Kim Da-hyun shared on her social media, "I spoke directly with Shim Soo-bong, who apologized personally and offered warm encouragement and comfort. I will compose myself, so please don't worry. Let's meet again with bright smiles."

In the end, Shim Soo-bong apologized directly to Kim Da-hyun, who calmly accepted it and instead comforted fans who had been upset. Although the conflict between the two was resolved, criticism directed at Shim Soo-bong continues.
