Mir, formerly of the group MBLAQ, apologized for the controversy over the title "mother-in-law."
On the 27th, Mir uploaded a video titled "I will speak about the controversial part" to the YouTube channel "Bang-ga-ne."
That day, Mir began by saying, "When I gained weight while on YouTube, when I shaved my head, and when I got tattoos, I was insulted. I thought I didn't deserve those insults then, but this time, I should be scolded."

He continued, "I took down the (controversial) video. I do not call her 'mother-in-law' or 'father-in-law.' Since dating, I have called them 'mother' and 'father' or used their names. Every time my father-in-law drinks, he tells me, 'I was so happy when you called me by my name.'"
He then explained, "As I was filming the video, it felt awkward to suddenly say 'mother.' I should have said 'mother-in-law,' but I ended up saying 'mother-in-law' without the honorific. I should be scolded. That is why I took the video down," cleanly admitting his mistake.
Watching from the side, his sister Ko Eun-ah urged, "(Mir) has been under a lot of stress. Everyone's environment and family atmosphere are different, aren't they? Please don't criticize him too harshly."

Previously, Mir had released a video showing him outing with his wife and mother-in-law. In that video, Mir said, "Our mother-in-law even gave me herbal medicine when I said I was tired," sparking the so-called "title controversy."
Meanwhile, Mir married a non-celebrity woman in December last year.
