Choi Jun-hee, daughter of the late actress Choi Jin-sil, announced the postponement of her market event while referencing the issue of insufficient voting ballots during the the 3rd local elections.

On the 6th, Choi Jun-hee stated, "After much consideration while observing the current situation and social atmosphere in the Republic of Korea, I have decided to temporarily postpone the market scheduled for tomorrow."

She continued, "I kept following the news even during my honeymoon, and I now believe there are things more important than sales," adding, "Though I am far away for now, I hope everyone in our beloved country stays safe."

It appears Choi Jun-hee indirectly referenced various issues following the recent controversy over the shortage of voting ballots during the the 3rd local elections.

Earlier, according to the National Election Commission, as of 6:20 p.m. on the 3rd, shortages of voting ballots occurred at a total of 14 polling stations: 12 in Seoul's Songpa-gu, 1 in Gangnam-gu, and 1 in Gwangjin-gu. These polling stations were located in areas including Garak 2-dong, Jamsil 2-dong, Jamsil 4-dong, Jamsil 7-dong, and Munjeong 2-dong in Songpa-gu; Cheongdam-dong in Gangnam-gu; and Guui 3-dong in Gwangjin-gu.

Previously, ahead of the presidential election last May, Choi Jun-hee had posted, "I want to live in a country without the left. As election day approaches, my heart grows increasingly anxious."

Subsequently, regarding the controversy surrounding the Starbucks Tank Day event, Choi Jun-hee dismissed claims about her Starbucks check-in photo, stating, "What exactly am I checking in for? I went to Universal Studios in LA during my honeymoon. The only decent café available was Starbucks. Anyone who knows my style would understand I didn't dress up that day. Since we spent a lot of money visiting an amusement park, I just wanted to take a photo, so I briefly covered my face with the cup."

She further expressed anger, saying, "There are Starbucks everywhere in the U.S. Why must I be criticized for drinking and posting about it? Stop these crazy people. What grievance do I have with this incident that I would deliberately post a check-in? There was simply a Starbucks at Universal, and I bought a drink. My followers know this. Today, my styling was almost bare-faced, at a minimal two-step level, so I just wanted to cover my face with the cup. I am truly, truly sorry. Between work and my honeymoon, I have no time to dwell on this Starbucks incident. And since I'm traveling in the U.S., whether someone buys coffee or not is their choice. Why do they publish such inflammatory articles? Ugh, I'm so tired."

Choi Jun-hee added, "During my honeymoon in the U.S., a single photo from my daily life suddenly became a check-in photo, turned into a controversy over my personal path, and I was treated as if I had sent a signal." She clarified, "I never said I supported anyone, never mocked the controversy, and simply drank coffee in the U.S."

Meanwhile, on the 16th, Choi Jun-hee held a wedding ceremony in Seoul with her non-celebrity boyfriend, who is 11 years her senior, after five years of dating.
