Actor Sung Hun (43) has become a topic of discussion by sharing his recent mukbang activities as a 'TikToker' following the controversy over his 'rude mukbang.'

Recently, Sung Hun opened an official TikTok account and is actively engaging as a 'TikToker' by hosting live broadcasts and presenting short-form content.

Notably, Sung Hun also unveiled videos with a 'mukbang' concept, drawing the attention of netizens.

Given that Sung Hun was heavily criticized in the past for his 'rude mukbang,' unusual attention has been focused on him. In August 2022, on tvN's 'Restaurant with a Queue,' he expressed dissatisfaction starting from the program's intended concept of 'waiting at a restaurant.' He also drew controversy by inhaling meat with tongs instead of chopsticks in restaurants and performing unhygienic actions such as shaking his head to wipe off dripping sweat. At the time, MC Park Na-rae tried hard to smooth things over by asking, "Is water leaking outside?" but Sung Hun simply replied, "Sweat," showing no concern for his rude behavior.

Ultimately, Sung Hun's agency at the time bowed their heads and stated, "We were trying to have fun, so it seems we went a bit too far. We are sorry if viewers felt uncomfortable." Following this, Sung Hun appeared less frequently in various variety shows, including MBC's 'I Live Alone.'
