Director Na Hong-jin revealed a starkly different temperature in his review of the film 'Hoop,' to the extent that jokes about discrimination against celebrities were even raised.

The incident began on the 27th via BTS member Jungkook's social media post. Jungkook uploaded a message reading "Hoop is fun" on a black background.

Upon learning of this, Na Hong-jin quickly regrammed it on his personal SNS and expressed satisfaction with Jungkook's shout-out.

Broadcast personality Yoo Byung-jae also joined in. He posted the exact same message, "Hoop is fun," on his personal SNS. However, while Na Hong-jin responded very quickly to Jungkook, he remained silent regarding Yoo Byung-jae's post.

Ultimately, Yoo Byung-jae commented, "Are you sleeping?" expressing disappointment toward Na Hong-jin.

Na Hong-jin, who seemed unlikely to respond at all to Yoo Byung-jae, finally spoke up on the 28th. In response to Yoo's post, he wrote, "I was trying to sleep, but because of you, Byung-jae, people keep waking me up. What is your business?" This remark sent fans around the world into fits of laughter.

The film 'Hoop' tells the story of a military outpost commander in the Demilitarized Zone who learns from local youths that a tiger has appeared, plunging the entire village into alarm as he encounters an unbelievable reality. The cast includes Hwang Jung-min, Jo In-sung, Jung Ho-yeon, Taylor Russell, Cameron Britton, Alicia Vikander, and Michael Fassbender.
