Broadcaster Shin Dong-yeob issued a direct apology after controversy arose over remarks he made in the YouTube content "Jjanhan-hyeong."

On the 6th, through an official statement, Shin Dong-yeob said, "I sincerely bow my head to apologize to everyone who was hurt and disappointed by my careless words and actions during the recent 'Jjanhan-hyeong' broadcast."

He emphasized his affection and respect for Daehangno. Shin Dong-yeob stated, "Daehangno is a very meaningful and special place to me," adding, "I have experienced deep resonance and emotion by watching numerous masterpieces such as 'Subway Line 1' and 'Finding Kim Jong-wook' in Daehangno."

He further added, "Therefore, I have always held feelings of affection and respect for the stages and performing arts of Daehangno."

Shin Dong-yeob explained, "During conversations with cast members on the broadcast, I made light remarks that were overly focused on jokes exchanged, failing to consider the actual environment on-site and the hard work of many people."

He then said, "I sincerely apologize once again from the bottom of my heart to everyone who felt discomfort and hurt due to my inadequate words and actions," promising, "In the future, I will be more careful with my words and actions in any setting and always maintain a humble attitude toward the dedication of those who create stage arts."

Previously, on the 3rd, the YouTube channel 'Jjanhan-hyeong Shin Dong-yeob' featured Shin Dong-yeob discussing musicals while conversing with guests Boom and Naksal. He stated, "Daehangno generally has many small theaters, so musicals are not performed there. Since musicals are performed in large theaters, what is done in Daehangno is small theater musicals. Those don't even need microphones." Following this remark, criticism arose suggesting it demeaned the Daehangno performance scene and small theater musicals, labeling the comments as rude.
