As controversies surrounding YouTuber 'Wi Miracle' Park Wi continue, unexpected backlash has also reached comedian Kim Ki-ri, who is believed to have introduced Park Wi's wife, Song Ji-eun. With Kim Ki-ri, whose wife recently gave birth and who is currently raising a newborn, now drawn into the controversy, attention focuses on how far public anger toward Park Wi will extend.
Park Wi recently sparked controversy by releasing CCTV footage of himself as a social service officer on KTX, which was later deleted amid backlash. Although he subsequently issued an apology statement, the fallout continues.
Malicious comments continue to pour into Park Wi's YouTube channel 'Wi Miracle.' His past videos are being resurfaced ('pulled up'), and his social media activity and past remarks are being thoroughly investigated ('mined'). Amid this, it became a hot topic that Park Wi and Song Ji-eun revealed on YouTube that Kim Ki-ri was the 'bridge' who connected them. As a result, some members of the public visited Kim Ki-ri's SNS to leave malicious comments. In response, Kim Ki-ri disabled comments on his SNS. The posts reportedly included messages such as "Why did you introduce Song Ji-eun to Park Wi?" and "Would you have done that if she were your younger sister?"
Kim Ki-ri became a father last month when his wife, actress Moon Ji-in, gave birth. While enjoying the joy of becoming parents, he must be feeling upset by the sudden outpouring of malicious comments directed at him. While it is possible for a third party to act as a bridge in someone's marriage, it seems strange that people are continuing to criticize and stir up controversy even over the first meeting of a couple who have already been married for some time.
One can be angry about Park Wi's controversy. One may feel furious. It is true that Park Wi's actions were reckless. However, just because someone made a mistake does not grant anyone the right to dig up everything about them and condemn every aspect of their life. Moreover, it is far too excessive to direct criticism not only at the person who made the mistake but also toward their family and acquaintances. Park Wi himself has apologized, and some subscribers of his YouTube channel have since canceled their subscriptions and expressed their stance.
