Park Soo-hong and his wife Kim Da-ye resumed their YouTube activities approximately three weeks after the controversy over causing delays to flights.

On the 14th, Kim Da-ye shared a new video link from the family's YouTube channel with the caption: "How did we become this close...? Update on our best friends."

The video thumbnail features Park Soo-hong and Kim Da-ye's daughter, Jae-i, sitting side by side with their pet cat, Dahong.

This marks the first upload of a YouTube video by the Park Soo-hong family in about three weeks since August 24.

Earlier, according to StarNews' investigation, Park Soo-hong recently returned from a trip to Guam, U.S. territory, with his wife Kim Da-ye and daughter Jae-i, and resumed activities. On the 7th, he appeared directly on L Company's home shopping program, showing a bright expression and demonstrating eloquent speaking skills while promoting product sales.

StarNews confirmed that the home shopping broadcast was conducted as a live show, not pre-recorded. An official from L Company Home Shopping told StarNews: "It is correct that Park Soo-hong appeared on the broadcast," adding, "He did not sign a direct contract with home shopping channels to appear regularly; he appeared after coordinating with the company." A live home shopping broadcast featuring products under Park Soo-hong's name is also scheduled for the 14th.

Previously, Park Soo-hong became embroiled in controversy over causing delays on an aircraft last August. A post titled "Park Soo-hong got off and back on again: Korean Air delayed by one hour" was uploaded through an online community, with the poster claiming: "The departure of a Korean Air flight scheduled to leave Incheon International Airport for Guam last month was delayed by about one hour due to Park Soo-hong's family. They reversed their decision to disembark, resulting in checked luggage being unloaded and then reloaded." The claim stated that Park Soo-hong initially gave up boarding the flight to Guam due to his 22-month-old daughter's intense crying but later changed his mind, causing the departure delay.

According to passengers on the flight at the time, Park Soo-hong's family boarded the same plane along with comedian Lee Yong-sik and his family. While seated in business class, Park's family moved to the back of the economy section to soothe their crying daughter but requested voluntary disembarkation when the crying continued. It is reported that Park later apologized to passengers in business class.

Footage of Park Soo-hong apologizing was also shared on a travel cafe by one passenger seated nearby. However, some passengers who were riding in economy class claimed they only learned about the flight delay caused by Park's family's voluntary disembarkation after reading subsequent news reports.

As the controversy spread, Park Soo-hong personally apologized via his SNS on the 26th of last month.

Park stated: "Recently, a departure delay occurred due to our family during the flight departure process. This caused significant inconvenience by taking away many people's precious time and also caused damage to airline staff. For this, I sincerely apologize with my head bowed."

He continued: "At that time, the child was crying so intensely upon boarding that we could not take our seats immediately, leading to a hasty decision. Concerned that the child's crying would cause greater inconvenience to passengers during the long flight, we initially informed the onboard staff of our intention to disembark. However, after waiting on board and the child stopped crying, we expressed our desire to reboard without realizing this could significantly delay security checks and other procedures. This was entirely due to my ignorance of aviation-related procedures, leaving no room for any excuse." He bowed his head again.

He then said: "Once again, I deeply apologize with my head bowed to all passengers and airline staff who suffered significant harm due to my shortcomings."

Park Soo-hong registered his marriage with Kim Da-ye, who is 23 years younger than him, on the 23rd, 2021, and welcomed their daughter Jae-i in October 2024.
