Actor Gong Hyung-jin (57) drew criticism from netizens for his rude behavior and remarks toward musical actress Cha Ji-yeon (44).

Gong Hyung-jin served as a surprise MC at the "Korea Radio 70th Anniversary Homecoming Day" held on the 17th at Seoul Hanyang University, teaming up with junior colleague Cha Ji-yeon.

On that day, after finishing her stage performance, Cha Ji-yeon confidently introduced herself, saying, "I am Cha Ji-yeon, who acts, performs in musicals, and sings in the Republic of Korea."

Gong Hyung-jin then appeared on stage. In response, Cha Ji-yeon offered a 90-degree bow, greeting him with, "Hello, senior."

However, at that moment, Gong Hyung-jin playfully said, "Come on, since I'm your senior, let's do the greeting again." Cha Ji-yeon then bowed her head once more to greet him.

Furthermore, when Cha Ji-yeon clenched both fists and shouted "Amen," Gong Hyung-jin retorted with, "Will you hit me in a little while?"

In addition, Gong Hyung-jin commented on Cha Ji-yeon's reaction by saying, "Why are you acting? Just do it like you normally do." In this manner, despite being at a formal event, Gong Hyung-jin used the informal pronoun "you" (ner) and casual speech forms such as "jiga" (that person/they) toward Cha Ji-yeon, prompting criticism from netizens.
