As actress Kim Ji-young visited the wake of the late Choi Bul-am to express her condolences, an unexpected debate erupted over the outfit she wore at the time.

On the 30th of last month, Kim Ji-young visited the wake of the late Choi Bul-am, set up at the Asan Medical Center funeral home in Songpa-gu, Seoul, accompanied by her husband, actor Nam Seung-jin.

On that day, Kim Ji-young wore a black leather jacket, dark-colored skinny jeans, and white sneakers. She paired the look with a bag adorned with gold chain decorations, and her relatively heavy makeup also drew attention.

Subsequently, as images of Kim Ji-young at the wake were released online, the debate over her attire continued. Pointers emerged that her outfit was somewhat inappropriate, considering the nature of the location being a funeral home.

On the other hand, there were also reactions arguing that it is excessive to judge one's heart for mourning based solely on the attire of a mourner. It has been pointed out that excessively criticizing an individual's clothing is inappropriate.

Kim Ji-young and Nam Seung-jin had maintained a special bond with the late Choi Bul-am, having worked closely with him for a long time through the MBC drama "Country Diary."

After visiting the wake, Kim Ji-young paid tribute to the late actor in an interview with reporters, saying, "He was both a father and a teacher. I have always been grateful, and he was truly a precious and valuable person to us, but it is so regrettable that we can no longer see him. I will pray for his peaceful rest."

Nam Seung-jin also said, "To us, he was like a mentor who taught us so much beyond just the life of an actor. It is hard to believe. I hope he has gone to a good place and is resting peacefully." After finishing the interview, Kim Ji-young turned around and shed tears, while Nam Seung-jin patted her shoulder to comfort her.

Meanwhile, the late Choi Bul-am passed away around 10:30 p.m. on the 29th of last month while receiving treatment at a hospital in Gangseo-gu, Seoul. He was 87 years old.

The late actor's funeral was held for five days as a Green Umbrella Children's Foundation funeral, and the exhumation ceremony and funeral mass were conducted on the 2nd of this month. The burial site is Donghwa Gyeongmo Park in Paju, Gyeonggi Province.
