Social studies instructor Lee Do, who gained public recognition through his appearance on the Netflix reality show “I’ve Never Dated but I Want to,” has been embroiled in controversy after suspending his lectures ahead of the CSAT. All of his lectures and student reviews have disappeared from the Etoos website.

According to Etoos’ official website on the 10th, the number of courses listed on Lee Do’s instructor profile page has dropped from the previous 17 to zero. Additionally, all approximately 100 student reviews of his lectures have been removed from the public list.

Previously, on the 29th of last month, Lee Do announced that he would be unable to complete his Korean Geography and World Geography lectures for the 2027 College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT) preparation due to deteriorating health. His declaration of a lecture suspension just three weeks before the CSAT led to confusion and criticism among examinees.

However, just one week after announcing the suspension, Lee Do attended the press conference for the Netflix reality show “Devil’s Plan: Dead Again” on the 5th, followed by news that he had opened a personal YouTube channel, sparking backlash from some students.

Criticism poured in over whether it was appropriate to continue external activities, such as promoting broadcasts, while failing to complete CSAT preparation lectures due to health issues.

As the controversy grew, Etoos issued an apology on its official website on the 9th. The company stated, “On October 29, a notice in the name of Instructor Lee Do informed students that he would not be conducting the remaining lectures for this year,” adding, “We had been coordinating schedules with the instructor and supporting filming to ensure the lectures continued normally, but the agreed-upon schedule was ultimately not kept due to the instructor’s circumstances. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused to your studies.”

As controversy over the lecture suspension continues, attention is turning to Lee Do’s future status after all his courses and student reviews have disappeared from the Etoos website. However, Etoos has not disclosed specific details regarding whether its contract with Lee Do has been terminated.

Meanwhile, Lee Do graduated from the Department of Geography Education at Seoul National University College of Education, where he taught Korean Geography and World Geography at Etoos. He became known to the public through his appearance on the Netflix dating reality show “I’ve Never Dated but I Want to,” released last year, and will also appear in “Devil’s Plan: Dead Again,” which is set to be released on the 10th.
