While the view was partially blocked, fans and viewers could not believe what just happened before their eyes.
— mimi (@ilybusters) December 10, 2019 The broadcasting station EBS released an apology to the viewers and claimed that no violence took place. However, that did not deter netizens from criticizing the show and comedian Choi YoungSoo. And just recently afterwards, Choi sat down for an interview. The comedian defended himself and stated that he couldn’t believe how the situation turned so serious over what he felt was just a joke. Of course, this did not sit too well with netizens as he was criticized even harsher than before.
“Things are going to get this serious? I can’t believe it. I feel so wronged. A petition has been made and I’ve decided to just leave the show. Today was actually a recording day. While I was getting, I got a message. It said goodbye. The staff members of ‘Boni Hani’ also cried. They are also speechless right now. So am I. I should at least be given the chance to explain myself whether it’s through ‘Boni Hani’, or the official live streaming account of ‘Boni Hani’, giving me a chance to say sorry for displaying behavior that might have caused misunderstanding even if I did nothing wrong.” Clearly, the comedian feels he did nothing wrong. One netizen added that he or she had a bad feeling about the show after seeing the video clip below.
