[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Suwan] Singer Gahee shared photos of an outing at the beach with her children last month during the spread of the novel coronavirus, sparking controversy. She has since opened up about her current situation while undergoing self-quarantine after returning to Korea.


On the 14th, Gahee posted on her Instagram story, "14th day of self-quarantine after entering the country. All I can do is reflect, make resolutions, and pray."


She continued, "I sincerely apologize to everyone who was inconvenienced because of me. And I deeply bow my head in gratitude to everyone who comforted me."


Earlier, on the 23rd of last month, when photos taken with her children at a beach in Bali caused controversy on social media, she wrote, "The playground in front of my house is the sea, the park is the sea, and the mountain is the sea. Going out to the sea for a moment was just a parent's heart."


However, after criticism arose regarding her taking her children out during self-quarantine, Gahee deleted the post and photos.


Subsequently, she posted a statement expressing her feelings: "Please forgive my foolish words. I apologize to those who were disappointed in me."


At that time, Gahee said, "We will soon return to Korea for a short time. This place is becoming increasingly dangerous, testing is difficult, and if we get sick, it will be hard to leave, so we made this decision."


Below is the full text of Gahee’s Instagram post


14th day of self-quarantine after entering the country. Cooking, cleaning, cooking, cleaning, cooking, cleaning, washing, putting to bed. All I can do is reflect, make resolutions, and pray.



I sincerely apologize to everyone who was inconvenienced because of me. And I deeply bow my head in gratitude to everyone who comforted me.
