[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Suwan] Actor Park Sihoo's side apologized, saying "We are sorry for causing misunderstanding" after Park Sihoo caused controversy by saying "sexy" to a co-star at a production presentation.

On the 15th, Park Sihoo's side told OSEN, "Yesterday, Park Sihoo mentioned the word 'exposure,' which seemed inappropriate."

They added, "The atmosphere at the event was not bad. It was not meant in that way but was a remark to ease the awkward mood. It seems the expression was excessive out of affection for the drama. We apologize for causing misunderstanding due to the inappropriate use of words."

Earlier, TV Chosun live-streamed the weekend drama 'Wind, Clouds, and Rain' production presentation online on the 14th.

MC Park Kyunglim, who hosted the presentation, asked, "Please pick one scene that is most memorable."

In response, Go Seonghee said, "I am a mysterious character. It is difficult to decide how much exposure I should show."

Hearing this, Park Sihoo said, "There is an exposure scene of Bongryeon (played by Go Seonghee). You can expect a very provocative and sexy exposure scene. I am very much looking forward to it."

This led to criticism among netizens that Park Sihoo made inappropriate remarks about the female co-star.

Meanwhile, Park Sihoo was accused of sexual assault in 2013 and underwent prosecution investigation. At that time, Park Sihoo was accused of bringing Kim Mo and aspiring entertainer A, who was intoxicated, to his home and sexually assaulting and forcibly molesting them, respectively.
