[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bong-ju] Comedian Park Mi-sun criticized BJ Cheol-gu.

On the 4th, Park Mi-sun posted on Instagram a screenshot of an article related to Cheol-gu's remarks along with the message, "Who are you? Before criticizing my appearance, look in the mirror first and then talk. I've experienced all sorts of things in life. Think before you speak; that's why you have a brain."

Earlier, Cheol-gu connected a video call with another BJ during a live broadcast the previous day.

When a female BJ said, "You look like Hong Rok-gi," Cheol-gu responded, "Park Ji-sun, please get lost."

When netizens pointed out that this was insulting the appearance of the late Park Ji-sun, Cheol-gu said, "Because they said I look like Hong Rok-gi. Due to the nature of Korea, things tend to get blown out of proportion. I wasn't talking about Park Ji-sun. I was talking about Park Mi-sun."

Nevertheless, netizens continued to demand an apology for the remark.

Then Cheol-gu said, "I think I spoke without thinking too much. I meant to talk about Park Mi-sun, and I apologize."
