The Jongwon Baek of crisis has come under fire again recently for clarifying the use of pesticide containers.
Kim Jae-hwan, a PD from MBC's liberal arts bureau, revealed his interview with Jongwon Baek, who he recently met in person, on his YouTube channel on the 8th.
On the 3rd, CEO Baek returned home from filming the entertainment program 'Business Genius White Sands 3' in France and confronted PD Kim, who visited the airport.
Producer Kim is a person who raised suspicions about CEO Baek's overuse of power, and in a previous video, he said that CEO Baek, who had been receiving a series of love calls from broadcasters since 2015 'My Little Television', has changed "If you don't like him, you should drop him from the broadcast and the producer apologized to the cast instead"
When PD Kim introduced himself, CEO Baek said, `Why can't you live with me. What's wrong with me. What's wrong with you?" "I also have a lot of unfair things. But aren't you still there?" he protested.
Producer Kim responded, "(The Bourbon Korea) franchise owners must be frustrated. When he pointed out that it's a problem to demonize the owners by saying, "Isn't it a problem that they're talking about hygiene?" CEO Baek said, "Why are you talking about the owners?" You can't say that."
CEO Baek then said "I've never been personally harsh to the owners of 'Alley Restaurant."I had to do so. I have to tell you clearly that I did something wrong.'

As a result, there are conflicting opinions online. Some netizens commented, `Why do you put human-eating apple juice in a pesticide container covered with industrial bonds or oil in the first place?' `The Jongwon Baek's explanation that if it's new, it's okay is more problematic.' `Why do you put human-eating food in a container that is not authorized by the Food and Drug Administration?' A YouTuber also purchased a new pesticide container used by Jongwon Baek and disclosed the filthy internal hygiene conditions even after washing three times.
Another netizen posted a video in the past in which Jongwon Baek angered the boss who drills flour dough into a plastic water purifier container during the broadcast of 『Alley Restaurant』, calling it an "internal fire," saying "The microplastics are scratched on the floor and can be eaten by consumers."
CEO Baek told PD Kim, "I've lived my life to this day. I've lived my life truthfully"Give me the PD's phone number. Tomorrow will do. Instead, he said, `Without a camera,' and said, `We'll see each other separately in private.
Producer Kim refused, saying, `I want to put off seeing you privately,' but CEO Baek "Is there anything you want to do. See you tomorrow. Without a camera, just the two of us. This is not private. The word private is so bad. Let's meet and get through the first step.'
Producer Kim reportedly met with CEO Baek one-on-one at 3 p.m. on the 4th, the day after the interview, and held talks for about 4 hours and 30 minutes. He announced that he would release the information on the 12th.
Meanwhile, the controversy surrounding CEO Baek and Dubon Korea began with 'Backham Controversy' earlier this year. Since then, various controversies have been raised at the festival, including Brazilian chicken meal kits, low citrus beer content, sniping and retaliating for apples in the budget market, cooking rusty engine oil drums, backdabang plastic containers, and unilateral notification of the use of festival portrait rights, as well as the use of industrial scissors, pork left at room temperature, pesticide container apple juice, and more recently 'chicken bone fryer'.
CEO Baek apologized for various controversies on the 6th and expressed his intention to stop all broadcasting activities and focus on the company's management.
