Kim Hye-eun posted a handwritten letter on her account on the morning of the 4th, saying, `I leave a letter at the time when all the votes are counted in the hope that it will not interfere with the time to fully watch the people's choices.'
"I sincerely apologize to everyone who felt uncomfortable or hurt by my writing on May 31st."For those who have watched me for a long time and for those who have unexpectedly felt disappointed and uncomfortable after seeing the article, I am deeply reflecting on myself, recognizing that I am fully responsible for the emotion."
In the meantime, "As a person who has spoken for a long time, I once again learn the weight of horses through this work. I will not forget that realization and become an actor who catches everyone by himself"From now on, I will think more deeply about the impact of my thoughts and expressions on society as an actor, and I will be careful and responsible as a public figure."," he said.
Finally, he added, `As a people who love the Republic of Korea, I support the happier Korea than anyone else, the developed Korea, and the future of the Republic of Korea standing tall in the world.'
Earlier on the 31st of last month, Kim Hye-eun wrote in her account, `I don't think I've ever been ashamed of my academic background as I was yesterday and today. I want to say sorry on behalf of you" caused a stir by posting an article. Kim Hye-eun is known to be a graduate of Seoul National University's vocal music department, and Yoo is known to be an alumnus of Seoul National University's economics department.
The article was interpreted as a criticism of former chairman Yoo's remarks referring to former Gyeonggi Province Governor Kim Moon-soo's spouse Seol Nan-young on the YouTube channel 「Kim Eo-jun's Dasböda」 on May 28. Former chairman Yoo caused controversy over women, workers, and academic background by saying, `The position of a potential presidential candidate spouse of a strong political party is something that can hardly be reached in Seol Nan-young's life,' and `He became a wife of a lawmaker after living a rough life.'
In this regard, former Chairman Yoo explained that it was my fault that the expression was rough and that what Seol Nan-young was doing was to cut her husband's vote.
However, Kim Hye-eun expressed respect for Seol, saying, `A woman who has done her best in her place with sincerity,' and criticized, `She is not a rotten intellectual who lives a arrogant and poor class consciousness that demeans high school graduates.'
Since then, Kim Hye-eun's remarks have been criticized, saying, "'Wasn't you ashamed during the martial law days' and 'selective anger', and Kim Hye-eun deleted the article and blocked the comment function.
