Super Junior's Heechul recently stumbled on slanted rumors that he was in conflict with actor Namgoong Min. On Tuesday July 4, 2023, a video featuring Heechul was uploaded on the TEO YouTube channel. In the video, MC Jang Do Yeon asks Heechul, "Are there any rumors you want to clarify?"
Hearing this question, Heechul mentioned one of the previous episodes of the tvN variety show "Life Bar", where he appeared with actor Namgoong Min as a guest. At that time, Heechul and Namgoong Min were shown as if they didn't get along and threw sarcasm at each other.
Due to the spread of these rumors, Heechul wanted to clarify that it was all just a misunderstanding. "I became close to Nam Goongmin hyung and contacted him saying, 'This is fun'. But then, people misunderstood and thought that we had a bad relationship.
People thought pickles were real and Namgoong Min felt guilty. So I said that's not true. I think we can also think of it as something fun," Heechul said as quoted from KBIZoom July 4, 2023. Next, Heechul explained that the controversy surrounding him and Namgoong Min was bigger than he thought at the time.
He felt guilty because many people thought that he and Namgoong Min didn't get along, even though the opposite was true. Heechul even came to Namgoong Min's wedding and contacted him frequently. Jang Do Yeon confessed, "I was also almost deceived because Namgoong Min is an actor and he has a good poker face."
Heechul is a member of Super Junior who is known as an entertainer who likes to speak outspokenly so he often gets criticized for his words. In February, Heechul was criticized for defending his groupmate, Kangin, who was hit with a DUI (drunk driving) case.
At that time, Heechul was a guest star on BJ Choi's live streaming show on AfreecaTV. In addition, he was also criticized for swearing during the discussion on school violence in the broadcast. Due to the controversy, Heechul wrote an apology through his Instagram.
