Park Sung Hoon is currently still considering an offer to star in a new drama with SNSD's Yoona titled "The Tyrant's Chef". However, the casting of the 1985-born actor is now being questioned after Sung Hoon's careless action of posting a vulgar photo on his personal Instagram account.
Previously, Sung Hoon uploaded a parody of the AV cover of "Squid Game 2" which he starred in. However, the cover showed vulgar images as it showed several Japanese actresses naked and engaging in forced sexual acts.
The post was quickly deleted and his agency, BH Entertainment quickly apologized. The agency also explained that Sung Hoon accidentally posted the photo. "Park Sung Hoon received a lot of DMs on social media and accidentally uploaded it while checking DMs," the agency wrote.
Sung Hoon was said to be shocked too when the photo was uploaded on his Instagram. "The actor himself was also shocked and apologized for making such a mistake in times like these. He will be careful so that something like this does not happen again," the agency continued.
Even though the agency has apologized, netizens did not immediately believe it. They maliciously accused Sung Hoon of possibly wanting to post the photo, but intended to share it with "close friends" only, instead of the public. Now, netizens are questioning Sung Hoon's casting in the drama with Yoona.
They hope that the casting and production have not been fully confirmed and that the character offered to Sung Hoon could be given to another actor. " Nah, I'm afraid they won't change the male lead, like please that guy shouldn't be near Yoona[sic!] ," wrote one netizen.
" I want this guy to stay away from Yoona. Find another actor to pair her with in the next drama[sic!] ," added another. " Thankfully this was revealed before filming started, it would have been hard for Yoona and the others if it was revealed in the middle of filming or after it was finished.
Hopefully YoonA doesn't work with a dangerous, problematic, and disgusting man [sic!] ," said another netizen. On the other hand, "The Tyrant's Chef" tells the story of a chef who, at the peak of his career, travels back in time. There, he meets a king who is known as the worst tyrant, but is also a culinary expert.
"The Tyrant's Chef" is a drama adapted from a web novel titled "Surviving as Yeonsan-gun's Chef". This time, the drama version will be directed by director Jang Tae Yoo, who previously worked on "My Love from the Star", "Hyena" and "Lovers of the Red Sky".
