Singer JK Kim Dong-wook, known as a Korean-Canadian, is causing a stir by directly targeting actor Lee Dong-wook by name.
Previously, it was reported that JK Kim Dong-wook holds Canadian citizenship and is known as a Korean-Canadian. Born in South Korea, he spent his childhood in Seoul before immigrating to Canada during high school and acquiring local citizenship.
Notably, as a foreign national exempt from military service, he is known to not even hold voting rights in South Korea, while he is raising his voice politically, causing a stir. This is due to his public support for former President Yoon Suk-yeol, as he has actively opposed impeachment. It is not common for entertainers to show political colors, but he has actively participated in gatherings opposing the impeachment of President Yoon Suk-yeol and voiced sharp remarks through his personal social media, expressing support for President Yoon Suk-yeol.
In response, JK Kim Dong-wook recently expressed anger over the news of former President Yoon Suk-yeol's impeachment. This time, he is fueling further controversy by directly targeting the name of a fellow entertainer. Actor Lee Dong-wook, after the impeachment of former President Yoon Suk-yeol, added the song "The World We Met Again" by girl group Girls' Generation to the official fan communication community, prompting JK Kim Dong-wook to strike back.
In response, JK Kim Dong-wook revealed his discomfort by saying, "Hyung, what should I do now? What do I do, Dong-wook? Why ask what will change until we fight again? Me? Shouldn't a person doing music be suppressed to a certain extent to create genuine music?"
In response, netizens are pouring out criticism such as, "Why is a Canadian doing this?", "Don't interfere in the politics of another country," and "Targeting a fellow entertainer by name has crossed the line."
