Choi Min-sik bowed to impeachment 'A cheer stick on asphalt, sorry to young people'



Actor Choi Min-sik bowed his head, expressing his regret to citizens who are participating in a rally to impeach President Yoon Suk Yeol.

The 25th Busan Film Critics Association Award was held at the Small Theater of the Seoul Cinema Center on the 13th. Choi Min-sik, who won the Best Male Actor Award for his work "Pillow", went on stage to make his acceptance speech.

`I really don't want everyone to have a happy weekend tomorrow,' Choi Min-sik said. `I want to say this on the one hand. It is said to be the light stick, the impeachment stick wielded by many young friends despite such frustration and pain on the ground. I was so sorry to see the light stick. as an older generation. I showed them this ridiculous world again. I've experienced it twice in my life. I didn't expect to experience it again after the 60th birthday." He expressed mixed feelings about the impeachment crisis, which began with an emergency martial law on the 3rd.

Choi Min-sik said, `I felt so sorry when I saw these ridiculous situations as these young friends waved their cheering sticks on the cold asphalt, smiling on the outside and like a concert. I wanted to say sorry to those friends. I'm sorry."

In the aftermath of Yoon Suk Yeol's emergency martial law, citizens are taking to the streets to call for impeachment of the president. In particular, K-pop idol fans shone their idol light sticks during the candlelight protest, leading to another protest trend.



Meanwhile, the re-decision on the impeachment motion of President Yoon Suk Yeol will take place at 4 p.m. on the 14th.
