Dec 26, 2024

Singer Lim Young-woong's year-end concert is just a day away. Attention is focusing on his mouth, which has been embroiled in controversy over the impeachment period "What?"

Lim Young-woong will hold a solo performance 'Lim Young-woong Recital' at Gocheok Sky Dome from the 27th to January 4th next year. Regardless of his controversy, the concert was all sold out, proving its unchanged popularity.

Lim Young-woong, who has more than 400,000 followers, has recently been embroiled in controversy after the DM was released. On the 3rd, Lim Young-woong posted a post congratulating his dog's birthday on his personal account on Yoon Suk Yeol's emergency martial law situation, of which one netizen sent a DM saying, `What are you doing in this situation?' and Lim Young-woong replied "What is it?" In response, the entire nation is gathered over the impeachment of the president, who was declared unconstitutional, and I don't even want to speak out, but I'm really insensitive. Let's point out again that the age group who went through martial law earlier is your main consumer. "Am I a politician. Why are you speaking up?" he reportedly answered, sparking controversy.

Initially, the post was known to be a DM sent by a popular entertainment program producer, but the producer explained that he had never sent a DM to Lim Young-woong. Later, it was revealed that the first person to write this post was a member of a famous female grasshopper cafe. This Yeocho cafe is famous for its radical feminism, support for certain political parties, and hatred of men.

The author deleted the article, but Lim Young-woong and his agency have yet to express any position on the controversy. As a result, public criticism continued to grow. Culture critic Kim Kap-soo said on the podcast 「"Maebul Show"Having reserved his attitude on the invocation of the martial law is as if there was a genocide somewhere."Isn't that possible?It's the same as saying '. 'Am I a politician? Why should I be interested?' This attitude is a lack of basic civic skills. He strongly criticized that he is not qualified as a Korean who has made a difficult history of democracy." Then Choi Wook "I have no desire to be close to Lim Young-woong. I hate it so much," he even mentioned his real name.

In addition, a netizen filed a complaint with Pocheon City's National Newspaper saying, `Please actively consider canceling the appointment of a public relations ambassador, such as clearly grasping the authenticity of Lim Young-woong's DM remarks.'

However, there was no big blow to Lim Young-woong's fandom. The number of members of the "Hero Generation" fancafe has not changed much, and the concert is also still popular, with tickets trading from 250,000 won. Sales of products using Lim Young-woong as models are not falling or there is a boycott movement, and they still remain at the top of the trot singer brand reputation. As a result, attention is being paid to whether Lim Young-woong will mention the controversy at the concert.
