Lee Jun Ki criticized for flirty attitude on variety while in a relationship with Jun Hye Bin
 

 

Article: Lee Jun Ki is in a 'real relationship' but he should've had a basic level of respect

1. [+658, -45] The people who are saying a variety is just a variety aren't wrong... but Lee Jun Ki is not a rookie, he's high enough in his career that he can turn down shows if he doesn't want to do them. Obviously he agreed to do this show, right? If he has a girlfriend, he shouldn't have agreed to it... I don't care if it's all scripted or if it's just a variety show, it's basic respect ã… 

2. [+631, -43] The reason he's getting hate is #1 he lied to the producers #2 he flirted with Park Min Young under the guise of wanting to change up his image and pick up some romance genre works... There has never been another person on this show as aggressive as Lee Jun Ki was with the flirting. And to think he had a girlfriend this entire time... No one would've cared if he stayed within the lines but he didn't tsk tsk tsk.

3. [+524, -32] The article's right, that's why he's getting hate

4. [+61, -3] I'm an Lee Jun Ki fan myself but he really is being disrespectful to the viewers of the show with this, it's frustrating

5. [+58, -0] I know so many people are saying it's just a variety show, let it go, but what we're asking is why he felt the need to act and turn a variety into his own drama. Even the producers thought it'd be disrespectful to the viewers and canceled the next episode.

6. [+51, -1] Lee Jun Ki really was way too flirty on the show compared to the other cast members... I'm glad that Park Min Young didn't seem too invested in the show. If only Lee Jun Ki didn't go so over the top...

7. [+47, -0] This article has a point. Even if it's just a variety show, the show's concept allowed Lee Jun Ki a lot of room to just be honest in opening up with other people. He could've just been like "When I had a girlfriend, such and such happened" but instead he kept flirting like "You're making my heart flutter" and "It's been such a while since I've been in a relationship"... it's all these lies that are making us uncomfortable.

8. [+30, -1] Really just puts Park Min Young and Jun Hye Bin in awkward positions

9. [+28, -0] If you're wondering why the public is so harsh over every little mistake celebrities make, it's because celebrities lie over every little thing to us and cause scandals and come back thinking it's all okay

10. [+27, -0] If any of you saw the way Park Min Young reacted to his words, you'd know that she wasn't just acting. I related so much to her reactions that I replayed their scenes over and over... It's really unfair that Lee Jun Ki was pretty much practicing his romcom desires on a variety show with an unknowing participant.

I still don't really get what the problem is...variety shows are scripted entertainment, not real glimpses into how celebrities really think and feel.

[nsfwwww]

Omg get the fuck over it

[diamandis]

move on hoe

[Binggeul✯☽]

Well he is an actor, and these types of shows are scripted anyway.

[mochichan]

What if his girlfriend is ok with it tho? 

[Ddeona Oneul Bame]

JUNKI CAN PLOW MEEEEEE

[jaeten's bae]

welp, he aint getting an out of this one easily, even though the show isnt supposed to be real

[wiaraewiwiarae]

It's scripted, he was acting. I really see no problem.

[ana1234]

 ,,You're making my heart flutter" and "It's been such a while since I've been in a relationship"... it's all these lies that are making us uncomfortable''.

These comments make me want to check out this show but I'm afraid I'll end up hating on LJK too lol... jk. It ended up not being good career move but netz need to not act like he's the next Kim HyungJoon or something.

[nutella]

both him and PMY were doing this for exposure not to start a relationship. Variety is scripted. 

[WinWin_at]

dumb comments

[JiMiJu]

A non-issue.

[Hyooga]

lmao people in this thread thinking they understand the context and nuances of the issue

 

why are you acting as if the Korean viewers don't understand that varieties are staged? it's not like they don't. i bet most of you telling these people to get over it never watched the episode anyway nor understand the stuff Jun Ki did which triggered them lmao

[eternal glow]

It's awkward for the people directly involved like PMY and JHB but if the viewers are bothered, then that's their issue LOL. I just feel kinda bad for JHB but like if they've been together for 2 years, I'm pretty sure she knew he was going on the show and was cool with it...

[�SHERRY�]

meh this hate will be temporary cos it's nothing and he's a talented and famous actor and seriously LET IT GO knets, his gf is probably dont even care that he acted like that on variety show.

[honeypri]

well..dude got paid to do this and he's an actor. it was the viewers problem if they cant tell the difference between  "reality shows" and  real life.

[kyum]

Wtf they're so petty. He's an actor and these kind of dating shows are obviously scripted

[thefacts]

Idiotic comments. His fans are just pissed off that he is dating.

[glazeddonut]

sometimes its not the image that celebrity creates for themselves that cause trouble. its that people want them to be certain person and then get upset when they didnt meet their own expectation

[tya]

IMO I would still watch this episode because they seem really sweet even though it's acting for the most part lol

[khyve]

It couldn't possibly be that his girlfriend understands the needs of his profession. Obviously, as a woman, she is just a beautiful flower, incapable of protecting herself and her own psyche.

 

 

If his girlfriend's pissed because of how he acted on a show, I'm sure she can deal with it herself.

 

[Mogwai]

Well. I suppose at the very least this shows that he's a convincing actor
