Park Sung Hoon’s NSFW Scandal Fuels Recast Demands in K-Drama A Tyrant’s Chef with YoonA

‘Squid Game’ Season 2 recently premiered on Netflix, and while some stars are boosting their careers, others are facing strange incidents. Park Sung Hoon, who plays Player 120, caused a stir after accidentally posting an adult video cover with nudity and a ‘Squid Game’ theme on his social media.

At first, people thought his account was hacked, but it was later confirmed to be a mistake. His agency, BH Entertainment, explained that Park had been overwhelmed with messages and accidentally uploaded inappropriate images. Park apologized and promised to be more careful in the future. But the controversy is far from over.

The incident sparked a lot of backlash from fans, who are now calling for him to be replaced in an upcoming K-drama where he was set to star alongside YoonA.

It was previously announced that Park Sung Hoon would be paired with YoonA in a new K-drama called ‘The Tyrant’s Chef,’ and fans were excited about the combination, as both are known for their great acting. However, after his recent controversy, fans are now asking the production team to recast his role with a different actor, and many are suggesting potential replacements.

Even though Park Sung Hoon’s PR team shared the following statement, it might have come too late:

His representative stated the following:

Actor Park accidentally posted the image, which he received in a direct message, by mistakenly pressing the wrong button. The actor himself was also very shocked [at what happened].

He is deeply sorry for making such a mistake in these circumstances and promises to be especially careful to ensure it doesn’t happen again.
