This week's episode of 'Hot Brothers' has created some controversy, as veteran gag woman Lee Kyung Shil starred as the guest along with MC and variety star, Hyun Young.
The MBC show 'Hot Brothers' is a show where one person, also known as the 'owner', controls the words and actions of another person, known as an 'avatar', through the use of microphones and earphones during a fake setting such as a dinner date or a cafe.
The two female guests, Lee Kyung Shil and Hyun Young, were the main 'avatars' of the show, and they go on a dinner date with a 21-year-old male student, Lee Gil. Tak Jae Hun was the 'owner' of Lee Kyung Shil, while Park Myung Soo controlled Hyun Young.
It was during this dinner date from which the controversy sparked, as many viewers complained about the behavior of Lee Kyung Shil.
The main rule of the show is that no matter what the circumstances, the avatar must follow every instruction that their owner commands. However, Lee Kyung Shil chose to ignore Tak Jae Hun's commands right from the beginning, and decided to say her own remarks and ad-libs, making it an uncomfortable situation for her owner.
Lee Kyung Shil's mistakes did not end here though, as whenever she ignored Tak Jae Hun's instructions, he attempts to tell her off by continuously repeating "Lee Kyung Shil-ssi!" in frustration, but the gag woman's reply was "Is Lee Kyung Shil-ssi all you can say?!", expressing her annoyance at his commands.
It is true that there are times in other episodes where the 'avatar' fails to follow the instructions of their 'owner' once or twice out of embarrassment, but it was the consistent ignoring from Lee Kyung Shil's side that annoyed the viewers of the show. As a result, an overflowing number of complaints in various internet community sites have surfaced, saying that her arrogant behavior ruined the purpose of the dinner date, and thus, the show.
Other netizens have expressed that it was not surprising to see Lee Kyung Shil behave this way, as her normal personality is usually a very demanding type who does not like to be instructed by other people. However, many netizens believe that one must know how to keep their personal and public lives separate, and that as a guest for the variety show program, a veteran like her should have known when to pull her own jokes and when to keep to the concept of the show.
