Whoops, slip of the finger...? Just when the news of IU and Chang Kiha's relationship came out, singer Yoo Jae Hwan found himself in some hot water through a mistake he apologized for afterwards on October 8.
It appears that he clicked "like" on an article link on Facebook that linked back to Chang Kiha's appearance on 19+ talk show, JTBC's 'Witch Hunt,' in which he talked about how he "loses during the day and loses during the night." The phrase means that rather than being dominant, he is submissive throughout the whole day to his girlfriend. There was also a sexual post that had been posted all of a sudden under that article. All of this sparked a fire with Yoo Jae Hwan as the target.

One netizen wrote, "As a fan, this article makes me makes me extremely angry." Yoo Jae Hwan wrote on Facebook as a response:
"I am so sorry. I pressed the 'like' button by mistake. Seriously, I will put everything on the line when I say that I had no idea I had pressed the 'like' button. As I know I have almost 70,000 followers on my Facebook, I'm aware that my pressing 'like' would promote that post and become an issue, so I have never pressed 'like' before (in real life, I really have never pressed 'like' on Facebook).
"When I first found out I had pressed it by accident, it was about 5:30. I got the message and was so surprised, so I immediately went there to cancel the 'like' and, in order to stop it from becoming more news, I quickly disabled it.
"The reason I mulled over whether I had to explain this for three hours is that the content had many likes and dislikes and it was so deep, so from the moment I explained, that writing might become even more of an issue; I'm sorry. Whenever I'm with my friends, I'm the type to never make sex jokes even if there were a knife at my throat in case my character might seem bad. I'm so sorry about what happened. I relay my apologies."
The netizen who had relayed his or her displeasure at the "like" read his sincere-sounding apology and accepted it with no hard feelings, relaying support for Yoo Jae Hwan. The incident appeared to have wrapped up well!
