Netizens are not impressed at Cha Tae Hyun and Kim Jun Ho's gambling news.
Many are seeing it as taking the focus away from various things, including the political situation, Jang Ja Yeon's case being reopened, and even Seungri and Jung Joon Young.
Netizens pointed out, "I don't really care what they do with their own money. Aren't there bigger problems right now..?", "I'm not saying Cha Tae Hyun betting is a good thing, but why does it feel like the focus is being turned away?", "Jung Joon Young's phone was confiscated to investigate the distribution of illegal videos, prostitution, and his ties to the police, but why is something like this, which is unrelated, being distributed? Even in court, when something unrelated comes out, even if it's illegal, they are not questioned and are kept in secret. Is this really something for the 9 o' clock news to handle? Is all the media can do talk about golf betting? What a disappointment", "They're trying hard to turn the focus away. Seungri's articles and Jang Ja Yeon's articles are all gone", and more.
Others are saying that what the pair did is not even a problem: "I don't get what the problem is. Is it a crime to bet on a game of golf with your friends..?", "Is it really necessary for him to leave like this?", etc.
What do you think about their point?
I agree with them, them betting each other isn't considered illegal in any way. They're up against each other and not doing any harm to each other. Besides it looks playful; it does feel like this whole situation is trying to divert the biggest controversy ever to other celebs who's done the smallest mistakes ever.
