My thoughts? Let me just say this…it really bothers me when writers try to grab our attention by headlining an article by saying Je Hoon Lee “skips” Busan Film Festival…Yes, they later give the explanation, however, that one word ,”skips,” gives a negative impression of the actor before we know what happened. It’s a classic “click bate” headline but it’s offensive to this very popular, kind and professional actor. I’m offended for him and his fans but do wish him a speedy recovery and all the best!
