Taiwanese entertainer reportedly fired over his inappropriate comments toward LE SSERAFIM

AKP STAFF

A Taiwanese entertainer who allegedly made sexually inappropriate comments towards LE SSERAFIM announced that he had lost his job. 

On January 31st, Huang Weijin updated his personal social media saying he lost his job but he is not discouraged as it's a new year and he will be looking for a new job. His colleagues Ivy Lee, Xiao Kui, and more left encouraging comments under his post.  

Previously on January 27th, he made inappropriate comments toward LE SSERAFIM while hosting the '2024 Taiwan Superstar Red and White Entertainment Awards.' His co-host quickly interrupted him following his remark. 

While he explained what he actually meant following the incident, however, many netizens criticized him. It seems he lost his show in response to the public outcry.

Bit surprised that cost him his job, it wasn't that bad a comment, he realised what he'd said and apologised straight after explaining what he meant. I'm sure we've all said things that afterwards we realised could be misconstrued or didn't actually sound the way it was supposed to.

.

Who'd be in entertainment eh? Careers seem to be at risk over so many things.
