Actor Park Sung Hoon recently faced controversy after sharing a parody Japanese AV (Adult Video) cover of his show 'Squid Game' on his social media, only to delete it swiftly. His agency has since issued an explanation.
On December 30th, Park’s social media account briefly featured an AV cover that graphically depicted multiple women in explicit scenes. The AV concept was a parody of 'Squid Game.' Although the post was quickly deleted, screenshots of it spread rapidly online.
While some netizens speculated that Park’s account may have been hacked, it was confirmed that the post was uploaded by Park himself. A representative from his agency, BH Entertainment, told DongA.com, “Park Sung Hoon received an overwhelming number of direct messages (DMs) on his social media. While checking the DMs, he accidentally uploaded the image.”
The agency added, “The actor himself was deeply shocked and feels extremely sorry for making such a mistake, especially in these circumstances. He will be more careful in the future to ensure this does not happen again.”
Meanwhile, Park Sung Hoon recently portrayed Hyun Joo, a transgender character awaiting gender confirmation surgery, in 'Squid Game' Season 2, which premiered on December 26th.
