Yesterday was Korea’s public holiday “Liberation Day”to commemorate the victory of the war against Japan. Actor Jang Dong-gun’s family went to Japan for a trip, and his wife Ko So-young even posted a number of tourists’ check-in photos, which caused a lot of criticism on the Korean Internet.
Gao Surong posted several family travel photos on his personal IG PO on the 15th. Japanese menus, Japanese shops, street scenes, etc. can be seen in the background. It seems that a family of four traveled to Japan. It’s not a big deal for an artist to share travel photos, but yesterday was Liberation Day. Gao Surong’s move quickly aroused criticism on the Korean Internet.
Korean netizen: “I also use IG, and others are posting photos of Taegeukgi (the South Korean flag), what about her?”Will I get sick if I endure it for a day and post it again?””Traveling to Japan with children during Liberation Day is really an excellent education.””If you have money, buy a brain first.”It’s stupid to continue posting the next day, it’s really stupid” “Don’t you even know that today is Liberation Day?” Why do you have to show the fact of traveling to Japan on Liberation Day? If you must go, keep a low profile.”
A netizen revealed that Gao Surong only had this one photo PO post and closed the comment area at the beginning, but the related photo still sparked discussion in online forums, and the media also reported the poor public opinion, and then Gao Surong deleted the related PO post.
However, Gao Surong’s behavior of deleting photos without saying a word also caused criticism. Today, she finally apologized formally on the IG limit: “Sorry for the inconvenience caused to everyone on the important day. Although it was deleted immediately after realizing it, but still It’s too late. I will be more cautious in the future.”This apology still caused criticism, because: IG will disappear after 24 hours, and as a Korean citizen, he refuses to mention the word “Liberation Day”and only says “Important day”, the apology was very short and emoji was added at the end, which seemed very frivolous.
In addition, Gao Surong was born in 1972, debuted in 1992, married actor Jang Dong Gun in 2010, and now has a son and a daughter. His last work was in 2017 as the heroine “Shim Jae Bok”in the KBS drama “The Perfect Wife”.
