BLACKPINK’s Jisoo co-star sued for sexist behavior?

Previously, a topic exposing actor Park Jung-min’s sexist behavior and mentality was posted on the SNS X (formerly Twitter) platform. The post quickly gained attention and has since become a hot topic on both Korean forums and international platforms.

The topic identified a total of 6 main allegations, as detailed below:

First, Park Jung-min is a fan of the girl group QWER, whose members have displayed anti-feminist sentiments during live streaming in the past.

Secondly, Park Jung-min once sang a Black Nut song during a movie premiere, with offensive lyrics such as: “I told my mom I would come home with a bus full of prostitutes,” despite the fact that numerous high school girls participated in the first one.

Third, during the first edition of his self-published essay, Park Jung-min mentioned the movie “Architecture 101” and described Suzy’s character as a “gold digger.” This excerpt was eventually removed from the second and third editions of the essay.

Fourth, the actor also described former co-star Moon Geun-young in an offensive manner. In particular, speaking about her, Park Jung-min said, “I don’t know why I continue to only be chosen by men. I also want to work with actresses,” which essentially devalues ​​the actress’s identity as a woman.

Fifth, it justified the male tradition of not doing any housework during holidays in Korea. According to the actor of the time, lying down is in the male gender.

Sixth, Park Jung-min is close to a person who used extremely offensive terms to describe female genitalia. Meanwhile, another friend of his drew a comic about dating a feminist, which included a graphic scene of the feminist getting punched in the face.

As the discussion continues, Park Jung-min’s side has yet to address any of the above-mentioned allegations.

Since he will star alongside BLACKPINK’s Jisoo in the K-drama “Newtopia”, many are worried that such an issue will negatively affect the work.
