"Single's Inferno" Choi Si Hun clears the air about his past host bar controversy once and for all. The model graced the YOURVIBES magazine and revealed the story behind the photo that started his scandal.
Choi Si Hun is now gaining traction, thanks to the success of Netflix's "Single's Inferno." However, as fame comes with controversies, how does the 29-year-old star handle it?
The rising star has been embroiled in a host bar scandal after photos of him at the bar circulated online. He revealed it all started with one malicious comment that tried to ruin his reputation, Koreaboo noted.
The comment quickly spread like wildfire. He explained he took the photo at a motor show as a part-time job and that snap went viral online in China with a headline, "host bar player."
It even ranked first on Weibo. Choi Si Hun continued he had a hard life then, only making 2 million won in two years.
So, he gets really annoyed every time he is being slandered during those times he endured. "It was following my explanation posts that the situation made headlines in Korea," he said.
He admitted he felt the need to explain himself after his denial, knowing the allegations weren't true. The reality star added his work ethic and personality by revealing his past as an actor trainee.
Choi Si Hun noticed the issues became too big that he just couldn't let it slide. He wanted to insist that it wasn't true as people who knew him just laughed about it.
He's confident that he's living a good life. He worked several jobs back then, but he never did any bad gigs.
In fact, he joined his fellow actor trainees then and studied together to achieve his acting dreams. Thankfully, he is now getting the attention he's deserving of after making an appearance in "Single's Inferno," per AllKpop.
In fact, he's not only famous in Korea but all over the world. Fans have loved him for his unchanging love for Song Ji Ah, who was also embroiled in a big scandal after news emerged that she was wearing fake signature clothes.
Talking about his experience in the hit Netflix dating series, he said he wanted to enjoy the show to the fullest. Knowing they were trapped on an island, Choi Si Hun felt completely absorbed. He also brushed on the issues about his final choice, saying he just chose the person he wanted the most.
