Cartoonist Lee Mal Nyeon, who appeared on 'My Little Television's live internet broadcast with Girl's Day's Yura this past Sunday, was forced to address all the negative and hateful comments toward the idol subsequent the broadcast. 

The netizens had left comments that went, "I don't understand why Yura prepared doing oil paintings when they take a long time to do," and, "Yura's critique on Lee Mal Nyeon's painting went over the line," raising their voices against the supposed attitude Yura displayed towards the cartoonist. 

As the criticism against Yura grew worse, Lee Mal Nyeon uploaded an explanation in defense of Yura and the 'My Little Television's production crew.

The writing began, "I'm a bit disconcerted that the gallery is so chaotic due to the broadcast. I'm usually not the type to explain myself in situations like these and tend to sit back but I'm uploading this because the objection towards the production team and Yura seem to be greater than the objection towards me."

Lee's letter further read, "I had a fun time during the filming so I felt pretty satisfied but I don't think that was the case for the viewers."

The letter also addressed the viewers' belief that he was angry due to Yura's behavior during the broadcast. He denied ever being angry, saying, "I'm typically expressionless when I'm listening to someone or thinking."

Lee then added, "I was so engaged in the broadcast that I wonder if I messed up the chemistry between us through using vocabulary that Yura didn't understand. I know that you are trying to support me but I'll be grateful if you'd refrain from being excessively critical toward Yura and the production team." 

Lee concluded with a short message to Yura and the production crew that went, "Everyone in production, you all worked hard yesterday. I was so happy that Yura was also a part of the broadcast."
