Actor Kim Sung Cheol has admitted his mistake and issued an apology.

Recently, Kim Sung Cheol became embroiled in controversy after participating in a vote on an SNS account related to girl group members. The post included a video of a girl group performance, with a slow-motion effect that provocatively exposed the female artist's body.

In response, on the morning of the 3rd, Kim Sung Cheol's agency, Story J Company, stated to Star News, "We had no idea that the SNS post was related to controversial or provocative content. After realizing the issue, we immediately canceled it."


The agency continued, "We sincerely apologize for the careless action that seems to have caused harm to the artists mentioned in the content. We have already delivered an apology through the artists' agencies. We deeply regret and apologize for the situation. We are truly sorry for causing concern, and we will be much more cautious in our future social media activities to ensure that such mistakes do not happen again."


Kim Sung Cheol is currently meeting audiences through his roles in the musicals 'Jekyll and Hyde' and 'Monte Cristo'.
