Lee Kyung-kyu Explodes in Anger Over 'Bongtan Sonyeondan' Event Hijacking Controversy

Veteran entertainer Lee Kyung-kyu was furious on the latest episode of SBS's 'Hangtang Project - My Turn' due to a controversy involving members of 'Bongtan Sonyeondan' allegedly hijacking a performance.

The episode featured trot veteran Jin Sung confronting the 'Bongtan Sonyeondan' members, including Tak Jae-hoon, Kim Won-hoon, and Lee Su-ji. Jin Sung expressed his strong displeasure, accusing the group of undermining the discipline and reputation of the trot music scene.

The situation escalated when comedian Jung Yi-rang, playing the character Patty Ja, appeared and was disrespected by the group. This led to Patty Ja ordering the members to do push-ups, only for Lee Kyung-kyu to intervene. However, Jin Sung's revelation that 'Bongtan Sonyeondan' had allegedly snatched a scheduled event intensified Lee Kyung-kyu's anger.

Despite initial denials from Lee Kyung-kyu and the accused members, a social media post showing them performing at the disputed event was presented as evidence, pushing Lee Kyung-kyu over the edge. He subsequently ordered Tak Jae-hoon, Kim Won-hoon, and Lee Su-ji to perform push-ups, bringing the chaotic situation to a head.

Lee Kyung-kyu is a highly respected and influential comedian and television personality in South Korea, known for his sharp wit and longevity in the entertainment industry. He has hosted numerous successful variety shows and is often referred to as a 'national MC'. In recent years, he has also expanded his reach through online content, demonstrating his adaptability.
