Park Myung-soo Hints at Addressing '4.5-Day Work Week' Controversy After Previous Remarks

Broadcaster Park Myung-soo appeared to acknowledge recent controversy surrounding his comments on the '4.5-day work week' system. On the April 19th broadcast of KBS Radio's 'Park Myung-soo's Radio Show,' guest Jeon Min-gi joined the program.

During the show, Park discussed his fitness routine, stating, "I definitely exercise four days a week. I run for more than 30 minutes." He also offered advice to a listener who felt they hadn't accomplished half of their New Year's goals, suggesting, "Don't try to do half of what you planned, just do one thing. Do one thing properly. Then you can feel like you've achieved something this year, like losing weight."

Towards the end of the segment, Park humorously remarked, "Please look forward to my opinionated statements today," and added, "I will speak to you all with principle and conviction." However, when he invited a discussion about his upcoming 'opinionated statement,' Jeon Min-gi lightheartedly replied, "There's nothing like that today. I've brought good keywords," diffusing the situation with a smile.
