Actress Lee Min-jung made a national apology due to a YouTube promise related to her husband, Lee Byung-hun.
On the 7th, a video titled "[Emergency Broadcast] Lee Min-jung's National Apology Live" was released on the YouTube channel 'Lee Min-jung MJ'.
In the video, Lee Min-jung honestly confessed the stress she has experienced due to the promises related to her husband, Lee Byung-hun.
When the channel was launched, Lee Min-jung made a promise that "if the subscribers reach 500,000, Lee Byung-hun and director Park Chan-wook will appear together." However, the channel's subscriber count is still around 350,000, and as the promotional period for the movie 'Can't Help It' approaches in September, Lee Byung-hun continues to appear in videos with his face blurred.
Lee Min-jung mentioned a fan's comment, saying, "Lee Byung-hun was worried during a fan meeting, saying, 'If we don't reach 500,000, I have to appear with the director, but I have to be blurred.'" She continued, "I'm really stressed. I even have nightmares about blur while sleeping."
She stated, "Oppa (Lee Byung-hun) said that it doesn't make sense to suddenly reveal his face for movie promotion after blurring it in all the videos so far, and he told me to keep the promise until the end."
Shin Dong-yeop also encouraged Lee Min-jung, saying, "That's the charm of YouTube. You have to keep your word."
In the end, Lee Min-jung bowed her head and said, "I was wrong. Please spread the word and subscribe." She emphasized again, "We must reach 500,000 by mid-September. I'm really desperate."
Meanwhile, the movie 'Can't Help It', featuring Lee Byung-hun, is directed by Park Chan-wook and has been officially invited to compete at the Venice International Film Festival in September.
