Comedian Kang Yumi showcased her alter ego as a 'mother of a 9-year-old son' and revealed a photo taken with an AI-generated 9-year-old son.
On the 30th of last month, a video titled '[Current Status Olympics] Kang Yumi Meets Yoo Se-yoon, Mental Breakdown After the Cancellation of Gag Concert, Current Status of Both' was released on Kang Yumi's YouTube channel.
The YouTube web entertainment show 'Current Status Olympics' meets stars who are not currently active, sharing stories from the past and hearing about their current situations.
Kang Yumi and Yoo Se-yoon parodied 'Current Status Olympics'. The two, who had collaborated in the KBS2 comedy program 'Gag Concert' in the segment 'Love Counselor', conducted the interview under the concept that they are no longer active.
Yoo Se-yoon playfully acted, saying, "We were popular back then. With the money I earned, I opened a café in Dongtan. Fans come to visit. It's also a café made because of the fans."
Kang Yumi portrayed a 'divorcee'. He said, "You might be a little surprised. I went once and came back. I am raising a 9-year-old son," and revealed a photo. The photo featured an AI-generated son, looking so natural that it drew attention.
Netizens reacted with comments like, "I can't tell if this is real or an alter ego," "I thought he was really confessing to being a divorcee," "This is a video shot with a concept, but I almost fell for it," and "This isn't real, right?"
