Jo Jung Suk had a major broadcasting slip-up that led to his secret identity being exposed during a live stream!

On February 13, a video was uploaded on the Cheonggyesan Daengi Records YouTube channel, featuring a live broadcast by “Daengi Appa”, the dad character of Daengi.

The video started with Daengi Appa greeting viewers, explaining that he’d planned to stream after hitting 400,000 subscribers, but due to some technical issues, the subscriber count dropped to 375,000. He decided to go ahead with a test broadcast instead.

While speaking to the viewers, Daengi Appa tried to keep his face hidden with an emoji sticker. However, during the broadcast, he absentmindedly scratched his face, causing the emoji filter to disappear for a brief moment—revealing Jo Jung Suk’s face!

Although he quickly switched back to the emoji, his flustered expression gave it away. He laughed and said, "My face is turning red. Can you not see it?"

Viewers immediately began flooding the chat with comments like “Professor Lee Ik Jun,” “Hedwig,” and “He looks like that actor!”

Daengi Appa tried to play it cool, denying the “broadcast accident,” but his visible blush made everyone laugh.

He quickly ended the stream, saying, “If I keep going, I won’t be able to move much or turn my head, so I think this is enough.”

Fans had a blast in the comments, joking about how quickly the broadcast ended after his face was revealed.

Some even pointed out how Jo Jung Suk couldn’t stop laughing during the awkward moment. "He really got caught," one commenter wrote, while another added, "Is he giving up on hiding now?"

Jo Jung Suk’s alter ego, "Daengi Appa," has been a mysterious figure on Cheonggyesan Daengi Records, known for posting cover songs with his face hidden.

Despite fans quickly realizing it was him, Jo Jung Suk has always denied it. In a past appearance on the Lee Ji Geum channel, he said, "It’s really similar. AI technology has advanced so much. It’s amazing," but continued to keep his identity under wraps.

At a press conference for the Netflix variety show A-list to Playlist, Jo Jung Suk teased, "I think it’s time to reveal it now. Please pretend you don’t know. I want to keep fighting against the world’s preconceived notions and biases."

Looks like Jo Jung Suk's secret is finally out!

Choi Si Hoon, known from Single’s Inferno and newlywed husband of singer Ailee, is facing backlash after being linked to a controversy from Wavve’s queer reality show ToGetHer.

Fans discovered that Choi is allegedly the CEO of the influencer agency representing Ri Won, a cast member now at the center of a growing scandal.

The situation started when castmate Han Gyeol spoke up, claiming Ri Won once suggested an overseas trip that felt more like a shady meeting than a casual hangout.

“I thought it was a fun vacation invite at first,” Han Gyeol said, “but when they started talking about meals and date-like things, I realized something was wrong. It felt like an inappropriate setup.”
Han Gyeol added, “Using someone’s sexuality as a shield for suspicious actions is not okay in this industry.”

Ri Won responded by saying it was all a misunderstanding and that the trip was mentioned casually during a conversation about food. “We joked about going to that country after talking about food,” Ri Won said.

However, things got more intense when Ri Won admitted to having a past as a 'beotbang' (adult streaming) BJ. “I know I’m not trustworthy right now, and I appeared on TV while hiding my past. That’s why I shared some proof—I was desperate,” Ri Won explained.

Ri Won also shared a blurred message from another cast member that accused them of fake dating and lying about knowing someone from Billboard. “You said you’d introduce me to a Billboard contact. Then give me their name and title,” the message read. “You just keep switching your targets.”

Ri Won replied, “He’s the team leader at Billboard Korea and also my influencer agency CEO.”
This comment led online users to dig deeper—and some claimed the CEO Ri Won mentioned is none other than Choi Si Hoon, Ailee’s husband.

Currently on his honeymoon with Ailee, Choi is now getting unwanted attention. Some netizens brought up his alleged past as an adult BJ and now, his possible involvement in this controversy.

On Ailee’s Instagram post from April 30, one fan wrote, “Unnie, sorry to bother you during your honeymoon, but please search Choi Si Hoon’s name. A female BJ said she’s signed to his company, and he supposedly arranged a meeting for her with a just-turned 19-year-old girl.”

As the issue grew, Ri Won spoke out again on May 1 to calm things down. “The person I mentioned in the messages was just someone who gave me advice,” Ri Won clarified. “He’s not my agency CEO, like some people assumed. I thought he could help with music, but he never made any business offer.”

Ri Won ended by saying, “I’m sorry for causing any confusion and discomfort to others with my personal remarks.”

So far, Choi Si Hoon and Ailee have not made public statements about the situation.
