Actor Jo Jung Suk has spoken up about his unexpected face reveal during a live broadcast and issued an apology to fans.

On February 20, a new video was uploaded on his YouTube channel Cheonggyesan Dangi Records.

In the video, Jo Jung Suk appeared as his YouTuber alter ego, Dangi Dad, wearing a mascot head. He greeted fans by saying, "I’m greeting you in a new way today, so you might be a little surprised."

He then addressed the live broadcast accident, saying, "During my first-ever live stream, I made a mistake—though it wasn’t exactly intentional. As a mysterious YouTuber, I feel like I may have disappointed many people, and I sincerely apologize."

Explaining why he decided to wear a mascot head now, he said, "Wearing this makes me feel lighter. I’ve received drama offers and invitations to various media, but since I can’t always appear as an emoji, I had this made. This way, if I get invited to different programs, I can consider them more seriously."

Jo Jung Suk also confessed that he was struggling with his decision, saying, "To be honest, I don’t know if this is the right choice. I’ve been thinking about it a lot, and I still am."

He added, "Should I just reveal my face and continue as myself? There are two sides of me—Jo Jung Suk and Dangi Dad—and right now, they’re clashing."

He then bowed his head and apologized once more, saying, "I deeply regret making such a critical mistake. I feel like I’ve lost my 'mystery' and instead became 'completely revealed,' and I’m truly sorry for that."

For those unfamiliar, Cheonggyesan Dangi Records is Jo Jung Suk’s personal YouTube channel, where he has been active as Dangi Dad, hiding his face using an emoji filter.

However, during his first-ever live broadcast, Jo Jung Suk accidentally touched his face, causing the emoji filter to disappear—exposing his real face to viewers.

Shocked by the mistake, he appeared flustered, while fans had a good laugh in the chat, leaving comments like "Just reveal your identity already," "A classic rookie YouTuber mistake," and "Jo Jung Suk getting surprised by his own face."

Now, fans are curious—will Jo Jung Suk keep up the mystery, or will he finally reveal himself for good?

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.
