Actor Jung Hae In has become the focus of online discussion after a video from an overseas fashion show led to allegations of possible racial discrimination.
Jung Hae In attended a men’s fashion show in Milan, Italy, last month. In the video shared online, he is seen seated between two Western men.
While the two men sat with their legs spread and continued talking to each other, Jung Hae In remained in the middle in a visibly uncomfortable position, wearing a stiff expression.
The issue gained wider attention after GQ posted the video on its official social media account. Some netizens noticed that Jung Hae In’s account was not tagged in the post, which led to speculation that the omission may have been intentional and linked to his identity as an Asian celebrity.
Online reactions quickly followed, with comments such as, “He was treated like he was invisible at an official event,” and “Spreading legs like that is rude, especially toward a Korean star.”
At the same time, others called for caution, saying it is “hard to label this as racial discrimination” based only on a short clip.
As opinions remain divided, the video continues to spark discussion among fans and viewers, highlighting ongoing sensitivity around respect and representation at global fashion events.
