2026.09.09 11:47
Lee Su-ji returned to YouTube 42 days after the controversy regarding her political views, but there are reports that her view counts are not what they used to be. I have compiled everything from her recent comeback updates to her agency's legal response in one go.
You've all probably seen the controversy regarding Lee Su-ji's political leanings that keeps coming up in online communities these days, right? 😭 Comedian Lee Su-ji has resumed her activities with the YouTube channel 'Hot Issue G,' but since the reaction isn't as heated as before, everyone seems to be curious. Today, I’ll wrap up everything in one go, from the controversy to the view counts since the comeback and the agency’s response. ✨
1. Just what on earth was the controversy?
It all started on July 14th. Lee Su-ji uploaded a video titled "Civil Servant Kim Ji-young Protecting Her Iron Rice Bowl" to the YouTube channel "Hot Issue Ji." Content that comically depicts a situation where a character dressed as a first-year civil servant is harassed by troublesome petitioners. It was.
The problem is A scene in the video where a figure shouting "re-election" appears, and Lee Su-ji stops him. It was. Leaving this aside Criticism that "it portrayed citizens demanding a re-election as troublesome petitioners." As this poured out, it quickly escalated into a controversy over political affiliation.
2. Production team's explanation and Lee Suzy's handwritten apology
As the controversy grew, the production team immediately deleted the scene in question and "I had absolutely no intention of conveying a specific political stance or social issue," he clarified. They did. They stated that it was unrelated to the individual political leanings of the cast members and also admitted that there was a lack of judgment during the production process.
Lee Suzy herself released a handwritten apology on August 1st, 18 days after the controversy broke out. . "I sincerely apologize for causing disappointment and inconvenience to many people," and "I also deeply apologize for not handling the situation promptly and properly after the controversy," they said, bowing their heads.
3. Return after 42 days, but the view count...
The 'Hot Issue' channel was quiet for a while after the apology, but resumed content activities on August 25th with a video titled 'Great tips completely unrelated to health taught by Teunteun Unnie'. Return exactly 42 days after the controversial civil servant video It was.
Earlier this month, I also uploaded a new video titled 'Driving is Yeonsuji / Specializing in dormant licenses / Beginners welcome / 30 years of experience.' However, the problem is the view count 😢 You will definitely feel the difference if you compare using the table below.
Views of the video at this point in time
Previous record before the controversy - approximately 6.9 million views
Video released just before the controversy - Approximately 680,000 views
Comeback work Teunteun Unnie approximately 100,000 views
Returning work, 2nd title, Driving is Training, approximately 310,000 views
In the past, millions of views were the norm for every video, but since my comeback work barely surpassed 100,000 views, there were many reactions saying that the drop was quite significant.
4. Netizen reactions are mixed.
Reactions to the news of the return are really split 50/50.
Welcome reaction
I waited
"He's a genius at capturing characters. He's still in top form."
"It is not a crime, so there is no reason not to be able to work."
"I've already apologized and made the video private, so how long do I have to keep myself in self-imposed exile?"
Critical reaction
"He was watching the situation, and now he's coming back thinking this is the right time."
Look at him coming out now that all eyes are on Park Wi, thinking this is his chance.
"Shouldn't you be reflecting a little more?"
It seems like a quick return.
There is a prevailing atmosphere where opinions remain divided regarding the boundary between legitimate criticism and excessive slander.
5. Agency Finally Declares "Zero Tolerance Principle"
As the controversy did not easily subside even after the return, the agency, CP Entertainment, stepped forward directly. On September 8, they released an official statement. "We have confirmed that malicious slander, insults, personal attacks, the dissemination of false information, and defamatory posts and comments targeting Lee Suzy are continuously spreading on online communities and social media recently." He revealed that.
In particular, they went beyond a simple warning and announced actual legal action. They stated that they will pursue all legal responses, including civil and criminal measures, in cooperation with their legal representatives, against not only the writing of malicious posts or comments but also the acts of distributing and spreading them. "To protect the artist, we will respond strictly with a zero-tolerance policy, without leniency or settlement." He emphasized it so much 🔥
