Yang Hong-won’s remark sparks controversy: "It feels like entering a Cheonho-dong motel"… From cold reactions to map reviews
2026.10.19 10:22
Rapper Yang Hong-won is causing controversy on social media with his comments about a "Cheonho-dong motel" posted alongside wedding photos with Won Hyun-ju. We have summarized the content of his remarks, netizens' reactions, and even the issue of "map app review terrorism."
Did you guys see your timelines this morning? 😳
The day after the wedding, which should have been filled with celebrations, the word 'motel' was unexpectedly spreading in real time.
The main character is none other than rapper Yang Hong-won from High School Rapper.
He finally tied the knot with his longtime girlfriend and daughter Lua's mother, model Won Hyun-joo, but apparently, reactions were completely divided because of a single line he posted on Instagram 🔥
Let me go over what was said to cause such a commotion, one by one!
1. Yang Hong-won ♥ Won Hyun-joo, Wedding Finally on October 18th 💍
The two held a wedding ceremony at a location in Seoul on October 18 and officially became husband and wife.
Society: Rapper Swings
Flower Girl: Daughter Lua, born in November 2024
Dating started: Since 2017 (Dating for nearly 9 years)
I heard the atmosphere on set was incredibly heartwarming when my daughter appeared as a flower girl 😭✨
Yang Hong-won showed his down-to-earth side even on the 17th, the day before the wedding, by posting a mirror selfie along with a message saying he felt very awkward before the groom's entrance.
Won Hyun-joo also conveyed an exciting atmosphere by releasing her wedding pictorial ahead of her marriage.
2. Thoughts on the problem: "It feels like entering the XXX Motel in Cheonho-dong" 😳
The thing that caused controversy is the post Yang Hong-won uploaded to Instagram on the day of the wedding.
He left this caption while revealing the wedding photos taken with Won Hyun-ju.
Hyunju, I love you. I still feel like I'm entering the XXX Motel in Cheonho-dong.
I think they meant that the excitement from the beginning of the relationship is still exactly the same. 💡
The problem is that he went out of his way to bring up a 'motel' in a public setting like a wedding, and with his daughter present at that.
3. What is the netizens' reaction? "Just say you love me" 💬
The reaction was definitely predominantly negative. Summarizing the opinions from online communities and article comments, it feels like this.
Criticism 😤 The level of expression is low; I don't know if they wrote this thinking it was witty.
What a shame 😥 They have a child, so did they really have to say something like that?
Advice type 🙏 It would have been better if you had just written 'I love you'
The congratulatory 🎉 message is a bit awkward, but congratulations anyway, live well.
In particular, on X (formerly Twitter), one post went viral after exceeding 800,000 views.
There were many criticisms that the comment tarnished the image of not only him but also his wife, and there were also opinions that the reactions defending it as 'pure love' actually made people feel more uncomfortable.
On the other hand, there were some opinions that the reaction was excessive, considering they were just expressing their own memories. It is definitely a situation where opinions are sharply divided. 🤔
4. Even a map app review… isn't this a bit much? 😓
The controversy didn't end on social media.
Some netizens went out of their way to locate the accommodation in Cheonho-dong mentioned in the remarks on map apps and started leaving a string of prank comments in the review section.
A review that copied the review text verbatim
"Hong-won, is this the place?" mocking reviews
A wedding congratulatory review completely unrelated to the accommodation
With a flood of posts like this appearing between October 18th and 19th, the review section, where we are supposed to see actual user reviews, instantly turned into a mess.
Honestly, the comment wasn't great, but I also didn't like seeing them go all the way to a map app to use it.
Spamming an innocent store review section with comments that treat someone else's wedding as a plaything is neither wit nor congratulations.
I think we need to clearly distinguish between criticizing a statement and dragging unrelated things into a joke.
5. Yang Hong-won & Won Hyun-ju Profiles Revisit ✨
I’ve put together a brief summary for those of you who are curious about the two of them because of this incident.
Yang Hong-won : Born in 1999 (27 years old), Winner of Mnet's 'High School Rapper' Season 1 in 2017 (stage name Young B at the time), Runner-up of 'Show Me the Money 8' in 2019
Won Hyun-ju : 29 years old, active as a fashion model, influencer, and YouTuber
They are a long-standing couple, to the point where the name 'Hyunju' has appeared several times in Yang Hong-won's song lyrics 💕
When his daughter was born in 2024, his girlfriend personally shared the news, saying she had done it, and since May of this year, he has been sharing his daily parenting life and wedding preparations through his YouTube channel, 'Yang Hong-won's Parenting Diary'.
It was a day worthy of celebration as it was the fruition of a nine-year love, but I feel like the single line of your thoughts left something to be desired.
