The sports commentators repeatedly said that Jiyeon had to make new side dishes for her husband during a baseball match, drawing attention.
Recently, Korean netizens expressed their dissatisfaction with two commentators during Hwang Jae Gyun’s baseball match. Recently, Jiyeon attended her husband’s baseball match to cheer for him. However, whenever the camera zoomed in on her, the commentators repeatedly said she should prepare a new “banchan” (side dish) for her husband. They went on to say that Hwang Jae Gyun would have different side dishes as a reward if he performed well during this match.
When the baseball player was eliminated from the first round, the commentators persisted that he might have one last chance to eat a new banchan.
The comments almost always contained the keywords, “dinner”, “food”, and “banchan”. Netizens were angry and thought the sports commentators were too impolite when they only focused on the private and personal life of a married couple.
Several netizens’ comments:
- It’s rude to comment about a person’s husband/wife like that;
- Which era are you living in?
- Too rude… If Jiyeon knew, she would never turn up at any other match.
