Ko Young-wook has been continuing his daily barrage of criticism and attacks against fellow celebrities such as Pung Ja and Tak Jae-hoon.
Ko Young-wook, who was expelled from the entertainment industry for sexual offenses against minors, has recently sparked controversy by publicly attacking fellow celebrities such as Pung Sa and Tak Jae-hoon on his social media. Ko Young-wook, who previously criticized Yoo Jae-suk and Shin Dong-yup, has continued to mock TV personalities and make revealing remarks about his former colleagues.
Ko Young-wook has reacted sharply by criticizing the SBS show *My Ugly Duckling*, on which Pung Ja-ha appeared, and by bringing up Tak Jae-hoon’s past behavior. He raised his voice in criticism of Tak Jae-hoon, citing an anecdote from Tak’s days as a member of the group Lulla.
In 2013, Ko Young-wook was sentenced to prison on charges of sexual assault and indecent assault on a minor, becoming the first celebrity to be fitted with an electronic ankle monitor. After his release in 2015, he attempted a comeback but was barred from activities due to fierce public backlash and platform policies.
Experts analyze that Ko Young-wook’s behavior stems from feelings of inferiority regarding his marginalized position in the entertainment industry and a desire for public validation. His desperate attempts to assert his presence—even at the cost of sparking controversy—are inviting public criticism.
