by

‘In the latest season of ‘Squid Game’ on Netflix, some actors are advancing their careers, but others like Park Sung Hoon, portraying Player 120, have found themselves in unusual predicaments. Recently, he stirred up controversy by mistakenly sharing an adult video cover with explicit content and a ‘Squid Game’ theme on his social media.’

Initially, there was speculation that his account had been hacked, but it turned out to be an error instead. His management team, BH Entertainment, clarified that Park had received too many messages and mistakenly posted inappropriate content. He apologized and vowed to exercise more caution moving forward. However, the fallout from this incident is still ongoing.

The event led to significant criticism from fans, who advocated for his removal from the upcoming K-drama titled ‘The Tyrant’s Chef’, in which he was scheduled to act alongside YoonA.

It appears that Park Sung-hoon has officially left the set of ‘The Tyrant’s Chef’. According to OSEN, this decision for Park Sung-hoon’s departure from the series was reached amicably between the production team and his agency following extensive consultations.

An upcoming K-Drama follows the tale of a chef who inexplicably travels back in time and encounters a king, infamous for his tyranny yet renowned for his culinary skills. This drama is based on the web novel ‘Living as Yeonsan-gun’s Chef’, penned by Park Kook Jae.

In the show, masterfully crafted by Jang Tae Yoo, we find a delightful fusion of humor, love, and magic, complete with elements of time-travel, an oppressive main character, and a culinary adventure.
