Yoo Yeon Seok’s Past Misogynistic Comment Gets Spotlighted

The original interview was from 2016.

Actor Yoo Yeon Seok‘s comment from 2016 has recently gone viral. The star had been promoting the movie The Mood of The Day with Moon Chae Won, where he made a questionable comment about women’s clothing.

He claimed that if a woman does not wear revealing clothing, he believes that they are not interested in him. Conversely, if a woman wears revealing clothing when with him, he would take it as a positive sign.

If a woman wears something translucent, where you can sort of see something whenever they walk? If they wear something like that when they are out with me, I would think they are interested in me. If they are all covered up, it feels like they are putting up a wall and I think they are not interested in me.

He followed up by telling Moon Chae Won that it was her usual conservative dressing that resulted in her being unable to date. The clip has now gone viral after being posted on December 16, 2024. Fans have been reacting to this since November 2024, when his recent drama with Chae Soo Bin, When The Phone Rings, went viral.

Many find him a red flag.
