Amid the internal and external crises, there are many difficult things going on right now. Rather than saying stay strong through words, I wanted to be a person that showed it through actions instead. No matter how wild our lives may get, the way will always be visible and no matter how difficult it may be, everything will get resolved as time goes on. Last year was filled with sufferings, but may we all meet once again with smiles on our faces :)

Back in January 2022, Ji A—the show’s breakout star—was caught wearing numerous fake designer items throughout her time on the Netflix show, on her YouTube channel, as well as her Instagram account. While owning knock-off goods isn’t uncommon within the nation, it was the fact that the Single’s Inferno star tried to pass off her counterfeit goods as authentic which infuriated the nation.
Due to the mass backlash and harsh criticisms she began to receive, Ji A quickly apologized for her mistakes and removed all of her content from her social media accounts. Ever since her controversy went public, the influencer has stayed out of the spotlight to reflect on her actions.
Given the heated situation, many of the other Single’s Inferno contestants have not addressed Ji A’s controversy due to the potential backlash they could also receive. However, it seems that Kim Jun Sik did not care and rather, cared more for his fellow contestant and friend’s current well-being.
