チェ・シウォン(SUPER JUNIOR)、自身の騒動に立場明かす
Choi Si Won (SUPER JUNIOR) expresses his position on the memorial for the late Charlie Kirk, who was shot and killed.
Choi Si Won, a member of the Korean group "SUPER JUNIOR" and also an actor, paid tribute to Charlie Kirk, a right-wing activist who was assassinated while giving a lecture at a university.
On the 12th of this month, Siwon posted on the fan platform "Bubble" saying, "There has been a lot of talk about mourning Charlie Kirk, so I would like to explain."
"He was a Christian, a breadwinner and a husband," she said. "Whatever the circumstances, he was shot and killed while giving a speech in front of many university students.
"What he did is a heartbreaking tragedy that goes beyond political stances," he said, adding, "That's why I paid tribute to him." He added, "After I posted it, I received a lot of attention from the media.
I'm grateful for the comments, but contrary to my intention, it seems to have been analyzed by people other than the media, and I decided that my humble feelings had been conveyed well enough, so I deleted the post."
I'm explaining this because I've received a lot of interest." Previously, Siwon released "REST IN PEACE CHARLIE" on the 11th of this month.
He posted a photo of Kirk on social media with the message "Rest in Peace, Charlie Kirk." He also posted a photo of Kirk with his wife and two children.
He also shared a photo with the Bible verse "Well done, good and faithful servant" written on it.
Not only Siwon, but actress Jin Soyeon and actor Choi Junyeong also posted condolences for Charlie Kirk on social media.
Some fans of "SUPER JUNIOR" even demanded that Siwon leave the group.
As soon as the controversy arose, Siwon deleted the eulogy. Kirk, a close aide to US President Trump, was shot and killed while giving a lecture at Utah Valley University on the 10th of this month (local time).
Kirk made a name for himself as a young conservative when he was a senior in high school, and founded Turning Point USA, which he grew into one of the most influential young conservative organizations.
