Article: [Exclusive] Park Shi Hoo under controversy for luxury fan gifts, why?

1. [+1,065, -44] You fans were the ones that bought him all that stuff when you liked him. Should've bought your parents or relatives a present instead.

2. [+993, -110] This is nothing worth hating him over ㅋㅋ If this was anything worth hating over, there are a long list of idols that need to be included ㅋㅋ

3. [+835, -42] Fans gave him gifts on their own accord so there's nothing we can say on that. But if it's true that his mother wrote up a list and asked for specific gifts... that's... really wrong.

4. [+147, -17] It's not the cost that's the problem but the fact that he took all the money fans donated for fan gifts into his own account. And his mother or someone else related to him had a specific list of what they wanted like massage chairs, TV (even the model number)... This is my first time seeing a celebrity put up his own bank number and taking deposits. Reminds me of that one idol who got a lot of hate for saying he wanted some game CD, Diablo or something, from his fans.

5. [+135, -4] If we're going to release stuff like this, then they shouldn't forget how Park Shi Hoo's dongseng was a manager and forced all his fans to buy insurance... The fan who joined for the most amount would be given some important fancafe position. He then even threw a birthday party just for the fans who joined. So dirty.

1. [+1,454, -162] I'm not his fan but I don't understand how this is a problem.... The fans were the ones that gave him their money because they liked him. If they were going to cause a fuss about it later, then they shouldn't have participated in it to begin with.

2. [+1,084, -84] The important part here is that the person who released this information was Park Shi Hoo's fan. Why did she even give him her money if she was going to take it all back like this later?

3. [+1,016, -38] How about any articles on idols getting fan gifts as well... I don't understand how as a country we have so many brainless and stupid fangirls

4. [+970, -63] It's kind of stupid how they willingly gave him their money and now they're causing a fuss about it

5. [+872, -71] Aigoo, they were quiet about it all along and now they're coming out with this after Park Shi Hoo gets into a scandal.

6. [+787, -32] Idols are worse when it comes to fan gifts, this is nothing. There's even an idol who begged his fan for a gift.

7. [+696, -86] I don't understand the point. Every star receives fan gifts.

8. [+573, -38] It's not only Park Shi Hoo who receives luxury gifts from his fans ㅋㅋ The fans are the ones buying them all of this because they like them

9. [+461, -45] There are celebrities that have received way more than this so I don't understand why this is news worthy.

10. [+423, -55] What a joke... I remember seeing on TV fans giving celebrities lunch boxes worth hundreds of dollars just for their birthdays. I don't get why this is so controversial when it's become a norm.
