Tiger JK, Yoon Mirae, and Jordan were invited as guests at Robert Downey Jr.'s press event and people that were there are basically pissed that the family stole the spotlight from RDJ and had Jordan running around, basically leaving RDJ in the back as 'wallpaper'. Tiger JK went on Twitter and responded to the criticisms saying RDJ was the one that suggested most of the things netizens have a problem with (Jordan cutting RDJ's birthday cake, etc) and the event hosts that organized it.

1. [+413, -55] I was there yesterday and my full attention was just on RDJ so I didn't really care when JK's family came out. Time Square was completely filled and people were so ecstatic with RDJ, the event ended on a good note for me so what's going on...!!

2. [+291, -60] Whatever happened, I don't know why the family was invited. RDJ could've filled that stage up with his presence alone.

3. [+246, -63] Seriously, why did they think that was a good idea to run an event?! I was embarrassed just watching it.

4. [+48, -4] They seriously left a top of the top Hollywood star in the background? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Amazing ㅋㅋㅋ

5. [+41, -13] I seriously don't get why they brought that Jordan kid out... It was so ridiculous, he had no reason to be there. Aside from how RDJ felt, I as the audience felt extremely uncomfortable.

5. [+69, -20] I was there at the event. I'll just say one thing. I wanted to beat up Jordan..............................................

6. [+75, -27] The majority of anyone who was actually there will know that ever since Tiger JK's family came on the stage, the atmosphere turned extremely awkward and uncomfortable. Both the event hosts and the family are responsible for that. They had an unnecessary interview and Yoon Mirae showed absolutely no control over her son. If not for Jun Hyun Moo's hosting skills, it would've been worse. The audience isn't complaining for no reason. What they did was disrespectful to the fans who waited for hours. Tiger JK's tweets after the event just makes it worse.

7. [+49, -3] He came all the way to Korea only to have the spotlight stolen from him... He could've been smiling on the outside but I'm sure he wasn't feeling all too well on the inside

1. [+170, -16] At first, I started watching thinking Jordan's so cute ^^ and then as time went on, the atmosphere turned cold.......

2. [+167, -25] You guys need to watch the video, their son was causing an absolute fuss... RDJ's facial expression looked pissed too

3. [+160, -19] I don't even know why that family had to be there in the first place ㅋㅋㅋ

4. [+165, -34] What is he talking about? The atmosphere was ice cold. And he sounds like he's talking down about the situation on his Twitter. I used to like him but his attitude is such a turn off. These events need to be organized better. Don't invite a busy person like RDJ and turn him into wallpaper.

5. [+135, -17] Their kid was such a nuisance but Yoon Mirae was the bigger problem just standing there watching him. As a mom, she should've controlled him better. RDJ alone is enough to bring in a crowd, what Korean celebrity needed to actually be there? It's not like they're even related either... and why would you even bring your kid to an event like that?
