At 11 am today, he was making a round with friends at a Junnam golf course.

1. [+386, -9] If anyone is going to give him problems over this, nobody at YTN should be eating, watching TV, or doing any sort of hobby activity. Wear mourning clothes and cry all day long.

2. [+334, -8] That reporter should not even be breathing. What a joke.

3. [+242, -6] What a stupid reason to start a witch hunt over. Then what was that YTN reporter doign following Lee Kyung Kyu to the golf course?

4. [+10, -3] I went to yoga today. Sorry.

5. [+9, -0] I finished my entire lunch today and even had coffee for dessert... I'm sorry...

1. [+1,806, -47] Is Lee Kyung Kyu some civil servant????????

2. [+1,715, -38] Golfing is a hobby, why is that an issue? Anyone who is hating on him, are you all not watching dramas, movies, reading, going on dates, playing games or anything but praying????? If not, don't hate on Lee Kyung Kyu. You do not force people to mourn.

3. [+1,532, -36] So do reporters think everyone should be doing nothing but watching the news? What an overreaction.

4. [+77, -2] I don't know why people are forcing the nation to mourn. Everyone is sad, everyone is mourning, but lives must go on. Must people continue to be depressed? What are we allowed to do if nothing at all?

5. [+67, -2] If not golfing, is working out not allowed? Eating at restaurants? Shopping at the mall?
