[+214, -75] Whatever the case, the truth remains that he committed an affair with a wife and children at home. He didn't leave this earth due to a sickness or in sacrifice for his country, so it's weird that he's being put on a pedestal in death... even more so than a fire fighter who gave his life saving others... 

[+159, -51] He was honestly an amazing actor who had a positive image pre-scandal, but nothing he did was worthy of praise or so unjust. An affair is an affair. Even without the affair in the picture, he was at parlors, and he definitely wasn't visiting those parlors to meditate in them, so why are people so intent on memorializing him as some kind figure who was unfairly taken from this world?

[+94, -23] So bizarre...

[+61, -33] Anyway, so what was he doing with the madame?

[+11, -3] I liked him as an actor and enjoyed watching him on variety shows... but the fact remains that he had a family at home and still chose to commit an affair ㅜㅜ why are we memorializing him as if he fought for our country and sacrificed his life...

[+10, -5] All he had to do was stay out of trouble

[+2, -0] Anyone would think he died fighting for our independence ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

[+2, -0] As an actor, yes, it's unfortunate what happened... I hope he finds happiness in the sky.

[+2, -1] What is destiny in the end... who knew he'd end up with a madame, persuaded into a life of drugs, just to have his wealth and honor sucked out of life

[+0, -0] Whatever the case, he may be hated on in our country, but foreigners still honor him, and we should be grateful for that, no? They're choosing to judge him as an actor and remember him like this, so what's with the hate? It's not like this was done at our own country's award ceremony. The hate here is pathetic. It's a film festival, let them honor him and leave the hate out...
