Actor Shim Eun-woo, who was involved in the school violence controversy in 2021
Confession of heart by revealing process after suspicion
Actor Shim Eun-woo revealed his feelings about the suspicion of school violence, albeit belatedly.
On the 24th, Shim Eun-woo posted a long article related to the suspicion of past school violence through his SNS.
First, Shim Eun-woo said, “It has been more than two years since I was labeled as a perpetrator of school violence and an actor. From the day the drama ‘The Glory’ aired in January of this year, I was additionally labeled as the second Yeonjin.” I opened my mouth.
Shim Eun-woo, who mentioned the time when he was pointed out as the perpetrator of school violence, said, “I apologized to that friend afterward. There was a process from reading this article to public apology 20 days later. There was no way to do it, so I had no choice but to deny it, and contrary to my intentions, it led to a truth battle.”
“At the time, I was filming the drama ‘Fly Up, Butterfly’ for 6 months. I was afraid of the situation where everyone in the drama team was being harmed by me and the tightening pressure. And I thought carefully and repeatedly. I met my friend and sister in person. Apologizing became an admission of abuse.”
Shim Eun-woo, who came to look back on her life every day after the controversy, said, “In school, of course, I wasn’t a model student. If I had been, I wouldn’t have had this issue. Not only that, but I confess to the truth, especially when I was in the first year of middle school, I was greedy, selfish, and jealous more than others. I was a lacking person,” he confessed.
Shim Eun-woo, who said, “I sincerely apologize if I am in a friend’s difficult memories,” said, “However, my entire school days were mistaken for being a perpetrator of school violence, and the second Yeon-jin of ‘The Glory’ and Yeon-jin were stigmatized as the same person. It’s so upsetting and exhausting,” he said. He said, “I have left social media for numerous malicious comments and posts, and I have deleted comments so that I can not see them. But I also have parents and family, so I will not pass by and report for punishment in the future.” .
At the end of the post, Shim Eun-woo added, “I’m so sorry. I want to get along well. I’m really sorry if there are people who have been hurt even a little bit in the past because of me, who is always lacking.”
