On June 7, Park Bo-young communicated with fans through a fan platform, writing, “I like you all a lot too. Have a great day today.” She later added, “I found out through Bubble. Such strange people. Don’t worry. It doesn’t affect me much.”
Her remarks came after her social media accounts were flooded with comments urging her to take a public stance on protests related to vote-counting issues in Seoul. Some critics questioned why she had previously shared supportive messages during demonstrations calling for the impeachment of former President Yoon Suk Yeol but had not commented on the current controversy.
The issue stems from reports that some polling stations in Seoul experienced ballot shortages during South Korea’s June 3 local elections, resulting in long wait times for voters. The situation later led to protests and calls for a re-election from some citizens, including demonstrations near a vote-counting center in Jamsil.
Online comments directed at Park Bo-young included demands for her to express an opinion on the matter, with some accusing her of being selectively vocal about social issues. Similar comments were reportedly left on the social media accounts of several other celebrities.
Rather than engaging directly with the political debate, Park Bo-young chose to reassure her fans that she was not troubled by the criticism. Her brief response quickly drew attention online, with many supporters praising her calm reaction to the growing pressure.
The actress is currently preparing for the release of upcoming projects while continuing to maintain communication with fans through online platforms. Despite the controversy surrounding the comments on her social media accounts, Park made it clear that she remains unfazed by the situation
