As’Joseongu Masa’ is engulfed in controversy, it is also affecting the actors who appeared in Park Gye-ok’s previous work’The Queen Ironman’ and the actors who appeared in it.
On the 25th, WeMust-M announced the position of appointing actor Shin Hye-seon as their model in relation to the controversy over the history distortion of’Queen Iron Man’.
WeMustM side bowed, “Although it is a fantasy historical novel, we express our deep regret for causing concern to all netizens due to the historical distortion of the’Queen Iron Man’, which is based on a Chinese web novel.”
He then denied the suspicion of Chinese production, saying, “All products are 100% domestically produced,” saying, “It is a company that has personally practiced the return of profits to society and a good company good donation.”
WeMustM said, “We have withheld 11 million masks that were being produced as a mask model for Shin Hye-sun. We are doing our best to collect opinions such as deciding whether to produce them after reviewing the opinions.”
The management said, “As a representative of the company, we are regretting the fact that the contents of’Queen Iron Man’ in selecting actors Shin Hye-seon did not seriously consider the part that distorts the legitimacy of our people.” “When selecting a model, we considered Shin Hye-sun’s Good Neighbors activities, and it was selected in accordance with our good company sentiment.”
On the other hand,’Queen Iron Man’ has fallen into a controversy about the distortion of history due to the depreciation of cultural heritages such as the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty and the Jongmyo Jeryeak, and the depiction of the real person, Daebi Jo (Queen Shinjeong).
