The video explaining the avoidance of military service by singer MC Mong has been deleted.
On the 2nd, the K-pop YouTube channel’Wonder K’said, “I humbly accept the point that it is the content that the fans’ emotions could not be measured on the third day,” and closed the video of MC Mong.
Earlier, on the 1st, MC Mong appeared on’My Personality’, one of the contents of’Wonder K’, and started promoting the 9th album, which is about to be released on the 2nd. Along with this, he opened his mouth to avoid military service surrounding him and drew attention.
In the video, MC Mong responded to the controversy that he was exempted from military service in 2010 due to intentional extraction, “It was due to a genetic disease. He explained that he had more than 10 teeth extracted because of his illness because he had a physical disability level. “The court also thoroughly reviewed the diagnosis documents and was convicted of being completely innocent.”
In particular, MC Mong said, “I have been exempted and not guilty, so there is no way to go to the army”, but said, “I will accept anything,” and showed a calm attitude toward the bitter voice toward himself.
However, even with the explanation of MC Mong, the reaction of the public is only cold. Still, the public’s gaze on MC Mong’s avoidance of military service is not good. The criticism spread to’Wonder K’, which posted a video like this on the third day. In the end, Wonder-K decided to apologize for the video and make it private.
Meanwhile, in June 2010, MC Mong stopped his entertainment business after being caught up in suspicion that he had deliberately extracted teeth in order to avoid military service. Afterwards, he was acquitted of the case, but he was convicted of obstructing the execution of civil service due to hierarchies for postponing military service through a public official examination, and he was sentenced to six months in prison and one year of social service for 120 hours.
