Kim Je-deok, a gold medalist in men's team archery event at '2024 Paris Olympics' is under controversy in Korea.
On the 5th, a user captured a scene where Kim Je-deok 'liked' Chodan, a famous influencer and member of girl group QWER's picture. The user wrote, "If a current national team athlete confidently follows and likes a nude cam girl BJ (internet broadcast jockey who mainly broadcasts adult content), then of course he watches the broadcasts too. He should practice archery instead of watching cam girls. He might've made it to solo finals then. When I saw that he 'liked' a picture of Chodan wearing only panties I thought, 'ah, he's a Hannam' too."
As of the 8th, the post has garnered 6.5 million views and over 2,500 likes on Twitter (X), and is gaining sympathy from some female users.
The criticism is continuing in several female-dominated communities. Comments such as, "Have you no shame?" "He's a national team member but not even following with a secret account," "it's not a crime but this re-affirms the saying that we shouldn't cheer for male athletes.." "I hate that I have to breathe the same air and live in same society with someone like that.." were posted on 'Women's Era' Daum Cafe.
The alleged 'panty' photo was revealed to be a photo that recently went viral among teens. The outfit Chodan is wearing for the brand photo shoot is something models commonly wear when taking such pictures. The photo was taken as part of a 101-day diet project conducted by health YouTuber Kim Gye-ran, the creator of QWER, targeting six people including Chodan, rapper Lee Young-ji, and broadcaster Hong Seok-cheon.
Chodan is a BJ who gained popularity as a Twitch streamer and currently has 720,000 subscribers on YouTube. She debuted as a member of four-member girl group QWER in October last year and has been very active.
- [+1,167, -614] Girl group idols don't do these kinds of things. These are just BJ's who specialize in nude cam scenes.
- [+1,137, -579] You can look up just how much she exposed while broadcasting.. it's really true that she's a nude cam BJ it's actually quite shocking.. After seeing the older unni who worked out with her get all kinds of flak for getting short hair, he should be more careful.. I heard that girl group is popular with elementary school kids so if she's really a nude cam BJ that's really harmful..
- [+928, -380] Hey, if had liked BJs who criticize classmates for being mentally ill and having short hair then of course he should be criticized. This is a world where players get criticism just for being from Gwangju and having short hair.. but how is this a controversy?
- [+728, -343] You have the name of a national team member, isn't it a bit strange to click 'like' on a panty picture of a nude cam BJ.. not even on a different account but your main account..
- [+683, -244] So what do you want him to do? Did he like a picture of a woman wearing panties.. yes that's a fact..
- [+382, -23] I googled 'Chodan BJ' and went to the image tab. Is she really popular with elementary school kids??ㅋㅋㅋ it's crazy.. why do you have to do that, why not just be a normal YouTube BJ가
- [+336, -55] Girl groups don't take barf shots like that ^^,,,,,
- [+260, -38] I think I can understand the cause of Korea's low birth rate just by looking at the comments. Guys, please show off outside too.
- [+232, -19] If Shin Yu-bin had clicked the 'like' button on a shirtless male cam.. you would've been giddy
- [+219, -13] I really don't want to criticize Kim Je-deok or the nude cam thing but this article is just interesting.. it's not just a photo but a body profile, how can panties become pants? Does debuting in a girl group mean you're no longer a nude cam BJ?
- [+151, -15] What kind of girl group does high-level broadcasts like that in the living roomㅋㅋㅋ
- [+104, -10] Our national prestige is really hitting rock bottom ㅋㅋㅋㅋ if a female archer clicked 'like' on a naked cam BJ there would be chaos
- [+75, -8] Do you see idols open their shirts and wear only bras while doing broadcasts on the internet?
