Running Man side is controversial because it broadcasts a parking scene in a parking area for the disabled.

In the SBS Running Man broadcast on July 31st, the members were scattered around Sangam-dong and received a mission to hide their large name tags in the desired place.

On this day, it is a mountain culture experience center located near Nanji Hangang Park, and the members who started the opening got out of the building after receiving the mission and prepared to move.

However, on the scene, the staff's vehicles were parked in the disabled parking area outside the building, causing controversy.

The building is known to be closed on the day of filming, and even with the assumption that Running Man had a full rental, parking in the 'disabled parking area' could be a legal problem.

A fine of 100,000 won may be imposed when parking in a parking space reserved for the disabled without a parking sign available for the disabled parking area.

Netizens who saw this commented, "It's a closed high school, and the parking area for the disabled should always be empty", "Isn't it okay if the entrance is blocked because it's a full rental?", "It's too flexible", "It must have been illegal parking if the parking lot was open even if you rented it." ", "I had to be careful since I was exposed to the media", etc.

Hyun Bin is finally addressing the long-standing "ddongcha" (poop car) theory surrounding his character from My Name is Kim Sam-soon—and he's not holding back!

In an interview on the 19th with Star News, the beloved actor confessed, "I was wrong," responding to the reevaluation of his iconic role as Hyun Jin-heon from the 2005 hit drama. The "ddongcha" theory has been a subject of online debate for years, with many viewers critiquing Hyun Jin-heon’s character as overly arrogant and entitled.

Hyun Bin, who first rose to fame in My Name is Kim Sam-soon, took the time to reflect on the character that made him a household name. He shared, “I was just following the script; there were no personal opinions added to the character of Hyun Jin-heon. At that time, I knew Hyun Jin-heon was portrayed as a ‘bad boy,’ and the way it was expressed was different from today’s standards.”

With My Name is Kim Sam-soon now being re-released as part of Wavve's "New Classic" project, fans are revisiting the 2005 drama, and the character of Hyun Jin-heon is under fresh scrutiny. Director Kim Yun-cheol even admitted that the "prince on a white horse" and "bad boy" tropes that once worked in 2005 don’t quite match today's sensibilities, leading to edits in the 2024 version.

Hyun Bin humbly acknowledged his gratitude for his successful career and hit works, saying, "It’s wonderful and I am grateful to have so many hit works. I’ve been fortunate to work with amazing writers, directors, and actors. Thanks to them, I’ve received a lot of attention and love." He also shared a sense of humility, noting, “But I never know when that luck will come again."

Despite the dramatic shift in perspective on his character, Hyun Bin’s charm and dedication remain strong. Fans are eager to see him in his upcoming film Harbin (directed by Woo Min-ho), set to be released on the 24th.
