Actress Park Eun-bin asked to refrain from parodying ENA's 'Extraordinary Attorney Woo', but was criticized by some netizens.

On August 24th, News 1 released an interview with Park Eun-bin, the key protagonist of ENA's 'Extraordinary Attorney Woo'.

In the drama, Park Eun-bin is a genius lawyer with autism spectrum disorder, Woo Young-woo, who gradually grows up, leaving a deep impression on viewers.

As the drama gained great popularity, various videos of parodying Woo Young-woo were uploaded online, and Park Eun-bin was well aware of this.

Park Eun-bin said, "Personally, when I was playing Young-woo, I thought about it carefully and did not take it lightly, so I am cautious about wanting Woo Young-woo to exist only in the drama worldview." 

She continued, "I want to believe that you are not doing this to demean those who follow you. However, there may be reactions that are different from your own intentions. I'll tell you,".

Park Eun-bin seems to have made such remarks for fear that even if the parody people are not malicious, they are concerned that they may hurt someone.

However, some netizens reacted coldly to Park Eun-bin's remarks.

Netizens were disappointed, saying, "It's not a selective permission, and dementia can be imitated and autism can't be." 

Some people strongly criticized, saying, "It's okay to act yourself and not someone else's" and "I'm making money while acting for the disabled, but it's not for others."

On the other hand, some showed respect for Park Eun-bin's remarks, saying that people who are angry without understanding the overall context do not understand.

Meanwhile, Park Eun-bin talked about the second season of 'Woo Young-woo' with a slightly different texture from the other actors.

Park Eun-bin said, "Personally, I think it would be nice if you could leave the last ending scene of 'Pleasure' as if you were taking a picture and put it in a treasure box. I want to send it to you proudly. I think it will take a big decision.”

BLACKPINK’s Lisa recently revealed the challenges of being the CEO of her own company, LLoud, and shared some behind-the-scenes insights into the struggles of managing her own business.

In a February 28th video uploaded to the YouTube channel Zip Daesung, Lisa sat down as a guest and opened up about her journey as a one-person CEO.

During the shoot, as Lisa was getting her hair touched up, Daesung casually asked, "Have you been working with this crew for a long time?" to which Lisa replied, "Over a year. Ever since I started my company." She was referring to LLoud, the agency she founded just last year.

While discussing her experiences, Lisa added, "It’s fun. Of course, there are difficult parts," but quickly shifted the conversation, jokingly saying, "Aren’t you getting touched up?"

Daesung laughed and explained that his stylist wasn’t around at the moment, "The person who does that is off work. They’ll come back later after working nearby. It’s a bit more flexible." He joked further, "But we only pay for the time they’re here, and if they’re not here, we don’t pay for that time."

Lisa responded humorously, "I don’t think that’s bad. It’s good. Then, please step out for a moment. I don’t need any touch-ups." Her playful remark lightened the mood.

The conversation turned more serious when Daesung asked, "Do you ever feel like a CEO? Do you realize how much money goes out in unexpected places? Do you think, 'Oh, the company paid for this'?"

Lisa responded honestly, saying, "The music video costs are insane. It’s no joke." She went on to explain that managing the costs for music videos can be overwhelming, especially when you’re running a business alone.

Daesung agreed, commenting, "Yeah, both for us and for BLACKPINK, there’s a certain scale we’re used to from YG. The music itself is that kind of style, right?" He then asked, "When making a music video, do you just say, 'Can you please lower the cost?'"

Lisa didn’t hesitate to answer, saying, "Yes, I always ask them to reduce it." She elaborated, "I talk about the budget and ask for help. But it always ends up exceeding the budget. We just want to do our best. We want to meet the expectations."

It’s clear that Lisa’s commitment to her work goes beyond the financials, always striving to meet high expectations despite the challenges that come with running a company.
