What happened in the viral clip?

A clip from a 2024 video that YouTuber Park Wi uploaded to his channel 'Wirackle,' titled 'The First Chuseok at My In-Laws' House,' has sparked heated debate in online communities, according to News N. The video shows Song Jieun visiting the home of Park Wi, then her future in-laws, for Chuseok. Yoon So-hee, known as the adopted daughter of director Park Chan-hong, arrived earlier and greeted Song Jieun in sleepwear as if she were a biological daughter.

During the pre-meal prayer, Park Wi mentioned Yoon So-hee before Song Jieun, who was then his fiancée. Yoon So-hee referred to herself as Song Jieun's sister-in-law, and Song Jieun remarked that she had many sisters-in-law. Park Wi's mother responded that she liked her sisters-in-law very much.

Why did viewers criticize it?

Commenters pointed to several moments: director Park Chan-hong praised Yoon So-hee's intelligence in front of Song Jieun, Park Wi's younger brother greeted only Yoon So-hee during a video call, and some viewers noticed that Song Jieun was given different tableware. Many comments called the scene disrespectful toward her. As of October 8, other users urged restraint, warning against excessive speculation and personal attacks.

Who is Park Chan-hong's adopted family?

Director Park Chan-hong has directed KBS 2TV's 'Revival,' 'Demon King,' and 'Shark,' tvN's 'Memory,' JTBC's 'A Beautiful World,' and 'Miracle Brothers,' among other works. Actress Park Jin-hee has been his adopted daughter since they met on KBS 2TV's 'Pot Flower' in 2001. Park Jin-hee attended the wedding of her husband, a judge, where Park Chan-hong gave a speech.

In 2020, Park Jin-hee appeared on 'Wirackle,' where Park Wi introduced her as his real older sister. On an SBS Special episode that year, she said her father died early and that seeing Park Chan-hong made her wish he had been her father.

For international fans

The story is a viral family-dynamics debate rather than a confirmed dispute, and the clip itself is from 2024. Those interested in Park Chan-hong's work can look for his listed dramas on Korean streaming platforms, though availability varies by region.
