: Star News via Nate1. [+1,262, -31] He's right, and it's not even the first time Steven has done something like this2. [+1,139, -29] I agree. He only apologized because it became a problem, he doesn't really know what the problem is and he's calling it a simple mistake...3. [+994, -43] I hope his movie flops4. [+50, -6] I bet Koreans will still support him saying he's handsome and good at acting...5. [+43, -1] That's why he'll never be Korean... only Korean-American.6. [+42, -4] Just never call yourself Korean again.. and don't dare come back to our small country!!!7. [+41, -3] I was a fan but that's over after today8. [+39, -4] Basically, he was acting like he was apologizing while going "f*ck this" behind it all...9. [+32, -2] So maybe it was a mistake but how is he going to explain his English and Korean apologies being written differently? ㅋㅋㅋ10. [+25, -1] Screw this American ba$tard, go back to your country1. [+1,786, -24] Steven Yeun-ah, Koreans may not be able to speak English but we're damn good at reading it ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ2. [+903, -23] I guess someone else wrote his Korean apology for him ㅠㅠ Why would he properly apologize in Korean and then write in English like it's not a big deal... does he not think that Koreans can read English? Even if he's American, this is still a big mistake, no??3. [+700, -19] I used to be a fan and knowing that he has wanted to advance into the Korean industry, it's disappointing that he doesn't even realize that the rising sun flag is as heinous as the Nazi flag4. [+670, 18] It's fine if you admit your fault but anything more than that and it starts to sound like a long-winded excuse5. [+280, -58] Is this guy really Korean? He's Korean American, let's please stop acting like he's actually Korean.6. [+99, -3] It's understandable that he might not've known since he's American but if fans told him that it was wrong, why would he write different apologies in Korean and English and then delete it once fans pointed out the differences? He should've just said sorry and that he'll study up on it and his fans would've shielded him... But this isn't even his first offense...7. [+96, -2] His cowardly apology just ruined his image. Go make your money in America. Why stay in Korea when you think so lowly of us?8. [+50, -1] If he really didn't think this was something that he shouldn't have had to apologize over, he should've just expressed that in both Korean and English1. [+1,023, -49] If he's going to apologize at all, he should've left it at that... instead of writing different apologies in Korean and English2. [+980, -44] So this is how it ends for him~ the rising sun flag is one issue you should never talk... Just go back to America and do as you have been, don't think of making any money in Korea anymore..3. [+904, -41] He should've never touched an issue that Koreans take very sensitively..4. [+61, -2] An apology would've been acceptable if he really didn't know but the way he handled this was a mess. He barely tried to understand why his Korean fans were so enraged.5. [+45, -2] Steven Yeun-ah, there are tons of Koreans who can read English. I was able to read your English apology just fine. Give us a proper apology. I know what your Korean skills are and I know that you aren't capable of using words like "참담하다".6. [+38, -1] He made two mistakes that Koreans hate the most. Touched on a sensitive issue and then wrote a completely two-faced apology in two different languages.7. [+34, -4] Idiot ㅋ farewell8. [+18, -1] He's American after all. Never served in our army, doesn't have a clue what the rising sun flag is.1. [+1,230, -19] This isn't about Koreans overreacting. Imagine if a Hollywood star pressed like on a Nazi picture and called it a mistake. Would people not go up in arms over it still? I have a feeling that Steven Yeun has no idea about Korean history, let alone that flag.2. [+666, -7] Yes, mistakes are possible. Through carelessness. But the meaning behind his Korean and English apologies were different, and that's wrong. It's an attempt at fooling the public. It's fine that a second generation doesn't know our history. It's not anything to be proud of but it's understandable. However, it's wrong to act as if he didn't do anything wrong, that he feels hurt that he's being criticized for this. The worst thing you can do is simply act like you're reflecting when you're not. How can we trust him when he's being disingenuous? It's a disappointment as an actor.3. [+530, -14] I thought he was Korean but I guess he's just an American with no interest in Korea at all... he's only here to make money ㅋ4. [+299, -110] Aigoo, his movie's going to flop5. [+42, -0] What's frustrating about issues like this is that Americans always blame us for being too sensitive without ever considering what heinous acts were committed under that flag... Why are always the ones being blamed for being too sensitive?6. [+25, -0] So if foreigners are saying that it's okay if they don't know what the rising sun flag is, is it okay for Koreans to say we don't know what the Nazis are????7. [+24, -1] Even if you didn't know, if you hurt someone by your actions, you need to apologize. You can't just say "I didn't know that what I did was wrong", it doesn't work that way.
