The Tyrant's Chef, said on the 12th, "After discussions, the production team and actor Park Sung-hoon decided that it would be difficult to do this work 'The Tyrant's Chef' together."
The Tyrant's Chef' is a fantasy romance drama that takes place when a time-slip French chef meets the king, the worst tyrant and the best gourmet, and Park Sung-hoon was scheduled to star as the male lead.
However, Park Sung-hoon posted a photo of a cover of Japanese pornography on his SNS account on the 30th of last month, which appeared to be an unauthorized parody of the Netflix series "Squid Game," prompting a flurry of Internet users to demand that his next film be dropped.
Regarding the situation at the time, Park Sung-hoon's agency explained, "Park Sung-hoon saw the picture in question while checking a number of DMs, and accidentally uploaded it to his account because he was inexperienced in using SNS in the process of delivering it to the company officials," but the controversy did not subside.
