Representative Jeon emphasized, “The entertainment industry and the political world are similar in that they both live off of people’s popularity, but the entertainment industry is cooler than the political world, where people are go on stage when they’re popular and come down when they’re not.” At the same time, he said, “In the broadcasting industry, there are cases where a notice of withdrawal is given the day before, but if it is notified a week before, it is normal,” and he said that a sudden notice of withdrawal back is common. in the broadcasting industry.
He also said, “The leftists criticize Nam Hee-seok as a ‘hard-core right-winger’ and ‘affiliated with the People Power Party.'” He added, “I know from broadcasting with Nam Hee-seok, and he is an obnoxious ‘middle of the road’ person who doesn’t even make ‘political comments.’ He added, “Don’t associate replacing the MC of the National Song Contest with politics.”
