He continued, “(The problematic ones) are images of women’s bodies exposed, most of them were photos from fashion magazines, and even girl group photos… I think I uploaded them thinking it was witty at the time…” .
Producer Yura continued, “Everyone knows very well that we are in an era where we can never make such a work or even think about posting such a thing. I am a person I met after such an era has passed, so that person will be judged only by that image. We are meeting knowing that this is not the case,” he said.
He added, “I’m writing this with a feeling that I’m right first because I think Shagos (Shigost Squat, NFT planned by Yura PD) will be ruined if there are people who are blindly shielding me without knowing this controversy.”
When the controversy over Yura PD’s prospective groom became known, Mak-Rye’s grandmother’s YouTube subscribers posted a message and started canceling their subscription.
