Shocked by Criticism of Lee Jae-myung in 'Murderer's Dilemma'? Daughter's Name Gave Me Chills
# Netflix Drama Controversy Surrounding Lee Jae-myung
Recently, a new Netflix drama has sparked controversy for allegedly portraying Lee Jae-myung, the leader of the ruling Democratic Party, as one of its main characters.
The drama, titled "Killer and Helpless," was released on October 9th and has been the subject of criticism on online communities such as Epp Korea and Bobae Dream. Many viewers have pointed out that one of the characters in the drama bears a striking resemblance to Lee Jae-myung.
The drama is based on a popular webtoon and while some scenes are faithful to the original, others have been altered. The character in question is the CEO of a construction company, Hyeong Seong-guk, who is under investigation for corruption. His appearance alone is enough to remind viewers of Lee Jae-myung.
Not only does the character's name, Hyeong Su-ji, raise suspicion for being intentionally similar to Lee Jae-myung's sister-in-law, but there are also other details that seem to allude to the politician. In one scene, Hyeong is seen casually eating sushi in his office, which is the same food that Lee Jae-myung's wife, Kim Hye-kyung, had ordered with a corporate card in the past.
Another significant moment is when Hyeong is seen stabbing a man in the neck. The perpetrator yells out, "This is the carotid artery!" while confronting the police. This mirrors an incident where Lee Jae-myung was stabbed in the neck by a man on October 2nd. The politician's injury was also to his carotid artery.
It's clear that the drama has taken inspiration from real-life events involving Lee Jae-myung. While some may argue that it's just a coincidence, the similarities between the character and the politician are too uncanny to be ignored.
As a fan of Lee Jae-myung, I find it concerning that a popular platform like Netflix would allow such a portrayal of a public figure. It's important to remember that dramas and other forms of media can influence people's perceptions and opinions. I hope that Netflix takes responsibility and addresses this issue appropriately.
