Actor Kim Bin-woo has found herself at the center of another controversy — this time over reckless behavior while driving — just a month after a noise complaint incident.

On Saturday, Kim posted a short video on her social media with the caption, "33 years of saying we're not a good match, yet we get along best."

The clip showed Kim and friends enjoying a trip to Jeju Island.

In the footage, Kim sat in the driver's seat with one hand on the steering wheel, swaying to music while the vehicle was in motion. At one point, she propped one leg up on the seat, took her eyes off the road and danced toward the camera.

Some online users criticized the video, commenting that "safety comes first while driving," "this looks dangerous," and "even small actions can lead to serious accidents."

Kim later deleted the video and wrote on social media: "I feel like I'm producing relics from my body. Why do people waste so much unnecessary energy hating others?"

Earlier, Kim drew public criticism last month over a noise complaint. She had been livestreaming in the early morning hours, using a microphone and dancing to music. When a viewer asked whether she lived in an apartment, expressing concern about noise, Kim replied, "It's the first floor," and continued the broadcast.

The clip spread across online communities and drew a wave of criticism. Kim ultimately apologized, saying she was "deeply reflecting on my thoughtless actions" and would "be more careful going forward."

Kim married a non-celebrity two years her junior in 2015 and has a daughter and a son.
