Comedian Kim Ki-ri made his first social media appearance in about three months Wednesday, following backlash that spilled over from a controversy involving YouTuber Park Wi's social service worker incident.
Kim posted photos on his social media account Wednesday without a caption, showing him alongside his wife, actor Moon Ji-in.
In the photos, the couple posed closely together for a mirror selfie, both smiling broadly.
Earlier, Kim had restricted comments on his social media posts after online criticism directed at Park Wi extended to Kim, who had introduced Park to his wife, actor Song Ji-eun.
In August, Park posted CCTV footage on his YouTube channel showing him falling after tripping over a social service worker's foot while getting off a KTX train, drawing widespread criticism.
As negative reactions spread to Park's family and wife Song Ji-eun through his older videos, some users left malicious comments on Kim's social media as well, prompting him to restrict the comments feature.
Kim married actor Moon Ji-in in May 2024 and welcomed a son in August.
