South Korean actor Choi Woo-shik, widely recognized for his role in 'Parasite,' recently found himself at the center of a heated online debate following his appearance at Paris Fashion Week.
In June 2026, during the AMI Paris show, a fan alleged that the actor deliberately ignored her during a meet-and-greet event.
She shared her experience on social media, questioning if unconscious bias influenced the interaction.
Her claims went viral on platforms like TikTok and X, sparking intense criticism from netizens who accused the actor of racism.
Supporters of the actor, however, cautioned against jumping to conclusions, suggesting that the limited, viral footage may lack necessary context, such as security restrictions or simple oversight.
As of now, Choi Woo-shik and his agency have remained silent, leading to a surge of comments on his social media pages.
This incident has ignited a wider discussion about the complexities of celebrity fan interactions and how viral videos shape public perception in the digital age.
