K-pop girl group Lovelyz member Lee Mi-joo, better known as Mijoo, has apologised for asking intrusive questions about a college student’s sex life during her YouTube show.
In a statement released on the group’s social media, Mijoo apologised “for making the fans uncomfortable with such unthoughtful comments”.
In the June 26 episode of her YouTube reality show Mijoo Pickchu, she was interviewing a male student on the street when she made comments such as, “How far did you go with your girlfriend?” and “You’ve gone all the way, I’m sure”.
After the man said “we’ve only kissed”, she laughed and responded “Are you even a man?” – with the caption saying, “Why are you looking down there Mijoo?”
The clip resurfaced this week and drew harsh criticism, with some people demanding that Mijoo apologise for her “sexual harassment”.
