Kim Ki Ri blocks SNS comments following backlash after playing 'matchmaker' for Park Wi and Song Ji-eun couple

Comedian Kim Ki Ri has recently been caught in the crossfire of a controversy for playing the so-called 'matchmaker' role in arranging the meeting of the Park Wi and Song Ji-eun couple. As of the morning of the 31st, Kim Ki Ri has blocked the comment function on his SNS, making communication impossible except for some posts.

This situation began with a video posted by Park Wi on his YouTube channel 'We Miracle' on the 21st. Park Wi released CCTV footage showing him tripping over a social service agent while disembarking from a KTX, publicly targeting the worker in question.

However, netizens who watched the video reacted that it was excessive for a YouTuber with 1 million subscribers to criticize a specific individual by releasing CCTV footage. In particular, the controversy grew due to the fact that he filmed a reenactment video at the scene immediately after the accident and emphasized only his own claims by editing the scenes of the workers' apologies.

Afterward, some netizens began to visit the SNS of Kim Ki Ri, who facilitated the In-Yun between Park Wi and Song Ji-eun, to leave malicious comments. As the controversy escalated, Park Wi posted an apology stating that he failed to consider the position of the workers, but public indignation is not easily subsiding.
