Actress Ki Eun Se Under Fire For Causing Public Nuisance With The Remodeling Of Her House, Issues Apology After Netizens Complain
Actress Ki Eun Se has become embroiled in a “public nuisance controversy” after nearby residents complained about inconvenience caused during the remodeling of her detached house in Pyeongchang-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul.
Recently, a post written by a netizen identifying themselves as a family member of a Pyeongchang-dong resident was uploaded to an online community. The writer, referred to as A, complained, “Ki Eun Se is moving into my parents’ neighborhood, and the house has been under renovation for months. Construction vehicles are taking over the alleyways, making it difficult even for a single car to pass through.”
A continued, “There is construction waste and dust everywhere, but cleaning is not being properly handled. The construction, which was originally supposed to finish in mid-April, got pushed back to mid-May, and now they’re saying they don’t even know when it will end.” In particular, the person strongly criticized what they described as a sense of privilege, saying, “Isn’t this the mindset that sacrifices from neighbors are acceptable just because she’s a celebrity?” while calling for basic common sense and courtesy toward local residents.
As the post gained attention and controversy spread, a representative from Ki Eun Se’s side quickly responded. In a follow-up post, A stated, “I received an apology message from Ki Eun Se’s representatives, and they personally visited the site and promised to improve the parking and waste disposal issues,” adding that the situation had been resolved for the time being.
Previously, Ki Eun Se had continuously shared updates about moving into the Pyeongchang-dong detached house through her YouTube channel and social media. She had also spoken about the difficulties at the site, saying, “The construction has been delayed a lot because we had to replace old facilities, and the costs have risen much more than expected, putting us in a difficult situation.”
