Kang Daniel Criticized For "rude" and "ignorant" comments during 'Street Man Fighter' finale broadcast

 

Kang Daniel is under controversy once again for his comments.

During the live finale episode of 'Street Man Fighter', Kang Daniel thanked an advertiser as he concluded the program. However, the advertiser he thanked wasn't the main sponsor. 

Kang Daniel stated loudly, "I would also like to thank our sponsor. Trevi is delicious! I'm kidding. I'm half serious." The main sponsor for the program was 'Seagram' who assisted in production for 6 months. For the main sponsor, the scene was bound to be embarrassing. 

A broadcasting official criticized his comments stating, "An MC needs to know the basic rules. This is was essentially a broadcast accident."

An advertising industry official stated, "No one is asking him to be polite to advertisers but at least don't be ignorant and rude."

Kang Daniel was also previously under controversy for his "noona eyeliner" comments regarding 'Street Woman Fighter' cast. 

His agency, KONNECT Entertainment, apologized directly to Dispatch on the 9th and stated, "The heat of the finale was so hot that there was a moment of confusion so he blurted out the incorrect brand."

Meanwhile, Mnet has removed his comment from the replay and added BGM. They also came up with a solution stating, "We plan to revise the last part by Kang Daniel and do a re-run of the broadcast."  (Daily Naver Blog)

During a live event, Kang Daniel introduced the show's sponsors by saying, "I would like to greet our sponsors. Trevi is delicious. Nah, I'm joking. Maybe I half meant it." Unfortunately, the show's sponsor is not Trevi but another sparkling water brand Seagram, which caused viewers to comment, "He didn't just mention the wrong brand but even emphasized that it was good as a joke", "He said something controversial last time too, why does he keep saying random things like this;;", "He would really be farther in his career if he'd just stay quiet ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ", "Mistake or not, that's a huge mistake to make ㅋㅋㅋ"

1. [+140] He's been ruining himself with his mouth for a while now ㅠㅠㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

2. [+81] I don't get why our country never lets people just make a mistake and move on. Enough with eating people alive for their mistakes. People are so quick to jump on celebrities for anything.

3. [+10] Trevi #win

4. [+21] Waste of a promo slot... sigh...

5. [+18] Was he drunk? ㅋㅋ

6. [+13] That was a slip of the mouth indeed

7. [+3] He ended up promoting both brands at once ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

8. [+3] I think he was trying to make a joke but no one found it funny ㅋㅋㅋ Come on, guys. It's not like he's a criminal like Kim Sa Ron or GD, just let it go. Being boring is not a crime.

9. [+2] His mouth is always the issue.... (NetizenBuzz Blog)
