Critics Slam Song Jieun's Brother-in-Law's 'Humiliating' Wedding Speech: 'Inappropriate and Insensitive'

Tags

A wedding speech delivered by Park We's younger brother, Park Ji Woo, at the marriage ceremony of Secret member Song Jieun and YouTube content creator Park We is causing a stir on social media. The couple got married on October 9, 2024, in a "fairytale" wedding.

The event's video was shared on Park We's Weracle YouTube channel and appears to be filled with warm, heart-rending moments of laughter and support for the couple.

However, Song Ji Woo's speech seems to allude to more reaction among netizens. The reaction appears to be hinged on the fact that the speech mainly focuses on Park We's past accident and the subsequent paralysis.

In the emotional address, Ji Woo details his family's struggles starting ten years ago while trying to come to terms with the fact that his brother was in the hospital. Park We was involved in an accident ten years ago that paralyzed his entire body, and he had resigned to being a quadriplegic.

However, his hospitalization turned around Park Ji Woo's life as he started resuming normal life. The younger brother proceeded to thank the Secret member for her undying love and support for his brother.

"Never in my life have I ever heard more reliable words coming from someone," Ji Woo said. He was referring to a situation at the gym that started everything. "I cannot think of anyone I trust more in the whole wide world," concludes Ji Woo in his speech.

While most netizens sided with Ji Woo's sentiments, they termed the speech "unnecessary" and "humiliating." Some of the conversations on social platform theqoo hinted that the speech implied Jieun was a caretaker.

The netizens could not help but think that Jieun was getting married to take care of Ji Woo. "I'm shocked by what I learned from this speech," one netizen said. "It seems like he was getting willingly getting rid of his burden of an older brother to someone he massively trusts".

Others implored the netizens to remember that the YouTube content creator had shared the story on Park We's channel before. Fans continue to enjoy excerpts from the wedding speech focusing on the couple's union.
