Park Jung Min, who will star opposite BLACKPINK's Jisoo in the upcoming K-drama "Newtopia," is being criticized for alleged sexist behavior and attitudes.

This made its way to Korean forums and global forums recently, as accusations on the social media platform X (previously Twitter) emerged.

Park has several other instances of questionable comments and actions alleged against him, as listed down by Kbizoom.

Fan of girl group QWER: There is a history of anti-feminist views from the members of the girl group QWER, whom Park follows.

Bad Song Selection: During a recent movie premiere, he performed raunchy Black Nut lines — one involving "a bus full of prostitutes" coming home with him — even though the crowd was full of teenage girls.

Mischaracterization of Women: Park called Suzy's role in her movie Architecture 101 a "gold-digger" in his self-published essay. That reference was removed in later editions of the essay.

Contentious Remarks About a Co-star: On the topic of actress Moon Geun Young, Park said,"I don't know why I keep getting cast only with men. I want to work with actresses too," which critics argue undermines her identity as a female artist.

Gender Roles Justification: Park had previously justified traditional male roles during holidays in Korea, stating that men should rest while women should handle house chores.

Connections with Offensive Conduct: He has had associations with people who made derogatory remarks about women and illustrated violence against feminists through crude comic drawings.

Park Jung Min's reps have yet to comment on the matter, in spite of the increasing outcry. As the drama Newtopia looms large ahead, people are starting to wonder what this news means for the production.
