Don't know if this is old news by now but..
The Turkish guy apparently had many girlfriends besides his wife and baby. This info got out online and he's left Korea in midnight run style.

Yep he has had to apologise and he wont be seen on tv again.

Going to head back to Turkey soon.

He had told many girls he was single despite having a wife and kid.
Many of the messages he sent to girls were really bad.
There is a bit of a backlash now. He was the most popular on the show too it seems for being so good at Korean. He was even a translator for Park Geun Hye when the Turkish ambassador or president visited.

It was all going so well for us foreigners.

Isn't this the guy that is supposed to be on a new tv show about road tripping around the US?

I dunno what he was thinking and why he thought he could get away with it.

Get away with what? He was stupid sending the texts but isn't that as far as it's gone? No need to go overboard, is there?

Well, I'm assuming he slept with these women. Unless he gets his rocks off by sending text messages. If he did leave Korea all of a sudden, no idea if he did or not, that kind of confirms it, no?

If he wanted to cheat, should have just gone to a business club.

I'm assuming he didn't sleep with them as the story is about texts. He was stupid doing it anyway as it was obvious someone would grass him. Would he not be in more shit if he'd gone to a business club?

He's been a bad boy but I don't get the hysteria. It was the same with Noh Hyun Chul. Drove 30 metres over the limit. Bad but no need for hime to be off the TV. Not for that anyway, I'd have fired him for being tragically unfunny...

He has slept with at least some of fhe girls he was sending messages to yes. He was prolific.

People asking why its big news...

He is a big celebrity basically appearing on tv left right and centre, ads, signings etc but he is shown to be less than what he appeared.
Telling many girls who he met he was single etc.
Questions are being asked if he is just using the F Visa to avail of all the benefits while not being true to his marriage etc.

A few weeks ago similar thing happened with the very famous comedian Noh Hyun Chul who was drink driving. He is gone completely off tv too.
That s how things roll here.

Well, part of the hysteria is that he has a Korean wife and a kid. Sending these text messages to other females is really offensive. Plus, he is quoted on the Abnormal Summit saying that he thinks people who cheat on their wife should be shot. So he is also a hypocrite for saying that and then presumably cheating on his own wife.

With Hong Chul it was all about his attitude when handling the DUI. He kept refusing to take the breathalyzer test and forced the officers to take him to the station for a blood test. Then he repeatedly said that he wasn't that drunk, but his BAC was a lot higher than the legal limit. Not to mention that Hong Chul was loved by fans of the Infinity Challenge and arguably the 2nd most popular aside from Yu Jae Suk.

Well the hypocrisy of saying people who do that should be shot is what does for him as far as I can see. I think if he's made a big mistake with his wife and kid but it's not as if he's the only one. If it's just text messages then that's bad but worse things have happened at sea!

With Hong Chul it was all about his attitude when handling the DUI. He kept refusing to take the breathalyzer test and forced the officers to take him to the station for a blood test. Then he repeatedly said that he wasn't that drunk, but his BAC was a lot higher than the legal limit. Not to mention that Hong Chul was loved by fans of the Infinity Challenge and arguably the 2nd most popular aside from Yu Jae Suk.


Isn't that his legal right? If it wasn't he would have been arrested for refusing, so I guess he's allowed to go to the station. He said he wasn't that drunk, it's possible to feel sober and be over the limit so him merely saying at some point that he 'wasn't that drunk' is not unusual, even if it is irrelevant.

Finally, so what if he is loved by fans and is popular? Does one have to behave like a monk if so? Mick Jagger/Keith Richards lots of other celebs have done all sorts but are still loved by people.

If he's so popular why can't people just say, 'nevermind, he made a mistake'...?
