Song Joongki Receives Criticism For Claiming That Male Actors Lose Their Job Over Getting Married And Having Kids

Song Joongki receives criticism for claiming that male actors lose their job over getting married and having kids.

Although the actor received congratulatory comments from fans all across the globe, his comments from an interview in China have rubbed some people the wrong way. He was asked about balancing parenthood and his career:

“Your movie has been premiered at Cannes, while your baby is on the way. The Chinese have this saying, ‘a double harvest in work and family life.’ What do you think about the relationship between the two?”

“Being a father and being a husband means that you can lose your job in this business”

??????

Since when male actors ever got any repercussion from announcing their marriage…..?

Right now the international fans are swearing a ton on Korea.

It seemed that Song Joong Ki was attempting to explain that being married can limit an actor in getting certain roles, but his remarks have sparked a heated debate among various online community users.

Online community users questioned the validity of his statement since the times have changed, and various renowned actors are able to be cast for dynamic roles despite being parents and their marital status.

But so many actors who have gotten married are still able to promote just fine, there are also lots of them who are still just as popular. You just need to be a good actor. What is he saying?

3. Ah of course, because he’s Song Joongki

4. Of course, I can’t agree with him, although I’ve seen female actresses change jobs after they decided to marry and get kids

5. What is he saying? I don’t get it… Why would he even say that? Just do a good job and that’s it

6. I’ve always liked Song Joongki, but he’s breaking my heart with the way he talksㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

7. ??????? Does Song Joongki have a kid?
