Choi Siwon, a member of the group Super Junior and an actor, personally intervened after spotting a foreign tourist smoking inside Gyeongbokgung Palace. He is drawing attention for the way he stopped the individual, using brief, polite English rather than raising his voice or engaging in an argument.
A recently released YouTube video shows Choi Siwon touring Gyeongbokgung Palace in Seoul alongside volunteer guide Yang In-eok. The two walked through the palace grounds, exploring the history and significance of the site.
During the tour, Choi Siwon’s attention was drawn to a foreign tourist who was smoking. Upon spotting someone smoking within the palace, an area frequented by many visitors, Choi did not hesitate to approach the tourist.
Choi Siwon said, "Excuse me, please," to the tourist, clearly signaling a request for them to stop smoking. The foreigner understood the request and immediately put out the cigarette, and Choi Siwon wrapped up the situation by saying, "Thank you." Attention was drawn to the fact that Choi Siwon, a global star with a vast international fanbase, took direct action rather than simply watching the situation unfold.
Afterward, Choi Siwon resumed his tour of Gyeongbokgung Palace, reflecting on the significance of Korean history and cultural heritage. The video concluded with a message emphasizing the value of freedom and peace, adding a deeper meaning to the visit beyond a simple tour of the palace.

He did well. This is something that requires courage from anyone. And it's nice that celebrities can take the lead in acting like this

Are we really dividing this issue into the left VS right? Please can we stop interpreting everything as politics... This is just a good deed
3. [+803, -147]
Are there any other celebrities who, like Choi Siwon, steadfastly stand by their convictions and speak their minds, even when facing backlash and gaining antis? Most are just opportunists who flip-flop depending on the situation, aren't they? South Korea is truly rotten to the core, and Choi Siwon is just so cool!
