Stars in crisis due to over-the-top sexual expressions

Hwasa recently performed on the stage of 'Daedongje', a festival held at Sungkyunkwan University. In addition to performing a medley of his group Mamamoo's hit songs, he also sang 'Don't Give Me' with guest Loco. Hwasa's 'obscene expressions' on that stage became a problem. Make a licking motion with your tongue and then place your hand on a specific body part.
At the scene, cheers erupted over Hwasa's actions. The story goes that Hwasa's expressions added to the hot atmosphere of the scene, adding to the excitement. However, some netizens who saw this raised their voices of criticism, saying that they were offended by the performance.
A scene centered around adults, the song's concept, Hwasa's image, etc. There are many reasons to explain this performance. Hwasa is also a celebrity who has met the public with her free sexual ideas.
Hwasa has been creating issues from a sexual perspective. You can tell just by looking at the no-bra fashion shown at the airport. However, the continued criticism of obscene language is a public judgment that Hwasa must reflect on.
Even for Hwasa herself, obscene performances can be an obstacle to entertainment activities. This is because numerous celebrities have been criticized for their ‘sexual expression’ that crosses the line.

At that time, in the process of introducing Heijini and the doll, Park Na-rae not only made comments that were 19+, but also continued to make sexual descriptions, such as putting the doll's arm between the dies. Accordingly, Park Na-rae, who was in her prime including winning the grand prize at the MBC 2019 ‘Broadcasting Entertainment Awards’, fell from likeable to unfavorable.
The same goes for Shin Dong-yup, who met viewers with sex-related jokes. Shin Dong-yup appeared on the Netflix entertainment show ‘Sex + Character’. Shin Dong-yeop met Japanese adult actor in the program. Contrary to the broadcast's intention to entertain, the public's reaction was cool.

19+ content and obscene expressions have always been a double-edged sword. This is because if the public accepts it cheerfully, it feels refreshing, and if the public accepts it negatively, it causes discomfort. This time, Hwasa's sexual expressions on stage are being criticized as 'excessive'.
