Actor Kim Min-kyo Releases Parody Video of December 3 Incident
Depicts Family Situation with President Yoon and First Lady
"Trying to Stay Neutral, but Beyond Common Sense"
Actor Kim Min-kyo released a video parodying the December 3 emergency martial law incident. On the 19th, he posted on his social media (SNS), "As someone who does political parodies, I try to remain as neutral as possible, but the recent events have gone beyond common sense regardless of left or right," adding, "Even I felt I should be cautious while making this parody." He then shared a teaser photo with the caption 'Dad's Martial Law,' saying, "I'm uploading my ambitious work today. Please enjoy it."
In the video titled 'I Tried OOO Because of My Dad's Love' uploaded on his YouTube channel 'Kim Min-kyo Gathering,' Kim Min-kyo parodied President Yoon, and comedian Lee Se-young parodied First Lady Kim Kun-hee. In the video, Kim Min-kyo said, "Family members, listen carefully as this is an urgent announcement. As the head of the household, I hereby declare that I will strictly enforce discipline to correct the lax and negligent order in our home."
He continued, "Ordering delivery food is an anti-family act that could lead to our family's financial ruin, so it is prohibited. Excessive smartphone use paralyzes communication within the family, so I will change the Wi-Fi password to block access."
When the children protested, saying, "Dad, you're so strict," Kim Min-kyo responded, "Strict? From now on, slang like 'really like,' 'really dislike,' and 'really strict' will also be regulated and can only be used under control." When a child asked, "Shouldn't we vote on these things?" he replied, "No voting. Voting is the worst. If you don't listen, I'll call the soldier uncle. You know how scary he is." The parody video ends with the rebellious children ordering delivery food and running away.
Parodies related to the December 3 emergency martial law continue to emerge. Recently, suspicions arose that former and current intelligence commanders met at a Lotteria restaurant in Ansan, Gyeonggi Province, to premeditate martial law. This has led to the creation of images using generative artificial intelligence (AI) to depict the scene, and phrases like "Give me the coup d'?tat pack" and "Emergency (鷄) martial law internal (卵) burger" have become popular.
