Actor Choi Hyun-wook posted and then deleted a photo presumed to show nudity on Instagram, causing a stir.

On the 13th, Choi Hyun-wook uploaded a photo to his Instagram story to confirm the purchase of a bear-shaped interior accessory.

The issue was Choi Hyun-wook's reflection in the product. The silhouette reflected in the photo appeared to show Choi Hyun-wook without underwear, exposing his private parts and seemingly photographed in the nude.

Choi Hyun-wook immediately deleted the photo, but it had already spread across social media and various online communities, sparking controversy. Comments on Choi Hyun-wook's Instagram included "Saw all the photos you posted," "You didn't post it on purpose, right?" "Didn't you check before uploading the story?" "Why was it a reflective material of all things?" "How many scandals is this now?" "Is this a disgrace?" and more.

Meanwhile, Choi Hyun-wook's agency, Gold Medalist, stated that they have no official position regarding this incident.
