    Article: "Oppa, I haven't had my period in two months" Mijoo's confession takes Yoo Jae Suk aback

    Mijoo said on 'Sixth Sense 3', "One of my side effects of COVID was skipping my period for two months." Yoo Jae Suk gave her an awkward expression and said, "Stop, we're recording for TV." Mijoo continued, "Oppa, but did I have my period this month?"



    1. [+765, -77] Can you imagine the outrage if Yoo Jae Suk told Mijoo something like how he hasn't had any wet dreams for two months... the gender discrimination is real

    2. [+371, -6] I think people have been too easy on her, she's lost all common sense ㅋㅋ

    3. [+203, -2] It's not that she isn't allowed to say that but why ask that all to Yoo Jae Suk? It's so easy for the situation to be misinterpreted.

    4. [+190, -8] Why is she talking about her period to a man?

    5. [+170, -10] People shouldn't be embarrassed of their periods in front of a man... but if the other person is feeling uncomfortable about it, you should stop...

    6. [+108, -1] I don't reckon Yoo Jae Suk's wife is happy about that exchange

    7. [+91, -1] It's ridiculous that she said something like that but I find it more ridiculous that the TV show didn't edit it out and just broadcast it

    8. [+86, -1] People have been so easy with her that she seems to be just spitting out anything that comes across her mind. I can't stand the fact that she said something like this without an ounce of consideration on her face.

    9. [+65, -3] Something about the way she looks and acts just feels cheap to me

    10. [+59, -1] Imagine how Jae Suk's wife would feel listening to that? It's a variety show but her words are cheap.

    11. [+52, -0] Isn't this the kind of stuff you'd ask your lover?

    12. [+52, -0] Does she have some mental issues? I seriously question what's going on in her head. Sigh, brainless clowns.

    13. [+47, -0] Woman, you can't talk like that to someone else's husband

    14. [+47, -1] She seems like such an airhead~~~ no matter how comfy you are with Yoo Jae Suk, you don't just say those things on TV.. please think before you speak

    15. [+37, -0] This isn't the first time she's said something stupid, who's been protecting her all this time?

    16. [+36, -0] Why did she say that? Yoo Jae Suk's wife must be feeling annoyed.

    17. [+35, -2] Are they that close that he's even managing her period cycles? She seems so cheap.

    18. [+31, -0] Why would she ask that to Yoo Jae Suk... I know that he adores her but it's easy for others to misinterpret their relationship if he knows about her period cycles and all...

    19. [+26, -2] Does she not feel embarrassed? Asking this to a married man on TV?

    20. [+24, -0] Yes, I understand that skipping periods might be a side effect of COVID, but why are you asking about your period cycle to Yoo Jae Suk? Did you think people would find it funny? You actually crossed a line and none of the viewers found it funny so please learn to restrict yourself. You will lose your career like this.

    21. [+25, -4] How close is she with Yoo Jae Suk that she's asking that?

    12. [+21, -0] Yoo Jae Suk needs to cut ties with her. She's not it. Hyori knows how to toe the line but Mijoo has no idea where the line is. Yoo Jae Suk will go down with her if he keeps giving her a second chance.

  • I would rather say that his reaction was weird but it's YJS so people focus on different things

    there are different kind of post corona side effects, and I think it isn't bad to talk about it because some ladies which are fans of this show might be in same situation as Mijoo, and for example be unaware of that, and think it's related to other stuff...

  • It's weird to think how people react awkwardly to periods when it's literally just apart of life.

    why wouldn't it be awkward for YJS when someone young enough to be his daughter keeps asking him why she missed her period.

  • The wet dream thing was stupid but I get the idea. A better example would have been if a man asked a woman about him not having morning wood anymore, that like periods is a normal body reaction. Now this stuff like periods is considered much more personal here in Korea and in alot of Asia information like this is seen as very personal and something that shouldn't be asked of the opposite sex unless you are their doctor, spouse or parent. Yes to you westerners its not a big deal but here its seen as one, the reaction is much greater because it happened to Jae, but the overall sentiment would be the same had it happened between two regular strangers on the street. Guess the idea of learning another culture is a selective process
