Park Jin Young Hit With Backlash For Being A Judge on “Street Woman Fighter”

With Mnet’s Woman Street Fighter premiering next month, the judges for the show were revealed.

The judges include Aliya Janell, Mike Song, and Park Jin Young.

Recently, an online community post garnered almost 50,000 views after a netizen was shocked at Park Jin Young being a part of the judge lineup.

A ‘Living Legend’ who’s more sincere in dancing than anyone else. Let us introduce our World-class judge, J.Y. Park.

Although the show introduced him as a “living legend,” the OP wondered if he was suitable for a show that included many popular dancers.

However, many netizens defended Park and felt that he was more than qualified to be a judge on the show.

• “Regardless of liking or disliking him, I think he will be good as a judge.”
• “We love our Jinyoung hyung doing everything he wants.”
• “I think he’s the most suitable out of all the judges on the show.”
• “He’s been choreographing his songs and making songs for other artists after becoming a producer. Professional dancers will judge the technical aspects, and Park can judge the performance and the public’s perspective of the dance.”
• “I don’t see the problem?”
• “I think he suits the position well?”

Meanwhile, the show is scheduled to premiere on May 27 at 10 PM KST.
