Popular Celebrity Calling Out Smokers Resurfaces Online

Recently, past clips of actor and model Joo Woo Jae’s honest thoughts about smokers resurfaced online.

This episode was released in October 2023 on the Salon Drip 2 YouTube channel, with Joo Woo Jae as the guest.

He revealed his struggles as the only non-smoker in his friend group.

“A characteristic of our group is that after going into a store for about 10-20 minutes, they have to smoke before going to the next destination.

I guess there’s something in the outside air that makes them turn on a switch to smoking.”

— Joo Woo Jae

“To me, this wastes precious time as we are on vacation, and makes me wonder if we have to keep going like this.

There could be a store we walk into, and no one’s interested in it. I think we were in there for 30 seconds. They have to smoke again.”

— Joo Woo Jae

He also shared his struggles at the airport.

There are separate smoking rooms at airports, and while everyone is in there smoking, I’m waiting outside with all the luggage.

With this, he expressed that he would’ve been fine if they had acknowledged him and told him they would hurry up.

But they smoke comfortably like it’s ok while someone waits for them….

With this, many netizens agreed with his arguments.

• “While scrolling through the post, I can’t help but agree with him. These bastards who take it for granted! Joo Woo Jae feels the same way. I totally agree with him.”
• “I’ve never seen anyone with manners who smokes. Their existence is a social evil.”
• “I hate them so much. Spitting and throwing cigarette butts and smoking in front of playgrounds where kids are.”
• “I totally agree with everything he said…”
• “That’s why I get annoyed when I go on trips with friends who smoke.”
• “Useless existence…”
• “They really don’t care about the smell. Some people don’t get rid of the smell before swimming, so I have to smell cigarettes while at the pool…”
