On April 14, Lee posted a video titled “Poet Hwang Jeong-ja’s Lively Day! [Silver Golden Age]” on her YouTube channel, “Hot Issueji.”
In the video, Lee plays a character named “Hwang Jeong-ja,” a poet, and spends the day dining out, visiting a cafe and shopping at a department store with Na Bok-ja (Na Bo-ram), introduced as a “silver star” who appeared on the TV program “Achim Madang.”
Near the end, Hwang points to her phone and says, “This morning it says this person died.” When the production team tells her it is fake news and should not be believed, she responds angrily, saying people who make such lies “should go to prison.”
As she scrolls through other items, Hwang asks, “So is it also a lie that this person got divorced? Why would there be smoke if there’s no fire?”
Viewers reacted online with comments such as, “It’s like my parents,” “Fake news needs strong punishment,” and “It’s funny, but bitter.”
Lee previously drew widespread attention with an April 7 video titled “Kindergarten Teacher Lee Min-ji’s Never-Ending 24 Hours — Human Documentary: A Real Extreme Job,” parodying a teacher overwhelmed by excessive work and complaints from parents.
