After actor Jung Woo-sung made his first official position on extramarital affairs, controversy continues.

Amid growing interest in unmarried childbirth due to this incident, some point out that it should be used as an opportunity for systematic support.

Reporter Kim Seung-hwan reports.

Actor Jung Woo-sung made a surprise appearance at the Blue Dragon Film Awards and vowed to fulfill his responsibilities by mentioning his son.

Whether it comes out or not, it is a breakthrough in a situation where criticism cannot be avoided.

[Kim Hun-sik / Culture critic (YTN appearance): What's important is that Jung Woo-sung's activities will be very important. Taking responsibility... I don't think there will be any obstacles to future work or social activities.]

There was also a positive response that it came to the point that he said he would fulfill his responsibilities in public, but
There were various opinions, such as the person trying to avoid
personal history, the cheering movie industry, and the public criticism that it was uncomfortable to watch.

However, apart from this, it is clear that this incident has raised the topic of 'out-of-wedlock childbirth' in our society.

The percentage of unmarried children was only 2% five years ago, but it is steadily increasing, approaching 5% last year.

[Ha Jae-geun / Cultural Critic (YTN appearance): The system of our society is a little blind spot for non-marriage. Various support systems should be created for non-marital childbirth to come into the system...]

It was not even interested in proportion to the increased ratio of out-of-wedlock children, but as this incident made non-marital childbirth public,
We are interested in whether it will lead to changes in
awareness and close support.
