Controversy Surrounding “I Live Alone” Grows

MBC‘s I Live Alone host Jun Hyun Moo‘s impromptu trip to Kazakhstan continues to stir controversy. The controversy began with the episode aired on August 14th on I Live Alone. In the episode, Jun Hyun Moo, unexpectedly given a one-night, two-day break, headed to Incheon International Airport without a set destination. He spotted Almaty, Kazakhstan, on the departure board and spontaneously bought a ticket to embark on the trip.
