The singer recently came under fire when it was revealed that a local restaurateur died of sepsis on Oct. 6 after being attacked by Choi’s family dog which was not on a leash at the time.

Both Choi and Choi’s father apologized to the bereaved family on social media but the public is still berating them for not being cautious with their dog.
