Park Eun Seok apologizes via TikTok for the cultural appropriation issue regarding his new character in “The Penthouse” season 3.
He wrote, “Regarding “The Penthouse” character, Alex,” I’d like to let everyone know that none of the appearances that were driven by the character was to falsly (sic) intentional to harm, mock, disrespect, or discourage the African-American community,” and added, “I’d like to apologize to those who took offense. I, as a minority myself, should’ve known better. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to grow in awareness.”
