The wife of the South Korean goalkeeper was unexpectedly attacked.

On June 26th, Wowtv reported that actress and model Kim Jin Kyung unexpectedly became the center of controversy. The actress continuously received malicious comments from football fans following her husband, goalkeeper Kim Seung Gyu's, performance at the 2026 World Cup. On June 19th, the South Korean team lost 0-1 to host Mexico in their second match. The only goal of the game came after Kim Seung Gyu failed to control the ball, creating an opportunity for midfielder Luis Romo to score. (Image: Spotv News)

This mistake led to a wave of fierce criticism from fans directed at the 1990-born goalkeeper. However, the outrage didn't stop at Kim Seung Gyu personally; it also spread to his family. Despite not being involved in the match, Kim Jin Kyung became the target of many negative comments on social media. Attacks even appeared under a video documenting her pregnancy and childbirth that the actress recently posted on YouTube. (Photos: Yonhap News, Biztribune)

Under increasing pressure, Kim Jin Kyung had to disable comments on Instagram and only allow subscribers to her YouTube channel to leave comments. Previously, Kim Jin Kyung shared a video documenting her childbirth preparations and the moments of welcoming her daughter. In the description, she wrote: "After a long labor, I finally got to meet Dalbam on Wednesday. The labor pains were more intense than I expected, but I'm so happy to have met my child."
