For some netizens, Park So-ham's “filthy” habits were quite “unpleasant.” They commented:
“I can't stand people who leave egg skins on the stove or leave dirty snack wrappers everywhere.”
“If he cleans up some dirty wrapping paper and trash…this really doesn't improve his image.”
“It's a big change from some of his past vlogs. Was it all a concept? He used to have a very clean and tidy image, TT.”
“Isn't this a little too 'realistic'? Doesn't he understand that actors need to maintain at least a little image?”
“It’s just disgusting to cover up dirty areas with stickers TT.”
“The trash in the kitchen and the dirty dishes…I feel like throwing up.”
“Can someone please call Brian?”
“He really needs to make more money and get out of there. That's not enough space for a big player like him.”
“Even if that was the whole concept of the show, they should have at least cleaned up the trash before bringing in the film crew…”
“This isn't something that can be fixed just because he moves to a bigger place. His habits scream 'dirty'.”

“I've been to a lot of friends' houses, and the places were worse.”
“Don't overreact. That's normal for young people living alone these days.”
“If he's trying to project an image of being a friendly person, I think he's doing a good job (lol).”
“It's literally not that bad. People are just hurt that this handsome actor is living that way.”
“I'm the same way. I don't wash the dishes right away after I eat. There's a lot of hair on the floor and there's dirt in the washing machine.”
“I just want a Shin-chan sticker.”
“If that's his way of life, leave him alone. If you can't stand the conditions in his house, don't look at him. People overreact too much these days.”
