Lee was asked about his personal life and the scrutiny of his wife’s family during the news conference.

“I think I have caused the misunderstanding that ‘family is not at fault’ as the question suggests,” he said.

The issues of his wife’s family must not interfere with their own household, he stressed.

Lee sought to distance himself from the controversy during the promotion of “Big Family,” saying, “I have always said that my wife’s family’s affairs are my wife’s family’s affairs.

“However, fans are confused by the wave of statements as they seem to be jarring against film source material that doesn’t match Lee’s personal beliefs and ideology.

Many fans are feeling disillusioned, with one writing on theqoo: “It calls into question his sincerity and family values.”

Lee’s comments received a mixed reaction, with online backlash continuing to grow. Others lamented how he can make a movie about family when he is so far away from his.
