A video released on Yeongju City's official Instagram on the 29th of last month surpassed 700,000 views in just two days, and as of the 1st, it has more than 37,000 likes and more than 1,000 comments. The video shows a solemn expression . Um Tae-hyun, Deputy Mayor of Yeongju City, wearing a white dress shirt and tie, takes a bite of a Punggi ginseng root and walks among about 60 officials dressed in black clothes. Once Deputy Mayor Eom secures his place in the middle of the ranks , The group dance begins to the rhythm of music, and on the very back row, a sign that reads, 'If you're feeling low, come to Punggi,' announces the Punggi Ginseng Festival. About 60 officials of grade 5 or higher from Yeongju City Hall participated in the video shoot, and their outfits were the black uniforms typically worn during wildfire emergency duty. The video parodied the music video 'STORM II' by the French music project Generation (GENER8ION) and Swedish rapper Yung Lean. Instead of AI, Yeongju City produced the challenge video by having public officials directly appear and perform group dances, but on social media, reactions followed: "Who planned it?", "It's even more amazing that it wasn't made with AI," and "The video succeeded because the staff weren't young." It wasn't that great,,, but why is everyone making such a fuss??????
