Korean-American actor Steven Yeun and wife make headlines for alleged dog leash conflict

Steven Yeun and his wife are making headlines in South Korea for allegedly getting caught up in a dog leash conflict.

On March 26, one netizen posted to their Instagram about an alleged encounter with the Korean-American actor and his wife at Griffith Park in Los Angeles, California. According to Korean media outlets, a dog was walking off-leash in an area designated for pets to be on-leash when it suddenly began running towards their own dog. When the netizen shouted for the off-leash dog's owner, Steven Yeun is said to have showed up to retrieve the pet, saying, "Sorry." 

The netizen claims, "We as a couple told him, 'This isn't an off-leash park. You must put dogs on a leash,'" and Steven Yeun's wife is said to have responded that she comes to the park often and doesn't appreciate being told how to raise her dog. When the netizen expressed that not everyone is okay with a dog running at them, the actor's wife allegedly responded, "I don't care. I don't work here."

According to the Instagram post, Steven Yeun then explained his wife was pregnant, implying she was going through an emotional time. The netizen concluded they were incredibly angered by the situation and shared a video of who they allege to be the actor putting a leash on his dog.

The post has since been deleted from Instagram.
