Celebrity Actor’s Provocative Photoshoot Faces Harsh Backlash
Hudson Williams is facing backlash over his latest sexy photoshoot for Wonderland. The lead actor from the hit global show Heated Rivalry has stirred controversy among Korean netizens due to his bold visuals and mixed Korean heritage.
The controversy began with Hudson’s raunchy photoshoot where he sports kiss marks all over his body and flashes his underwear. Many critics slammed the concept as “vulgar” and “tacky.”

Soon after, harsh comments flooded forums like theqoo.
So if you just wear your pants so your underwear shows and draw women’s kiss marks all over your body, that’s supposed to be “hot”?
It doesn’t feel sexy at all, just vulgar and tacky
— Netizen on theqoo
I don’t know who he is, but he kind of looks like Shrek after he turned into a human…
His arms are way too short…
Ugh, my eyes… there’s no demand for this.

As the situation progressed, many fans jumped to Hudson’s defense, highlighting the lack of Asian representation in Western media and calling out the harshness of some comments.
On theqoo, since he’s a foreign celebrity and people think there’s no risk of getting sued, there are seriously people who write trashy comments without holding back.
If someone actually did something bad and people criticize that, fine, but the problem is that even then, they enjoy judging looks more than talking about the incident itself. I honestly wonder what kind of people leave comments like that.
It’s not imported or released domestically, so most people here probably don’t know him well.
He really doesn’t take care of himself.
The photoshoot had a sexy concept, but the interview was a total contrast, which I liked.
It’s kind of surprising to see an Asian man, who gets the lowest treatment in North America, being seen as “hot,” but at the same time, it really shows how intense racism still is. As a fellow Korean, it makes me want to support him even more.
There’s such a solid glass ceiling for Asians in Western entertainment, so I hope he really succeeds and breaks through it in a very visible way.

Hudson’s Korean roots added fuel to the fire, with some fans debating his nationality given his mixed background.
Despite the drama, Heated Rivalry remains a massive global hit, shining a spotlight on the actor.
