Baek Jong-won is finished because of Paik-Ham, right?

People even tolerated Vol-katsu. His die-hard fans kept defending him, using logic like "who forced you to eat it?" to make excuses.
But with the Paik-Ham situation, it's not like he's treating the public like idiots.
The truth is, he was always supposed to sell it at the original price while pretending to offer a discount,
but he got caught acting like he didn't know and being stubborn, and it blew up ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
How much of a fool did he think the public was? ㅋㅋ
