In July 2011 Takaoka made headlines and attracted much controversy for several comments against the airing of Korean dramas on Japanese television. He stated on Twitter “I used to be indebted to Fuji TV in the past, but now I’m suspicious that they may actually be a Korean network. I’m questioning about what country I’m in as well. It offends me. If anything related to Korea is on broadcast, I just turn the TV off. It troubles me because I feel like I am being brainwashed”, and “Since we’re in Japan, I would like to see Japanese programs. I get scared every time I hear the word, ‘Hallyu'”. His comments resulted in a strong public backlash due to his previous role as a Zainichi Korean in the film Pacchigi as well as public protests against the airing of Korean dramas against Fuji TV. Due to the controversy about his statements he was reportedly dropped from his agency following his Tweets and his marriage to Aoi Miyazaki whom he stated shared his views was reportedly in jeopardy. However he later apologized for his statements and retracted his claims of Miyazaki sharing his views.
