Heejun Han made a fool of himself on American Idol last week, at least in the critical eyes of Steven Tyler. He laid in to this finalist for not taking the opportunity seriously.

We guess? Heejun is clearly not Phillip Phillips, but there’s room for diversity on Idol. Although… will that continue to be the case after tonight? Can Han really survive another cut? Watch his latest audition as we await his fate:
