Her debut sparked a significant debate— some claims that followed her career both before and after she stepped into the spotlight.

International K-pop fans were particularly vocal, with many demanding her exit from the...

Obviously one could point the reasoning towards the Korean wave, along with the fantasy of K-pop idols and K-drama actors. However, do these dramas actually represent some sort of reality? Are Korean men actually like that to some extent? And is that why foreigners tend to like Korean men? Or is it just fetishization? We brought some actual Korean men into the studio Joe and...

Despite Korea having a record-low in birth rate(0.7, 2023), certain store owners are not allowing kids/children to enter their stores. Parents with kids are upset about the matter claiming that it is discriminatory. However, the majority of Koreans seem to think 'No-kids zones' are ok and is the freedom of the store owner. Many argue that this type of freedom is a slippery slope, as we have seen other kinds of entrance restrictions towards certain ethnicities and minorities in the past. In...

Korea might be pro-America on almost all matters, except maybe 3 things: Drugs, Guns, and TIPPING. American tipping culture has been getting out of control in the United States, where the standard has become 20-25%, according to several news sources and Americans. Ironically, the American tipping culture has been slowly infiltrating the Korean society. And we're not talking about small store owners putting up tip jars or recommending tips to their servers. The biggest tech conglomerate of...
