@gomdorichick Looks like your complaints are not really directed at me then. You can write to the BBC’s complaints email if you believe we made a factual error. As to Korean media outlets, I do not work there so it won’t help much telling me about them.

So I can expect to hear you call out your peers in the korean media for purposely spreading misinformation about the attendance? Or for you to correct your own employee for intentionally push a narrative that the attendance had any impact on hybe stocks when every stock market in the world was falling the following monday due to your precious president? Or did you expect hybe to withstand a global oil crisis and geopolitical war?

BTS fans commenting on our pod going over the band’s concert numbers: “You are wrong because you didn’t point out (x).” Dear listeners, I’ve made the exact point at the beginning of the episode.

@gomdorichick I made exactly this same point in the pod episode. So I don’t know what you are complaining about.

Well if you gonna point out 260k people didn't show up you also gotta point out the number was estimated by the police, the same police who then blocked off the area making it impossible to swallow 240k standing people. I know this because I stayed at koreana hotel that week. You couldn't even wait for a take away coffe without police waving for you to leave the area. So if no one can stay in the area, how is it supposed to fill up? but that would be asking of you to be professional and do your research but I guess it's too much to ask for from a bbc journalist?

4B activism has arrived in the US, I see

Super interesting that the Intl twitter and Korean twitter are each having their anal/fellation debate at the same time. But the dominant voices are completely different.

Had a chance to debrief on BTS’s return with the BBC folks.

The conversation just flows really well

@TimmyFacciola_ Around 200,000 Koreans live in the city. They might wanna to hear it.

@therealjakekwon Do a lot of New Yorkers care about that?

It’s my turn next to ask him whether he supports the sunshine policy towards Kim Jong Un.

In Korea, families and friends hang a banner with your name above the streets if you get into prestigious schools or chaebol jobs.

curious to see if actively combatting criticism here becomes the industry standard

하지만 한국에서 젠더 이슈를 가장 무게있게 다루는 매체 중 하나로서 이런 기사 내려면 분석을 조금이라도 해야되지 않나. 단독 까지 달고서.

Rather shows how “feminism” as a brand is having a crisis in South Korea, than whatever the actual belief is.

This exists in every Asian country. Competition is fierce tho

South Korea woman and doctors guilty of murder after killing newborn baby bbc.in/4upToh1

You can read the story from me and @solidarity_kr here: bbc.com/news/articles/…

So the authorities have argued that if the baby was killed outside the womb, it was technically already born, therefore it’s not abortion but murder.

The most consequential event in Korea today is probably not the stock market slip but a court ruling on this woman’s case. It will have a big impact on abortions going forward. bbc.com/news/articles/…
