You should have learnt history as you had preached. China once did believe everyone else in the world was inferior to them and learnt it was not true in a cruel way through "Opium War". Also, a basic knowledge in Chinese will educate you why USA is beautiful, Germany is righteous and Thailand is peaceful in Chinese. It's transliteration.
That has to be one of the most telling comment ever. Yeah, let's stand for someone ONLY if they're fromour own family. Stranger be damned. That's the perfect mindset for bullying to thrive. Nobody doing jackshit for other kids being bullied right in front of them because "sorry dude, not my family, lawlz!!". These people are so dense it kinda hurts.
What a dense comment. He was in no way to know what Soojin did or did not do in middle school. He was in no position to defend her over the accusation. He was not her family and not even lived in Korea. How could he know all facets of Soojin? I won't be surprised if Seulgi's mom didn't know Irene had that pungent side until the stylist dissing scandal broke.
I think you missed the scope of my statement. The statement was regarding to the Korean War ERA, not the cold war ERA. Two different times, two different Chinas under two completely different leaders.
Also, I don't think VVisual meant banning even though it was stated but more emphasis on prejudice. The thing is, prejudice is prevalent among most Asian societies because of Race Superiority and cultural differences particularly ideology... Some Koreans think they are the best while on the other hand some Chinese think they're the most superior race (You see this quite often with Chinese people calling themselves the "Original Korean Overlords" while they think U.S. is the current). It's similar to how during the #CancelKorea movement, many Korean's stereotyped Filipinos on the internet call them short, dark, etc... Koreans restricting Chinese and their culture isn't groundless accusation, because it's exist and vice vera. The difference is, the Korean government isn't doing it but their citizens and entities. The reason why the government doesn't take action is because China's impact on Korea's economy is significant. If the Korean government takes measures on the Chinese government, Chinese government will for sure take reciprocal measures, and the effect will be magnitudes greater than Korea's restrictions on China and it'll be too much for Korea to bare (recall china's boycott of Korean travel because of THAAD, it hit Korea's tourist industry extremely hard particularly the working class). Furthermore, if you follow international politics, if the pandemic wasn't present, the Korean President planned on visiting China for bilateral talks to tighten the relationship.
Korean War (1950-1953) clearly took place during Cold War (1947-1953).
The unanimous private rejection to consume Chinese content is nothing similar to Chinese state sanction. Neither it is universally labeled as a form of ban nor restriction.
Yes, both the Korean and the Chinese can be extreme on nationalism. The name of China in Chinese is 中国, which original meant the country that was the center of the world. How full of oneself to name one's country that way.
However the Korean (or the Chinese) views SEA is irrelevant to this topic.
When the Korean citizen has already rejected to consume Chinese content, there is zero use to officially prohibit it. Just like how India has never banned Chinese drama nor film despite banned various Chinese products.
If you followed international politics well, you should have been aware of "the Quad". USA and Japan have been courting South Korea to join anti-China alliance currently consisting of USA, Japan, India and Australia. This is a reason why China has become somewhat more friendly to South Korea.
"In 1970, then-South Korean President Park Chung-hee banned Chinese characters from being taught in schools or used in official documents."

So, Park Chunghee only banned Chinese characters in textbooks and state documents but not private publishing? If I understand right, most South Korean newspapers at the time occasionally used Chinese characters to disambiguate.
It's weird how they're airing at the same time though.
Previously, Youth With You was slated to start airing 1 day before Chuang but Tencent made last minute decision to move up the airing of Chuang 1 day faster.
China surely was not a small insignificant nation during Cold War. It is a common knowledge in SEA that the communist militia in the region was armed with the Chinese support.
Korea doing it is neither better nor worse than China blocking (some) Korean stuff now.
It is not just entertainment where banning and prejudice occurs. It is across all of Korean society. Some of the most famous food (featured in K-movies/dramas) are Chinese and the Chinese people who developed it in Korea suffered a lot of prejudice.
South Korean has NOT banned Chinese content. It's just the lack of demand. The prejudice is a whole another topic.

Women's right and child protection network reports Ch3 over inappropriate depiction in "Wife on Duty"
Various organizations working on women's rights and child protection collaboratively reported Ch3 to Communication Committee over the controversial scene in "Wife on Duty". The drama depicted the lead female being raped and recorded by a man.
The rep of women's right and child protection network said the unnecessary scene normalized raping/sexual harassment and to air such violent content before 10 pm violated the rule set by the committee.

Yes, people also ignore the fact that Korea banned Chinese language and culture too until the 1980s. It also destroyed the use of hanja (Chinese characters) which until 1949 was used by Koreans for practically since the birth of the nation.
Culture is always politicized by Koreans too.
South Korea has never banned the use of hanja, only North Korea has. The use of hanja (in South Korea) diminished due to the removal from standard education curriculum but has been revived in a degree.
It's important to understand history so one can get the bigger picture. These survival shows although are licensed from Korea, the Korean survival shows are derived from Japan. Prior to Kpop's rise, Japanese entertainment was the driving force in Asia. Korea's government saw this as a threat to their own culture so they barred import of Japanese culture. Even til today, japanese words may not be streamed on Korean TV. Point is, it has nothing to do with discredit or greed but for their country to develop their own pop culture.
FYI, Politics rule all sovereignty not just China's.
- Not all these survival shows are licensed by the Korean entity.
- Produce format did not derived from any Japanese show but inspired by AKB48's election and, obviously K-pop idol training system and Sixteen (by JYPE). Japan itself never had a tv survival show similar to Produce.
- Korean govt banned Japanese culture not because J showbiz was a threat but to wipe out the remnant or Japanese colonization.

Thai stars and entertainment have been making big headway in China lately. New Thai Boys' Love dramaI Told Sunset About You has received high marks on Chinese media review platforms, surpassing the scores of several Chinese works and capturing the hearts of Chinese audiences. Meanwhile, Thai stars in popular dramas introduced to China have been gaining more fans in the country, even edging out some K-pop idols.
These moves, along with the rise in popularity of Thai dramas, are indicators of the increasing influence of Thai entertainment culture in China.
No way. No self hate but T-ent is way behind K-ent. I have not watched Thai drama for ages. The production quality albeit (slowly) improving, still is way beneath and the scenario is even worse. Thai producers themselves complaint about the lack of good scenarists in the country.

the first widely known k-pop artist in Thailand is Baby V.O.X. There was also Paran that promoted in Thailand and somewhat recognized. Earliest K-pop artist to get popular in Thailand possibly is Rain, followed closely by Super Junior.
The first Hallyu content to commercially published in Thailand is the film "Shiri" but not well received. Korean film and drama were glossed over until "My Sassy Girl" and Autumn In My Heart" hit Thailand.

Why is Won Young so low on that chart? I thought she was the center of the group and maybe the most popular. And why is Chaewon so high? I've never seen anyone talking about her as a favorite in Izone, i've seen some probably troll comments insulting her for her visuals.
Wonyoung is by far most popular in Korea but Sakura wins everywhere else. She can be seen as most popular due to the presentation in Korean media/online forum.

2. Give up on Rakhine state and hand it over to the Rohingya.
If any ruler choose 2, he/she and his/her family will be cursed for centuries to come and, uh, good luck to the Buddhist who will become minority in Rakhine.
Whatever Myanmar govt will do or not do with the Rohingya, someone will suffer.
So you're saying each and every Rohingya should be killed
The majority of the Myanmar wants UK to take these peoples as they were brought in by the British. UK is willing to take 3mil Hongkongers, it can take 900k Rohingya too, right?
The Rohingya is not innocent sheep victim and they are burden to Myanmar's economy and peace. If no strict measure is done on the Rohingya, the majority Buddhist will be victimized. There is no win-win situation. One side must lose. Who should it be, majority Buddhist or minority Rohingya?
My country has had Muslim terrorism separatist and, following human right activists' guidance, a part of the country must have lost, the terrorist must have achieved its goal.
