Interesting interview. Do you have any more information about the "poll among North Korean refugees"? Did Chosun…
As Ebi said, it appears in Mr. Schönherr's book. The poll was conducted in 2002. I have also seen it mentioned in an academic paper about Hong Gildong.
First and foremost, bullying happens in all societies, Korea is no exception. However, in other countries bullying…
Now I'm Russian? LMAO! You said it as if there were anything wrong with being Russian. Your comment reeks of racism and xenophobia. I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I'm not Russian. xD
1. Okay, you keep insulting and showcasing your astounding lack of manners. Nothing new here.
2. It's not a claim but a self-evident truth. False accusations destroy and have destroyed lives. That's why presumption of innocence and due process exist. Your outlandish analogies won't change reality.
3. Your definition of "civilized discussion" is just as skewed as the Kremlin's definition of "democracy."
I suggest to stop this conversation. I don't think we'll reach an agreement or get something positive from it.

It's literally witch hunting and eroding the presumption of innocence, since it's no more than unproven anonymous accusations on social media. It's a self-evident truth, and we have already seen it in Korea and in the West.
If he's innocent or not, it doesn't really matter. His career is most likely over anyway. The mob has already decided that he's guilty. Period. This is the great damage false accusations can do. We don't know if he's innocent or no. All I'm saying is that it should be decided based on evidence.
Also, I believe I have enough knowledge on Korea, its society, customs, laws and judicial system not to feel the need to flaunt in front of internet strangers. Only people who are insecure or unsure of their knowledge resort to arrogance and flaunting in place of arguments.
You called me a "trash human" and baselessly accused me of "spreading misogyny." In the light of that, you're the least appropriate person to lecture others on education and having civilized discussions.
Jisoo could have been bully. Or he could have not been on. The victim could have been a victim, or could have…
I agree. It's absurd to claim he's guilty or innocent. No one knows. Accusations without evidence on social media are one of the evils that come along with technology.

I read your comment with great interest, especially since you explained very well some problems affecting Korean society and its judicial system. Those problems, however, don't justify witch huntings and eroding presumption of innocence. That's not progress but regression.
That's why the rest of your comment surprised me. You started really well, but then went downhill to what basically constitutes smear and extremism.
- "You don't need to answer - I already know what you are going to say."
Of course I don't. You already decided I'm a terrible person and guilty of whatever you come up with, no matter what I say. This is your mentality, which I suspect you wouldn't want to have it applied to you on equal terms.
- "Consider yourself lucky since nobody knows your real name and you are not famous. Yet."
people like you are literally why victims don't feel like coming forward with their stories - you literally don't…
"Is it really revenge or justice?"
It sounds more like revenge to me. How can anonymous comments online do any justice?
"In Korea all accounts can be traced by the police."
If the server is based in Korea, yes. If it's based abroad, it's difficult. There are also many obfuscation methods. The Police doesn't have the same tools as the NIS.
"If these alligations are WRONG he can sue them all!"
It's crazy that you are able to still call yourself a "community manager" on here
People are just expressing their opinion. And so am I. There's nothing wrong with having different opinions, but there's something very wrong indeed with not respecting other people's right to have their own opinions.
Unfortunately, I have not got my hands into Trashfilm Roadshow, but it's definitely on my plan-to-read list :)

Is that supposed to be a threat? WTF.

Sure, but the damage has already been done.
What happened to having civilized discussions?
