mix reaction as Nigeria's first K-drama takes over Korea entertainment industry (nigerian reacts)

This girl na mumu aje, are you not seeing they are also into afro music? Ode ni jor

South Korea having racist people doesn’t make the country itself racist. Was the country built on imperialism and the slavery and labor of another group based on their race? No? Alright then

Discrimination could happen in Korea to SEA people. it's mostly about uneducated, old ppl
But that is not happening everyday. You see, discrimination is everywhere. Half this can be found in most countries across the world as well. Fyi.

Korea has made a lot of progress on the issue in last 30 as it opened up to the international community.

Korea has their differences, just like every country and culture has their own unique differences and set of systematic beliefs which will obviously be unusual if you are not open and used to it. But in my opinion, if you are expecting all these countries to act in ways you’ve been conformed to accept and leave no room for exploration and openness to the culture

To get a good grasp of Korean culture, you really need to travel and live in Korea extensively for some period of time. Without having good command of Korean language and culture, you simply cannot judge Korea from a fair, non-biased point of view.

life in Korea actually is quite nice. No need to worry about safety Convenient to travel. People are educated and polite mostly. Weather isn't bad. Facilities are developed and if you need help you can get it. While Koreans can be culturally conservative, particularly on which city you live in, people are becoming more aware of world issues and meeting foreigners. Korean food is delicious. Korea is both appreciated and underappreciated, depending on the industry. Korea is highly respected in electronics despite confusion of Asian countries, education, and entertainment. It is underappreciated historically. It's great to see Koreans respect their elders and develop camaraderie so easily. Likewise, Koreans are becoming more politically active. They are doing their best to make Korea an attractive place rather than favor stupidity and criminal life. Korean food is delicious.

And the great healthcare in the country is another proof that the country is very safe. the health care system in South Korea is expat-friendly, affordable, and of high quality. South Korea has a national health insurance program that is available to all residents of the country is just one example of the health safeguard that is in place. 

Countries like South korea and Japan have very low crime rates because of its strict gun control. It’s 100% illegal to own a gun. With that, since they have very low crime rates, many do not feel the need to own a gun either and vise versa. when a gun is involved, they consider it to be a national security matter.

I don't think Nigerians make movies to have other people reciprocate.
Many Ghanians have featured in Nollywood movies, last time when some Nigerians were to feature in a movie titled A COUNTRY CALLED GHANA, the Ghanian community were against the idea of Nigerians featuring in their movies that they organized TV shows and radio station discussions about it. But after that, a Ghanaian a featured in the recently released TOKUNBO and some were being casted for the popular Yoruba series ANIKULAPO.

What I learnt about South Koreans is that they discriminate against people from poor countries or countries that are underdeveloped compared to theirs and they welcome people from Europe and America and I think they are still under this white supremacy shit and they as a people are still seeking validation from the west.

Sometimes ago their president went to U.S and he sang an American song during dinner to impress the host. They have a very strong urge for validation and the funny thing is that no matter how hard they try, the West will always treat them as the same way they treat an average Indian or Chinese person and will always refer to them as Asians. It's surprising that theu don't know that an average American sees and treats anybody from Thailand as Korea as Chinese.

However I do not think this movie was made for the Korean audience. An average Nigerian student watches Korean movie even during exams. Honestly I can say it for a fact that the Korean audience in Nigeria is larger than the American or Bollywood or Nollywood audience. It's not surprising because majority of ladies watch kdrama and the female gender is arguably the larger population in Nigeria compared to the men. It's strange to see a Nigerian teenage girl who doesn't watch Kdrama. I am not in the mind of the filmmakers but I think they want to bring back the Nigerian audience by having them look inward to see the same quality they seek outside the continent.

Reviews shows that the production quality was top notch even for a YouTube production and basically that's what you get from Kdramas. I personally do not see it as anything else other than an attempt to bring back the attention of Nigerian Kdrama audience to Nollywood. We're not trying to get them to reciprocate, we've made movies that feature locations in the U.K and other countries including S.A and I've never seen them reciprocate such acts not even the South Africans and we didn't complain about it. It's just filmmaking, money making and name making.

Nollywood is too big to seek validation from them, in movie production Nollywood is bigger than Korean film industry. Let's not talk about their production scale but let's look at their audience both local and international. They can't compete not even in the last two years so this is not us looking for validation.

South Koreans might be racists but they've been consuming Nigerian contents for a while now. There's a movie titled BLACK BOOK many Nigerians haven't seen it but that movie was on the top ten most watched movie in South Korea for a week and the languages spoken in the movie were Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa and English. Maybe they hate people but trust me, they don't hate Nigerian content. Cos their YouTubers made so many videos about Kizz Daniel's twe twe with Davido and their reviews were positive.

Short up your mouth

But they've done a concert in Africa this year though. Acceptance is a gradual process

Great Talent there, I don't like Korean movies but if they can do it why not.
Diversity is key to growth of any industry.
They should be encouraged jare.

I have noticed you just ditch nonsense on your channel without proper research. Have you even met any Korean in your life? Nonsense! Keep quiet!

We agree you can hustle but only outside Nigeria and I wonder why not at home 😳😳😳????

I loved the movie it shows how creative nigerians can be, if anyone is not comfortable watching it should base his or her life on something else

Naaaa i love what they are doing?
I love the effort.

Foolish African promote yours not theirs!

Nigerians are our biggest set back in Africa , your population can barely read or write and here u are acting a movie in Korean language how slow can u be 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

They should be learning how to make quality cellphones like Samsung. Not Korean drama.

Me I like what I see😊

Koreans are most racist and africans should not trust, Nigerians should not go to Korea and koreans should not come to africa. Most racist nation. But Nigerians have no shame you will still see them going to Korea next week.

I was among the people that said stop disgracing us when I saw the movie😂

❤❤❤❤❤❤ just coming, let watch 😊
