Dark side K POP Sub Culture?
me impacta tanto el hecho de que aún existan personas que los defiendan y sigan, es solo tan desagradable
And these criminals walking free is the biggest joke of the whole situation. Why does every government fail its people?
Another great case of justice parody, the “powerful” are never judged and condemned honestly. And the police, always faithful to themselves, no matter the country.
This world disgusts me a little more every day.
After watching this doc I couldn't sleep at all last night. It made my blood boil how they weren't even punished right, wtf is 18 months, 6 years, and 2 years for the crimes they have done!!! They quite literally destroyed those victims' lives.

Lol, this might be disrespectful to the good Koreans and Japanese, but it’s just funny how they freaking hate Japanese because of their old history (I mean we were also colonized by Japan, so I get it) but they aren’t far from their current situations when it comes to women and birthrates lol. Don’t wait for Korean women to also prefer living abroad (though it seems like it’s already happening) rather than staying at the country and marrying local men. Most Japanese men being creepy perverts are already out there, and SK is just coming out of the dark. Man, I don’t know if being well-known worldwide is good or not as it also means giving light to the darkness of the country’s culture. Japanese manga and anime went worldwide and towards west, their issues with public SA in trains and stuff went known, even their cheating culture and so much more. Korean wave came, and now their feminist allergy’s coming out. Lol.
Kidding aside, I hope the victims, especially those who remembered every single bit of their struggles during, and even those who remembered nothing and probably just realized they were victims from the news of their inhumane cruelty, will soon find peace and love for themselves. It’ll be a hard road ahead to overcome the trauma, but I hope they are supported by their families and friends and won’t give up on themselves.
Seungri and the others are just animals, not humans and therefore can’t be called men. They are worse than trash.
Sending strength to those victims and shoutout to journalists for making so much sacrifice and bringing justice to so many voiceless victims..may hara live best life in heaven 🙏
Honestly , I'm GD's fan since 2014, and BB because of him…but I always knew it in my guts that Seungri was trouble…they even warn him to behave before going to military….that pos ruined everything 😡
I have a question that I haven't seen anyone ask anywhere. Have any of the "VIPs" been held criminally liable? We focus on the idols, but what about the people who paid to have women they liked brought to them?
Those journalists, victims, hara were so brave and saved so many girls lives! ❤ hero’s
Raiva desses predadores doentes 😢😢 que deixam vitimas para todos os cantos do planeta. Deveria ter punição mais severa!!!
People who support them are
worst then trash ,and it also teach us how society can forgive ,if you have pretty face
I used to respect park shin-hye because she seem to be a smart and independent woman but now NO!!!! Knowing that her husband was a closed friend of these criminal and still married him. Also, the fact that she know that choi tae joon was named Amid “Burning Sun” Scandal and still stay by his side just doesn't sit with me. I can't support someone like her!
6 years and 2 years for a gang rape??! The way the Korean justice system does not take rape and sexual assault cases serious is appalling.
To that poor woman who had been raped: I think you are very very brave to tell your story and I wish you all the best for the rest of your life!
The Korean government should investigate into the deaths sof Sulli and Hara. I believe there is a cover-up to protect these criminals. They should never allow to make any money on Earth! The Korean government need to do more to protect these victims and take all the money from these criminals and give it to all the victims. These prison times are not enough for what they did to the victims.
Korea, japan, china no matter how much they try to separate from one another they all behave the same way
This is so disgusting. The fact they rounded up rape and molka issue as feminism. Like.. ew
In Korean movies and in real life, Korean laws are shit
After Seungri went to other countries like Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia…. lived a well-off life, opened a nightclub
I've always been disgusted of this case ever since it first got publicized. I will definitely choose the BEAR no matter what.
What are those bloody fool fans ? Fans literally? To hell with such fans bullshit!
Kudos to the reporters who worked hard in order to carry out reality and instead got trolled n humiliated but never gave up and to the lawyers who helped the victims to seek justice.
All in short … what I’m so disappointed in is that someone who’s behind the mastermind in all those heinous crimes served only for 18 months , 2.5 yrs n 5 yrs in prison ..is this for real? BIG SHAME ON THE SYSTEM .. these mfs should be gone for life imprisonment or worse!
Send Seungri to North Korea.
Consider that as an act of vengeance for Hara.
🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 disgusting. South Korea's laws and view of women are a joke. Appalling
Why all cars they use is Mercedes is it sponsored
This is the 'real' state of Korea right now. Don't be fooled.
what kind of sentencing is that bs
Ms.Park 😢😢😢🥺🥺🥺🥺oh noooo i feel so bad
Burning Sun plus Nth Chatroom scandal… Wow… What type of rapist society this is…
What??? Korean police was disgusting. How those ppls being punish so lightly. Their crime far from imagination.
RIP goo hara
Our Dear Hara who is now in heaven. You are an angel who saved thousands and thousands of women from being victimized by these demons. Thank you, Hara. You are forever missed.
6 years, 2 years, and 14 month is just such a joke
We give a big hand to the BBC for making this video, even if it's embarrassing for ourselves
Korea is rich. Every commoner in Korea carries an iPad iPhone laptop for granted. And even if you leave all that on the street bench, no one takes it. As a traditional Confucianism, Western speaking, ‘Manners’ are familiar. There's no racism. We've never had a history of why we should discriminate against race.
But
Korean children study about 14 hours a day. Even if you go to such a good university and gain a lot of experience, everyone in Korea does that. Even if you get a job at a company, the competition doesn't end.
If you introduce yourself as a feminist in Korea, you will be buried in all societies. The birth rate in Korea is surprisingly low for Harvard doctors after hearing the number.
South Korea has been recording the highest suicide rate among the OECD countries for 10 years.
Do you like Korean dramas and music? Aren't there some K-pop singers who are good at English because they went to school abroad? Of course. Which Korean mother would want to raise a child in Korea. Do you remember what BTS said crying in the 2022festa video? RM's idol situation and Korea's situation are not that different.
Fatty is a sin, ugly is a pity
Money is power and poverty leads to incompetence.
And the most important thing is that Koreans are lethargic. 'busy busy the modern society' and 'What's important is that I just do it even if it breaks down' 'Hell Joseon(Still old Hell Korea)'These are the most popular sentences in Korea these days. Koreans can't even live their own lives to help Korean society.
In the 1970s, Koreans lived their economies like crazy to the point where if they didn't live hard, they would become ethical sins, so, now? Koreans have already adapted to Hell Korea. Doctors abroad are always surprised. We are surprised to see them surprised. We're not even aware of our problems. I think Korea should acknowledge the issue of social poverty and ask the world community for help.
