The uproar over Ice Cream in Korea illustrates how conservative Korea is. Even some Kpop fans - who would be young(er) - found the lyrics to be too sexy. In most places, no one would notice. A lot of International fans don't get some of the criticisms of Kpop groups/idols because they see South Korea as a modern first-world country and don't understand how socially conservative they still are. It's like the uproar over Snowdrop. They were upset that a fictional drama might not present history exactly. Meanwhile, in the U.S., we have "Abraham Lincoln vs. Zombies". Historically inaccurate dramas/comedies/etc. are a staple in most of the world. But, each country has their societal "red lines". A lot of the issues within Kpop are that Kpop going International is causing clashes with conservative Korean Kpop fans and conservative Koreans in general. They're going to lose that fight because the companies are going to follow the money, and the big money - as evidenced by BTS and Blackpink - is International. Thanks for attending my TED talk. ;) (I just find these types of things fascinating)

Eric Nam very convincingly explained that there is nothing sexual about "ICE CREAM". It's about whales, Billie Jean, biking and ice cream... Also, introducing the girls in your "See U Later" reaction as Jisoo, Lisa, Jenny and the other one... You're a braver man than me 😂

Well, the societal and technological development that took almost 200 years in "the west", South Korea did in about 70 years. Obviously the amount of "cultural inertia" must be insane. Confucian traditions and world views are still deeply rooted in Korean culture. I can imagine that a lot of people have a problem adapting their values that quickly and, therefore, become what we would call conservative. The South Korean youth is quickly adapting to western values and ethics. Whether it's good to become more like western countries I cannot say and as an outsider I would never think of demanding this of South Koreans. Not my place.

I agree, in part. Here in "the west" we're still inflicted with these old values, the fight for women's rights, gay rights, etc., still goes on. It's all part of the same package of conservative thinking - women should know their place, gays should remain in the closet, xenophobia is patriotic, etc. This struggle is going on all around the world and has been happening for a long time. Opposition to these "values" is not dependent on time, they should be opposed whenever they arise. The protesters who were mistreated, arrested, tortured, killed, were fighting for - among other things - freedom of speech. Yet, under the flag of protecting their history, South Korea has laws that allow the expression of free speech to be made illegal if it offends someone. A Kdrama was shut down because of this prior to Snowdrop. Right is right and wrong is wrong, and it can't be allowed to hide behind cultural sensitivity. I don't "demand" anything, but I get to point out the fact that Korea faces the same problems we face - they are not different because of differences in society, they are just approached differently - and claiming that we can have no opinion because we're not Korean is not correct. Sorry, but this is symptomatic of deeper issues that I have been opposing my whole life, so I can get a bit wordy. ;)
