Boycotting Japanese products

These days in Korea, people are boycotting Japanese products. The most famous example is Uniqlo. It used to sell many popular clothes. But many Koreans now boycott Uniqlo. Another thing is Japanese beer. These are quite cheap so adults often drink them, but not now.

Time to redefine what K-pop really is

The fact that K-pop music is streaming down the street wherever we go and the news that BTS is on the Billboard charts is no longer a surprise. Yet, K-pop still sucks, and needs some changes indeed.
