Shooting Stars: Wow it hasn’t even been 2 minutes and we’ve got the offensive “Africa is poor” portrayal paired together with the “exotic” Lion King soundtrack. Seriously, we’re in 2022, Korea?
Ugh, what a disappointment. I can’t truly say I’m shocked because egregious sh*t like this is rampant in kdramas, but you’d think they’d learn something from the years of international fan backlash. I’ll definitely keep this in mind when checking out the first episode, but suffice to say, not a great impression.

😥 Is it that bad?
My sister sent me a message to to skip the drama because she knows I hate things like that.
