The Burning Sun Scandal is so much bigger than just these celebrities and speaks to a systemic problem in South Korea. According to the BBC News article, 356 people have been arrested in connection with the case. 356!!!!! Change needs to happen – women need to be seen not as toys for men’s whimsies, but as human beings deserving of the same rights and respect as men. The article isn’t an easy read, so warning you now, but so eye opening.

      It’s less on the scandal itself and more about the pervasive selling of women and abuse towards women in the club vip world in general.

        so I read the article, it’s horrible, I knew about the spy camera and women entertaining men in clubs but not to that extent. Things need to change in that patriarchal society !
        Thanks again for the link.

    This article was hard to stomach even though it’s details stuff I’ve read before. There’s a special kind of hell for those animals

      Same. Even though I knew most of the information, this article was hard to read. I hope a lot of people get jail time.

    The creepy thing is that next article about raping and sexualy assaulting fans by band members or women in music festivals. They were covering UK and that’s so scary.

      Groupie culture is just one more playground for men to abuse their power and prey on women.

    I still have half of it to finish because of urghh… but it is interesting
    I hope SK know that BS scandal starts to gain international coverage and finally properly investigate those cases. It is absurd seeing how they deal with it. If they just do it even for the sake of saving face, I take it at the moment.
