K-Dramas Hit With Scathing Boycott From Indonesian Fans Amid Controversy

Following this, a “threat” proposed by an Indonesian K-Pop fan is going mega-viral. The comment pertains to alleged mistreatment of Hearts2Hearts‘ Carmen, SM Entertainment’s first Indonesian K-Pop idol.

I’m Indonesian, and I’m so angry about the discrimination against Carmen that I’m going to delete all the videos I uploaded on TikTok.

‘Series about Korean male idols falling for Carmen’
‘Yushi and Riku fighting over Carmen’
‘Korea’s handsome Cha Eunwoo stared at Carmen 2 seconds longer than popular idol Karina’
‘Series about Korean men falling for Carmen’
‘Even Jang Wonyoung was shocked by this Indonesian girl’s beauty’
‘The reason Korean women are jealous of Indonesian women’
‘Why dark skin is more beautiful than white skin’

…And there are many more videos.

SM, this is a big problem now.
If you don’t want me to delete my TikTok videos, immediately stop discriminating against the Indonesian members.
