A Korean man’s street interview has gone viral after he was seen to have made some glaringly insulting comments. The interview was filmed by Cast U, a channel famous for its street interviews. While they previously became famous for their interviews asking people to rate themselves, they recently decided to try out a new format where they asked people to react spontaneously to keywords.

The interview started off highly problematic. When given the keyword “feminist,” the man immediately responded with “mental illness.” It only got worse when he gave “realistic” as an answer to the word “misogyny.”

Many also took issue with his response of “something to project” when asked about women. Many felt that he was objectifying women, especially given his previous comments. Naturally, the video is going viral both overseas and in South Korea. The video has gained over 8 million collective views on X (formerly Twitter).

My hate for humans are going up in real time.

The fact that he can even say this with his face revealed to everyone… The entire country hates women.

So feminists are mentally ill, but girls are to be protected. Misogynists (people who hate women) are realistic, but pregnancy is a blessing. WTF are you saying, make it make sense f*ck. Girls are things to be protected, but at the same time hating women makes you realistic, but those supporting the rights of these things to be protected are mentally ill? To hate women is realistic, but when these women are pregnant, it’s a blessing?

International audiences are just as appalled.

It seems like South Korea’s dropping birth rates are not a surprise.

The man in question, an influencer with over 30,000 followers, has since shut down the comments on his Instagram account.

Cast U has deleted the video off all its social media channels.
