Bulgarian TV show under fire for racist and xenophobic comments towards Koreans
In a recent Bulgarian TV show "Kato dve kapki voda" where people imitate other celebrities. One of the contestants had the role ofJimin of BTS and had to preform Boy With Luv.
Before the performance the MCs of the show had some "fun" with Korean culture mentioning North Korea and the Rising sun. Jimins sexuality and his hair.
Part 2 contains suicide jokes as well as misgendering Jimin
This all aired on monday the 27th in prime time tv. On one of the largest tv stations in the country. Akin to MBC, SBS or KBS.
Later in the week. The shows producers defended the move saying:
"The reactions are exagerated, its just humor"
"The show is funny and we joke about everything"
"While fans may be hurt, we dont plan on apologizing"
As if this was not enough racism they also have done black face on the regular.
