KBS and JTBC reported a shocking image on the 13th.

According to a simulation provided by Greenpeace, a typhoon that hits the Korean peninsula in 2030 will flood major coastal cities like Busan and Incheon.

The simulation is generated according to an article published by Nature Communications about the rising sea-level and coastal flooding.

The simulation shows that Incheon Airport will be flooded, as well as the Parliament building in Seoul. Hae Woon Dae and a majority of Busan will be flooded, while the west coast of the peninsula will be hit the most severely. It's been estimated that over 3.3 Million people will be displaced due to the catastrophe.

As the Monsoon season continues over 50 days, Korean people are beginning to feel the effects of climate change "to the skin."

Experts are urging for a plan to reduce emission rate to 0 by 2050.

K-Pop is now famous world wide. While fan base for Korean music is growing and demographics of all kinds are gathering to appreciate the genre, there is one fan that is making his own distinct mark.

NunReacts on Youtube, now with 340K Subscribers, gives the most energetic, theatrical, and in depth reviews of Korean music.

He has a obscure demeanor. He is wearing a nun costume with sun glasses on, so you cannot see his face. But you can tell, just seconds into the video, that he is very enthusiastic of the music.

Despite his theatrical attitude and quircky look, his reviews incorporate literature, film, and reflections on culture and times. In this video, the nun is reacting to Lee Hi's latest single 'HOLO.'

He's freaking out every other measure. But he always shares what gets him so excited. In the span of this 15 minute video he mentions Ernest Hemingway, Forest Gump, and a general reading of our times while reviewing the song.

Nun started off his youtube career by giving reviews on Korean rappers. Rappers like Swings and Justhis have given him props for understanding their lyrics on a quintessential level.

Fans of Nun are commenting how his reviews are rich of cultural understanding and in depth knowledge of a wide range of topics. He was invited to Korea to hold interviews with rappers, and each and every rapper he met showed their appreciation for his knowledgeable reviews.

Lee Min Ho's management has declared war against internet trolls.

MYM Management put out a statement that they are compiling a data base on commenters who circulate content and comments with malicious intent against Lee Min Ho.

The management company is in partnership with Liwu Law Group to make the case, and both groups have made it clear that they intend to bring justice to those who continuously hurt Lee with false rumors and personal attacks.

Smoking weed in Korea comes with a big risk, and public opinion around it is overtly negative. You could face up to 5 years in prison for possession or usage of marijuana. There's a rapper who is trying to change this, and he is coming soon to the infamous rap survival show "Show Me The Money."

His latest album "Detox" has a very clear message and that is "I smoke weed and I love it." Even the cover art is a pile of marijuana nugs.

Not only is he open in his activism(?) through music, but he also headed a national petition to legalize marijuana. The petition was signed by nearly 14K people.

The public is interested in seeing what he would say on TV, and what kind of issues he would instigate. Though opinion on him varies, Bill Stax is unwavering in his dedication towards legalization.

Sex in a sensitive topic in Korea.

It is a taboo to speak of sex in public, and schools don't give sufficient sex education. Naturally, teens and young adults don't get a chance to learn about sex in an open and healthy environment.

The rising R&B star BIBI is trying to change this.

BIBI released her latest single 'cigarette and condom' on 8/6 in partnership with Dingo. She talks about having a pack of cigarettes and condom in her bag, and she says she's trying to normalize carrying condoms for women.

Her previous songs reflect her honest and unapologetic attitude towards sex as well.

Now that she has the platform to reach a bigger audience, BIBI says she wants to be responsible of her songs and raise sexual awareness. In this video, BIBI goes to a clinic to receive proper training.

She then invites a group of 20 year olds to talk about sex. Though they are shy at first, soon they loosen up and ask questions. BIBI, once again, is unabashedly honest.

Art is surely a means of communication that can break the status quo. Fans are excited to see how far BIBI could go with her music, and how her message would change the course of popular culture.

COVID19 might have stopped us from going out, but our love for music is still burning.

Here are 3 Live performances released in this Corona season to Watch From Home.

1. Lee Hi - HOLO

Lee Hi came back with a new single 'HOLO.' Holo(홀로) means 'alone' in Korean. Lee Hi is singing about the times she spent alone, telling her audience that it's okay to feel lonely.

At a time where a lot of us are experiencing various levels of isolation, the song comes as great comfort. Lee recently signed a deal with Jay Park's AOMG.

2. Crush - End of a Day

The R&B sensation Crush recently made an appearance on 'Begin Again,' the Korean TV show where artists travel the country to hold concerts for different people.

In this video, Crush is singing at en empty Bus Terminal. The song is 'End of a day,' a song written by the late singer / song writer and Idol Jonghyun.

The Camera captures night shift workers at the Terminal, and narration recites a poem for those who feel over worked and exhausted.

Crush serenades us with a beautiful voice. Beware of tears for the soft of heart.

3. Hwasa, DPR Live - I'm Bad

Mamamoo Hwasa and DPR Live came together to give us a smooth banger.

The video starts with Hwasa in her studio. She sings about a frustrating day, telling her audience that she, too, is "bad."

When DPR Live appears in the second verse the screen splits in two. In his rap, DPR Live tells Hwasa to cheer up. After a little bit of flirtation, he tells her that he, too, is "bad."

The genius singer / song writer DEAN has been gone from the scene for quite some time now. His latest hit 'instagram' is still mentioned and covered amongst many artists. But what has he been up to himself?

DEAN's artist collective you.will.knovv released a single called "Breath" featuring DEAN, Rad Museum, and Mokyo. The song is far from what you'd expect from the main stream K-POP industry. Over the calm and minimalistic instrumental, the R&B artists take turn to sing quietly about happiness that transcends 'things we can see.'

The video is a line of light that moves through out the whole video.

DEAN and his collective you.will.knovv have been consistent with a futuristic / transcendentalist approach to their work.

In the teaser for 'Breath,' the whole collective is seen meditating under a structure that resembles a UFO.

In the end of DEAN's last music video 'Sometimes i hear Howlin' in my head,' DEAN appears with half of his body as a machine with computer graphics.

The top comment on this video reads "I feel like Dean knows something we don't" and it seems as if he's sharing what he knows only with his posse.

A distinct feature of K-Pop is it's conservative attitude towards sex. This also reflects the Korean culture where it's considered 'rude' to speak extensively on the topic.

BIBI is raising objection towards this sentiment. She's been consistently creating music that goes against this current, and her latest single 'cigarette and condom' is a direct response to the music industry that makes sex a taboo.

Dingo released the making process of the song where Bibi is constantly met with concerns of how people would receive the lyrics. She is, however, unwavering in her decision. She explains that it'd be better for the culture to be able to speak openly about sex and protection than to keep it in the dark.

The music video takes place in a room designed to look girly and childish. Her costume matches this aesthetic, making the viewer believe it's a typical young girl in the video. This is when BIBI starts singing about sex and protection, completely shattering the frame that K-POP and Korean culture imposes on girls her age.

BIBI has been constantly proving herself as a talented song writer and performer. As seen in the comment section, her fans are mostly international. Now that Dingo, a major online platform for upcoming artists, has featured BIBI, she might have a better chance of reaching a larger audience.

However, it seems that her progressive attitude is too much for the industry. While her song is released as 'cigarette and condom' on youtube, streaming platforms spelled the song as 'cigarette and con them.'

Burberry released a new monogram and the world's trendiest stars are joining the campaign.

Nafla and Loopy, both known for their exceptional taste and execution of style, uploaded photos of themselves draped in Burberry.

The hiphop duo was invited to perform at the Burberry monogram launching party in Seoul last year, and it seems the brand and the rappers will continue their partnership.

The photos for the Korea campaign were taken by Yoon Ji Yong (@zyobb)

SAAY and Yeri also took part of the Korean campaign of the new #TBSummerMonogram

2020 seems to be the year for the ladies. We compiled a list of up and coming female artists in K-POP who deliver quality music and stunning visuals.

1. BIBI

Bibi is signed to Feel Ghood Music under Tiger JK. She has a distinct pop r&b sound characterized by her clear and enticing voice. She's been getting traction amongst fans both locally and internationally. She is soon to release a explicit single with Dingo called 'Cigarette & Condom.'

2. Katie

Katie surprised the world with her single 'Remember' in 2018. She always delivers artistically stunning visuals, and her 2020 come back doesn't sell short of her reputation. Most of her songs are in English, making them approachable for fans world wide.

3. Devita

Devia does it all, from classic R&B to City Pop. She's signed to Jay Park's AOMG. Her latest visuals feature her in futuristic settings, and it seems this is the aesthetic that has been inspiring her.

4. Sogumm

Sogumm made an appearance to the pubic when she won the show 'Sign Here.' She's characterized by her unusual enunciation and husky voice. She may seem obscure at first, but once you get hooked into her groove you'll be stunned by her originality.

5. Chai (이수정)

Chai is signed to Antenna Music. This Chicago native made her move to Korea to pursue a music career. Her smooth and rich vocals are enough to put the listeners on ease. She also has a youtube channel full of quirky humor, and I'm a personal fan of her page.

Who did we miss? Let us know of any up and coming artists in the comments.

'The World of the Married' Director Mo Wan Il disclosed the story behind Han So Hee's casting.

Mo had an interview with the fashion magazine Bazaar, and shared how the newly risen super star Han So Hee got her role.

"I mean she was pretty. She was simply out of this world. It was undeniable." He says.

and continues, "Yeo Da Gyung is a character with an overwhelming presence. I wanted to make sure the audience would see her face at the end of the 1st episode and think, 'she's trouble.'"

Mo previously stated that the cast was undecided besides the main lead Kim Hee Ae at the planning stage of the show.

'The World of the Married' was aired on JTBC and is currently streaming on Netflix.

With millions of different content pouring onto our feed each day, it seems every brand is trying to grab our attention by being more loud, more flamboyant, and over all more stimulating.

But here is a brand that speaks to us ever softly - appealing to memories that we seem to have forgotten.

(all the videos have English subtitles)

The online clothing brand ODG has launched a campaign on youtube titled "you were once a kid." In each episode ODG invites an artist to spend time with young children.

The conversations they have are funny, emotional, and quite often philosophical. The content of the videos are focused solely on the interactions between the artist and children. Though they are wearing pieces from the brand, ODG is mentioned not once in the conversations.

We seem to have forgotten what it's like to be a child. We forget how much children feel and think, and we often address them as being lesser than who we are. But this series reminds us of how invaluable a child's mind is.

In this episode in particular, children were invited to write a poem on a given topic, and a rapper turns these poems into a song. The topic: 'Loneliness and Glamour'

The result is surprising. Ha-rang (8) draws upon a metaphor of a flying bird who may seem free, but feels lonely while flying alone. Minseo (12) writes about shiny things that don't last and ends her poem with the metaphor of a peacock who opens his wings but closes them soon after.

The children never fail to give refreshing perspectives on an array of questions that the artists pose. In a internet filled with noise and lousy advertisements, ODG seems to be giving us something that's real.

Blackface has once again come to the fore in Korea.

Blackface is a shameful part of world history that should never be repeated. But in Korea, putting on makeup to appear racially Black is a topic of public debate.

It all started with a group of high school students who decided to enact a famous meme, 'the Coffin Dance,' for their graduation photo.

Students of Eui Jung Boo High School are known for taking comedic graduation photos in elaborate costumes. The students would choose celebrities, memes, or any famous image to impersonate - a lot like the Halloween tradition. Eui Jung Boo High School Student Body's official fb page released this year's graduation photos on 8/3, which included 'The Coffin Boys' in the bundle.

Anyone aware of the history of Blackface would be appalled by this photo. Clearly, standards of cultural sensitivity are different in Korea.

For readers who might be unfamiliar with Blackface: Blackface is a form of theatrical make-up used predominantly in the 19th & 20th century to perform caricatures of Black people. This contributed to spreading racial stereotypes of Black people as simple-minded, lazy, comical, hypersexual, and overall less-than, as such images were what entertained the audience who were predominantly, if not 100%, White.

Experts say the thrill of such a performance comes from undermining the "Other" as to feel superior - a sentiment that scratched the backs of Whites during the Antebellum period when abolitionists had started to gain force.

Since Black people did not have any independent representation, the images perpetuated by the Blackface performers were the extent of how Black people were perceived. These images would land on the psyche of White people to continue in their belief of superiority and land on the psyche of Black people to grow in self-degradation.

Blackface has become a taboo in Western cultures as the practice is now recognized as problematic. Such was due to activists who tirelessly pointed out the effects, though efforts continue even today as the legacy of Blackface continues.

'The Coffin Boys' have become a catalyst for heated debate. On one side, people are saying this is a racist depiction of Black people as it continues in the tradition of Blackface. On the other, people say this is a harmless parody of a meme, and to apply standards of the West in the context of modern Korea is a stretch.

The Ghanaian Korean Celebrity Sam Okyere joined the conversation, pouring gas onto the wildfire. On 8/6 Okyere posted a photo of the 'Coffin Boys' and stated his frustration.

The Korean public didn't take this well. Most comments revolve around how he is 'overreacting,' and that he has no right to criticize Korean education. Further, they are pointing out that Okeyre's post might be detrimental for the high school students as he is putting their faces on blast on his platform.

His use of the hashtag #teakpop is also being questioned. #teakpop is used for rumor or gossip within the kpop industry - usually to criticize its practices. Those who are against Okeyre point out that he is blowing the event out of proportion by connecting the students, unrelated to kpop, with the global kpop audience.

The comments are not gentle. They go as far as to say "Go back to your country, no one is stopping you" or "Stop letting him make money in our country." There are also comments on the blatant racist attacks on Asian people in America that went unchecked, pointing out how Okeyre remained silent during those incidents.

Okyere deleted his post the next day. On a new post he apologizes in Korean, how he didn't intend to jeopardize the students, and how he didn't mean to offend the public. He acknowledges his posting could've triggered people and promises to be a 'better' Sam Okyere moving forward.

The sentiment of the general public, as seen in top comments and postings, is outwardly critical of Okeyre. They find it offensive that Western standards of cultural sensitivity should be forced upon them when Korea has a different cultural and historical context.

Okeyre was cornered even further when Benjamin Aidoo, the person filmed in the original meme, made a post showing support for the students - congratulating their graduation.

Debates surrounding the use of Blackface in Korea is no where close to being over. It seems a practice deemed so problematic in one continent should be considered the same in another, especially when it took decades of activism to eradicate the problem. But some urge that this incident should not be judged according to Western standards, where Black enslavement remains a deep scar. They say it should be seen as a cultural exchange between Korea and Ghana, independent from the atrocities committed by Europeans. The question of intent is also a major player. If the Coffin Boys didn't have the intention to degrade Black people, should they be called out for being racist?

Whether or not the Coffin Boys should be seen as racist has yet to reach a consensus, but the responses serve as a thermometer to gauge the wide spectrum of cultural sensitivity. The concern is, however, whether this practice will persist - now that everyone knows the history of Blackface and its potential to be offensive.

UPDATE: A group of Gong-Joo Highschool students re-created the meme once again, with black make up on, and tagged Sam Okyere on the photo.

Even though he had to be boo-ed off stage, Sam Okyere's contribution to the conversation of cultural sensitivity in Korea had been invaluable. If you are in support of his message, sending him a DM of encouragement might be a nice gesture as he is probably feeling extremely disheartened.

The queens assembled to write history.

Lee Hyori, Um Junghwa, Jessi, and Hwasa came together on the 31st for their first recording of 'Hangout with Yoo.'

After SSAK3's success, Lee Hyori mentioned that she would like to form a team with strong femme power popstars for another debut. Now that SSAK3 has reached its end, the plan is finally coming to fruition.

The 4 divas are all characterized by their strong persona and glamorous style. Fans are already excited to see the chemistry between these KPOP legends.

Summer is already full bloom all around the world. Monsoon season is hitting us hard in Seoul but we're getting prepared for the heat to swallow us whole once the rain is gone.

The K-pop industry always comes through with bops to dance and fend off the heat to in the summer time, so we decided to make a list with some of those songs.

1. Zico - Summer Hate ft. Rain

As you can tell from the title, this isn't your average "omg I love summer!" song. Zico is straight up complaining about the heat, and the music video creates a childish setting to complete this sentiment.

2. Crush - OHIO

OHIO is an upbeat song that your body will react to before you know it. This irresistible groove will get you moving and you'll forget all about the heat, at least while the song is on.

3. Jessi - NUNU NANA

Jessi just made a come back full of swagger. This song is a straight banger. #nununanachallenge is trending, so might as well give it a go!

5. (G)I-DLE - DUMDi DUMDi

DUMDi DUMDi has a heavy Afro beat driving the song, and the young idols are showing their power moves in both dance and vocals. When the heat is dragging you down, play this song to get up and get going!

R&B singer Horim releases new visuals to 'As If We Want It'

While the K-POP industry is fueled with idols and their fans, there is a huge portion in the Korean music scene that deserves much more attention.

Horim, the smooth R&B singer is one of these artists.

Horim's new single 'As if We Want it' (싶은 것 같이) is a classic R&B song in its composition. Horim sings about a lost love where the lovers cannot feel each other's warmth anymore, going down a path of destruction already living as if they want a different life. Once again Horim delivers a soul-rich and groove driven song, staying true to his roots.

In this Music Video Horim is seen sitting by a rocky beach, singing calmly as the waves hit the coast. The camera captures multiple angles allowing the viewers to feel the overwhelming peace and nostalgia Horim must be feeling at the scene.

Hypotemp is on the production of the track. The track is characterized by its subtlety. The minimalistic approach to the composition allows the singer to discover multiple avenues with his cadence and rhythm. Hypotemp is also the music producer of the idol group XENEX.

In his past MV with Jinbo, Horim is pimpin' in a fur coat. 'Groove' was a much more upbeat song with playful visuals.

(G)I-DLE is back with an energetic summer BOP.

As promised, (G)I-DLE released their latest single "DUMDi DUMDi" on 8/3.

The music video is western inspired, with a story line that resembles the hateful 8. The video begins with these words:

"When the sun strikes the heart of the desert, six wandering souls come across each other at an outdated motel where human vestiges are barely traceable. There is a specal life story behind each soul, and together, they end up spending the most burningly compelling day of their lives."

The group uploaded a comeback performance as well featuring a purple themed outfit.

Park Seo Joon is proving to be true to his character from Itaewon Class.

The Hope Bridge foundation disclosed that Park donated a sum of 100M₩ to the flood victim relief fund on 8/4.

He is already a known big time donor.

Last year he donated 100M₩ for the Gangwondo Mountain Fire relief fund, and this Feburary he donated another 100M₩ to help the COVID 19 containment efforts in Daegu.

Alright, she's already pretty known so if you don't know her already - YOU'RE LATE TO THE PARTY. Naked Bibi is the artist you wanna get to know before it's too late.

Naked Bibi has been the latest craze amongst R&B Pop fans. It's not easy to pinpoint her style - other than that she has a clear and angelic voice, and that she is 100% honest about sex. Her songs are openly sexual, which is an unusual feat in the Korean market that tends to be concealing and conservative. Her style, both musically and lyrically, are strikingly original to the scene. We've compiled some of her live performances here:

Not only does she have an enticing voice, but she is also a topnotch performer and actress. She is known for her stylistic body gestures when performing, and she stars in all of her music videos. and. she. kills. it.

Bibi is signed to Tiger JK's Feel Ghood Music and has gained recognition from many artists already. Fans, just like myself, are just waiting for her to blow up to prove honest and genuine music still prevails.

She recently visited Dingo studio to shoot her 'Killing Voice' and teased her next single that is to be released 8/6.

tvN's 'House with Wheels' is a TV show where members travel around the country side on a RV van. Host members consist of Sung Dong Il, Kim Hee Won, and Yeo Jin Gu.

It's the season of Queens.

Jessi released her 3rd mini album titled [NUNA]

The title song 'NUNU NANA' has become an issue amongst fans when the teaser video featured the all time K-POP diva Lee Hyori. In the actual Music Video Lee Hyori is found dancing along side with Jessi at the end of the video.

The visuals are striking. Jessi is once again unapologetically herself, championing all scenes with major BDE. "Psy oppa told me to do whatever the f*ck I want!" Is part of her lyrics, and it's not hard to tell she's keeping true to her words. Jessi is signed to P Nation Entertainment, founded by Psy.

While the title track NUNU NANA features Jessi's big boss energy, she shows us how versatile she can be on the second track 'Star.' In 'Star,' Jessi tells the story of how lonely and confusing life was when she first came to Korea to pursue music.

Jessi appeared on Dingo's 'Killing Voice' right before her album dropped and delivered a masterful performance. She made sure to give a shout out to all her producers and communicated effectively to the fans that her album is coming soon. A comment read: "our QUEEN is so gorgeous from inside"

Jessi is to join Lee Hyori on "Hangout with Yoo" to start a team project with Hwasa and Um Junghwa. While Jessi proved to the world that she sits on her own thrown, fans are excited to see the collaboration of Korea's top Divas.

Seo Ye Ji is showcasing new looks in every episode of 'It's okay to not be okay.'

Viewers have been eager to know where her style comes from, and it turns out she's been partnering with Korean brands not-so-well known to the public.

Seo Ye Ji is characterized by her majestic gaze and long black hair - her outfit assisting to complete this spell.

She's often seen with a top that emphasizes the shoulders while slimming down by the waist. The dresses show little skin yet give off a sensual and elegant mood.

Fashion brand 'avouavou' is behind the design of these dresses, and this black dress worn by Seo Ye Ji is now one of their best selling items.

This crop tweed jacket matched with the same colored skirt is also designed by avouavou, completing Seo's look of sharp elegance.

Seo is also seen wearing a knitted bustier from another Korean brand 'Eenk' during the indoor scenes. It's an adjustable sleeveless with a bohemian design.

These Korean brands are coming to the fore thanks to Seo, and fans are beginning to wonder what other fashion brands may emerge from the Korea fashion industry.

The actor/singer Im Seul Ong was involved in a car accident. He was driving his car on the night of 8/1 when he hit a pedestrian who was illegally crossing the road. The pedestrian was killed, and Im reported to the police immediately.

The Road Traffic Safety Law states that a car crash with a jaywalking pedestrian can be resolved between the two parties without the court's involvement. That is - if the pedestrian is still alive.

When the pedestrian is dead the driver has to face criminal punishment. The driver will face up to 5 years of prison time or pay up to a 20,000,000₩ fine.

There are, however, exceptions if the court rules that the accident was 'inevitable.'

There was a precedent in April for a case in Yong-in where the court ruled the driver as innocent because the accident was deemed 'inevitable' due to the pedestrian's misconduct.

Jay Park broke his silence on where he stands with the Mint Chocolate problem. Not only does he say 'no,' but he HATES mint flavored ice cream.

Tablo came in with a slider to aid team PRO-Mint Chocolate. He wrote - "I once ran into Jay at the airport while I was holding mint chocolate chip ice cream. And Jay had mint colored hair. True story."

On the thread he goes on to praise mint chocolate ice cream -

The internet is taking sides. Team pro-mint chocolate is validating Tablo's decision, saying "the man has gone to Stanford. He has great taste." "Godblo with the burns" and the like.

Team anti-mint chocolate, on the other hand, is giving him the hand with "He's pro-MC? Dissapointment." "I guess he's just book smart after all." and such.

Where do you stand on the issue? The K-POP world has yet to settle the debate.

IYKYK, Musicans and music critics do not have a good rapport. While it is the critic's job to critique, this time things seem to have gone a little too far.

Se So Neon is a psychedelic pop band that's been gaining traction amongst indie fans. Hwang So Yoon, the lead vocal of the band, is characterized by her husky and low-midtoned voice.

While writing about the band's latest album and it's title song 'Midnight Train,' the critic says that the song is 'insufficient.' They write that "the ansemble and melody is too simple," and that "the vocal is hard to comprehend and it's obscure nature makes it uncomfortable to enjoy the song."

The critic continue to criticize Hwang's solo project, saying that it was a total failure. "Se So Neon lost its 'hip-ness' once they started too much emphasis on their lead vocal Hwang So Yoon." The critic writes that there were a couple songs on 'nonadaptation' that were'aight,' as a backhanded compliment.

Hwang later wrote an impassionate response to the critique on instagram. Her post starts with "Zero respect for artists.. for my colleages.. I can't believe someone who says a song is 'aight' can call himself a music critic."

She says she never made music to be 'hip,' and it's only natural to feel uncomfortable with her music. "I never made music to make people feel comfortable," she says.

Hwang concludes her post with saying "if you insist on giving your input on something that someone has put their life into, I suggest you use more 'sensible & respectable' language."

What are your thoughts on this issue? Should music critiques have the power to tramp over someone's creation? But what about the fans who want to hear an honest and unfiltered opinion?

The long feud between artists and critics don't seem to end anytime soon.

Lee Min Jung (38) posted a black & white photo on instagram to show solidarity with women all over the world. The caption reads "#womensupportingwomen" and there are currently over 8 Million posts on ig under this tag.

While the hashtag accompanied by a black and white photo has become the latest global trend, there are debates surrounding when this movement began and what for.

Instagram influencer @alyteich shared her insight, sparking conversations amongst all the women who participated in the challenge. She wrote "I see many of my non-Turkish friends sharing black and white photos of themselves as a "challenge" but not knowing the reason or origin of the challenge."

She continues to explain how the challenge began in Turkey as a way to show solidarity with the victims of femicide. "Turkey is one of the top countries when it comes to femicides. Just on 2019 we have had almost 500 RECORDED femicides." "Turkish people wake up every day to see a black and white photo of a woman who hass been murdered on their Instagram feed, on their newspapers, on their TV screens. The black and white photo challenge started as a way for women to raise their voice."

Femicide is women targeted murder, which also had become an issue in Korea in 2016 known as the "Gangnam Bathroom Murders."

Lee Min Jung is currently staring in the KBS 2 Drama series 'Once Again.'
