- Korina Sanchez was bashed after criticizing K-Pop fans.
- The host recently featured the Korean group “Momoland.”
- Korina Sanchez believes that spending P13,000 on tickets for a Korean concert is absurd.
Turns out Korina Sanchez is not very fond of K-Pop, and it is revealed in her September 4 tweet.
The Rated K host wrote, “The kids went gaga over Wanna One tonight, and imagine P13,000 tickets and kids get their parents to spend for songs the lyrics of which hindi naman naiintindihan ng Pinoy!
“The phenom is worldwide. It’s the look, I think! All Kpop concerts Ive been to are filled with screaming kids na nilalagnat! Basta, malaki ang contribution ng Pilipinas sa ekonomiya ng Korea.”
Netizens, especially die-hard K-Pop fans, found the tweet offensive. They immediately expressed their dismay at Korina’s opinion.
Here are some of the netizens’ reactions:
Korina’s statement contradicts her recent actions when she replied “Annyeonghaseyo” to Momoland after the Korean All-Girls Group told her “Maganda Ka” in an episode of Rated K.
Korina Sanchez deleted the tweet after receiving negative feedback.
